This is silly. Nobody will ever, ever press the "lose the match and give the spawn camping team slaughtering me some of my stuff" button instead of the power button on their console.

It was kind of a disheartening weekend, seeing high level players I respected parking on the towers, quicktossing REs, and quitting out of matches simply because their team wasn't winning handily.

Yes, the lack of grouping and the constant search for new exploits are very annoying, but if you care that much about your beta KDR, why not just quit while you're ahead and await the final release?

Where is KDR mentioned anywhere in this thread? secondly you'd be surprised how many people would wave a white flag of surrender and minimize their loses by simply forfeiting a match. By surrendering not only would they get a lose, but they would also get some of their SP and ISK. When people PS quit out of games they lose everything, and did nothing but waste their precious time.

I mean, what else is there to do after being pushed behind the line but take out cheap Swarm Launchers and blow up tanks? You'll never get a vehicle down, and the prototype assault guys will probably slaughter you even without tank support.

Just because the KDR is really the only "loss" that would ever require "minimizing." Why quit at all when you can strap on some free stuff and fight to the bitter end for a few extra SP? Of course, if we remove the redline and let the Protomen of the world walk up to our front doors to shoot us in the face as we spawn, then maybe the economics of the situation would fall more in line with the psychological aversion to losing that causes ragequitting.
