I am starting to see waves of people quitting before the end of a match. Is this so you protect your win loss ratio?

Never done this myself does it even work or are these people just freezing at the same time |

I got dropped out of two games last night, so I'd vote for being dropped by the server. |

Probably a combination of bugs and frustration, maybe a few padders in the mix as well. |

I frequently HAVE to drop out of the one 5 point map. I try to muscle through, but generally end up with unplayable lag. Several of my corp mates have come to the same conclusion, no point playing that match, win or lose, once you are experiencing lag so bad the female voice that announces stuff stutters. |

There are a few times where I've gotten the horrible framerate issue, and just hung out somewhere safe for as long as I could stand so I got more isk while waiting for my squad to finish up with the game. I have a feeling some might be doing something similar, and then others are trying to protect their win/loss record.
I think the latter doesn't work, though, as I have a feeling the reason we're seeing fractions of wins on the leaderboard is you get a percentage of the win or loss based on how long you were in the game, so if you quit at the end, you get a 0.98 loss instead of 1 loss, hardly protecting your precious meaningless stat (meaningless because they're almost all random pub games, hardly a measure of skill). |

The padders will soon be very sad padders. CCP were supposed to have fixed it, though there are indication that it is not yet operational.
But the idea is that even if you leave, or lose connection to a battle, your WP, KDR, Win/loss rate etc. stats are still updated |

Unless you are in Warriors Inc, where that rate is auspiciously low. Whenever they are on a team, the team tend to lose.
Edit: I meant suspiciously low. But the number being low helps us proving something is wrong. Auspicious for us. |

It works it's simply delayed. My win/lose went down after being disconnected from 2 games. Once you join, that's it. |

Yeah, I think all that stuff is supposed to be given to you when the game ends, not at the time of you quitting/crashing. I know it's been working fine for me, but others have said it hasn't. *shrug* |

Leaving a match should be handled like LOL or a DotA match.
you can still recoonect by rejoining the game, you get a mark they shows how many matches you've left. And you only get so many a week before you get no sp or isk for leaving a match.
Also the battle finder should never fill in spots. Matches should start once there is a full room. What if you were playing lol and you joined a match to only find yourself on the losing side going 40/10, that would suck.
Also let people in battle invite in replacements. That would be ok. |

I say after the game launches and most of the problems are fixed you get half the sp you would have earned and no isk for leaving the match.
Right now there is no reason to give any penalties for leaving a match since it is only a beta. |

It doesn't really pay to quit out of a match since you'll have wasted time and not collect ISK. People get dropped from server all the time though. |

There are several gripes. The first is the most severe, and a very good reason to not play. CCP are not about to replace destroyed PS3's. |

To continue on with an earlier comment, I was in game last night and the lag was so bad that it was not possible to really do much of anything other than stammer about the map and getting killed by the few people that weren't experiencing the lag.
So I (and the the rest of the squad I was in) dropped. It was fruitless to try and continue you on and be any sort of worth-while asset to out team. |

The 5-point map needs to be fixed. A lot of players don't seem to like it because of the lag it brings. I think it's because there are so many things inside that map that it's probably overloading the server. And this is just in a beta with a small number of people in it. Imagine this happening in Tranquility while you have a fleet of 30 Drakes each firing 7 missiles every few seconds and that's not accounting for other ships in the area. |

everytime I see that my teammates are retards, sniping, scattered across the map, losing, not contributing and not using my drop uplink I place close to objectives... well then I simple quit and look for a new match. there is no point in staying, I wont get many WP points anyway cause I basically play "me alone vs enemy team".
beside that sometimes the game has serious framerate issues that can only be fixed by a restart. |

Just curious when does this count for or against a win or loss? Half way through? Any one else tracked this? Say you freeze or as some do "quit" before the end of match? Say your in a match 1 minute and quit your team goes on to win does that count?
I'm just curious as to why so many people quit a few seconds before a match finishes if they are on the loosing side?
I'm sure they just froze

There's always going to be a few legit reasons to depart a match before completion (certainly during beta); however a recorded public method to track that number as part of your stats would be welcome to call out those not sporty enough to complete a contract. Everyone will have a few but those pattern quitting will be known for their cowardice or padding. |

I've got to be honest here. I quit in DUST way more than I have in any other game.
A lot of it has to with the piddly amount of SP i will gain by staying in versus the thousands of ISK I would lose by staying in the game. The only ISK item I use is a basic assault rifle, but when the enemy is spawn camping it costs me a lot of money and isn't fun at all.
That's my logic at least, if you can call it that. |

If you spawn in the game and leave for any reason, freezing, rage quiting, turning PS3 off results in a lose no matter what. The only time it doesn't count as a lost is if the server kicks everyone back to the MQ. Trust me I know because I hate playing 10+ plus game to get my WL ratio back to where it was before a loss, freeze,etc. |
