Game needs a punishment system for leavers, and an incentive system for staying in consecutive games. Say, don’t leave before mission end and get some free stuff after 10 games.
And if you are this player, you will always be a loser who only wants EZ wins.
Are you crazy?
I have completed numerous runs thanks to the leavers that made a bot spawn to ress the last survivor.
People might be leaving for any number of reasons. Its a stressful game at times and the AI director can drive anyone to need a break!
Wouldn’t add a punishment though, its best to go easy on stuff on like that in non-competitive games. Sometimes people really do gotta dash away quick, and they don’t want to throw the game because of a 5 minute afk.
On the other hand, I think encouraging groups to stay together with a little consecutive bonus, thats a good idea. Might even be a small step towards in game groups and communities forming.
They are already punished for leaving, they don’t get anything. However you get tons, as you get a Bot instantly and a new player after a few seconds. This has saved many runs… It is almost like they should add incentives to leave if you die, because it is simply better for the group if they leave and makes it much harder if you stick around and wait for a rescue.
Better yet is if they actually add gameplay to being captured. Like instead of spawning and simply waiting, you can break free and try to take down your captors. If you die, you get moved further up, if you survive, you can solo back to the group.
This adds risk/reward to being captured. Could be fun and a good way for those that die to get better at soloing difficulty enemies.
I don’t like the feeling that leaving is incentivized and is the correct move. Like, in VT2, no on dips in a clutch situation. You stick around and lose together and that feels… more right somehow.
No.
You have to fight them all bare handed.
Break free and stealth back to your teammates.
That feels biased towards Ogryn! I’m ok with this.
I am baised towards Ogryn in this case.
if only the game had AI bots to fill in when someone leaves. and a very good system to let other people join half way through
oh wait… it does!
i can’t tell you the number of other games i have played in the past that, don’t let people reconnect when they crash, that don’t have a way for players to join an vatic mission, that don’t have a proper matchmaker system
this game does everything right. if your still finding things to complain about with, what random humans are doing. maybe find a group of friends to play with. very a microphone, the game has voice communication that works, talk to people, make friends, find other people with microphones, join a discord server for darktide players, all your problems disappear
