Mid game everyone gets kicked?

Post » Thu Mar 05, 2009 8:23 am

(Stupid question) Has anyone else been playing and then halfway thru a match the lobby empties leaving you in on your own? Then if you are to quit that lobby it will count as a loss messing with your win/loss ratio. And to add to it any XP or dog tags earned are no longer available.

They say "patience is a virtue" well Crytek mine and many others is wearing mighty thin.

This happened to me once at the beginning of a game of CS, so I just racked up points and ran around the map and grabbed ledges, kicked cars, etc. to build up some PWR xp

Not a bad idea, but when there is 6 plus minutes left i find it a little boring. It happens alot in FFA and to be honest its starting to wear me down as far as wanting to play the game, i was really hoping for a complete game for my 40 pounds sterling as the demo had grabbed my attention. Alas 40 quid lighter i am disappointed to say the least. For me it says something when the Website forums are full of negative feedback and the Devs appear to be doing nothing to tell the community whats going on. Very poor PR on Crytek's part and now there on about map packs, it's all about the £ and $ not about a satisfied customer base.

Yeah, but it has only happened to me once and the moment everyone left, the game ended resulting in a draw and not a loss.

Oh man you've got no clue what being in an empty server is like.

I was (and have been a few times) in an empty server in Bad Company 2 and considering how the counter's take at least 15 minutes minimum to deplete, you can go mess around to your heart's content for as long as you wish if you choose not to capture any of the flags or objectives :D

This happens to me nearly every game I play, sometimes it ends in a draw, even when the scores a far from equal, and the game ends. If you try "Joining session in progress" of someone that was in the same match you were migrated from you will find, more often than not, they are still playing the same match on the same map. If you stay in the duplicate game other players will begin to join, but that is hardly beneficial as it is slow and generally never reaches a balanced team, usually becoming 2v1 on fairly large maps which everyone just quits looking for a real game. In objective games you can stick around and boost, but it is very boring and more than a little pointless.
