Leaver Penalty - Needs Fixing

Cryptic, please come up with a system that allows a player who is left alone in a PVE match (Advanced or higher) the ability as the LONE player, after all the other players have bailed, an option to leave the map without penalty.

Once again I found myself in a timed Advanced PvE and was the ONLY PLAYER LEFT and didn't feel like sitting there for 10 minutes while the counter ran down.

Being hit with a quitter penalty when you are THE ONLY player in the match is a bit absurd.

As we all know you cannon win an Advanced PvE by yourself.

Thank You Cryptic for having the leaver penalty, its nice to see quitters punished, but please, please fix it so that players who are left alone in a PvE can leave without penalty.
What happened to those unique forum ranks I paid for?

    The penalty works fine but, what isn't working correctly, is the fail system causing the leave mission w/timer to appear like it is supposed to for every mission.

    Unless this shows up due to a fail, than you must remain in mission for roughly 15mins actual game time, otherwise you become subject to a possible leavers penalty.

    And it would be great if they could fix the second problem, that you get a penalty after the mission failed. I am tired of getting a penalty just because we missed the optional and because no one seems to know the meaning of "optional" anymore

    Look, I'm not gonna say you should be expected to 1-man a STF, but I am gonna tell you it can be done. I know for a fact that ISA and CSA have been one-manned, and likely HSA has as well.
    SCM - Crystal C. (S) - [00:12] DMG(DPS) - @jarvisandalfred: 8.63M(713.16K) - Fed Sci

    SCM - Hive (S) - [02:31] DMG(DPS) - @jarvisandalfred: 30.62M(204.66K) - Fed Sci

    Tacs are overrated.

    If that person only pushing 3 to 5K DPS, you might has well forget it.:mad: He can't do it. But, I do agree with him though. If the whole team leaves, why SHOULD you be pushined for some else action? :confused:

    I tend to agree. getting penalized because 60% of the team decides to bail is a bit old, if they can't finish it they shouldn't start it. it's not just their time they wasted but other peoples time and effort as well.

    While I agree it does suck, waiting a full 15mins. to leave penalty free though, is imo much better than the time wasted in mission, than be bammed with a 1hr.-2hr. penalty on top of it!
