Getting only two or three other people on your team

There are missions like Arena of Sompek and Borg Battle Royale, where it happens quite often that there are only three or four players on the team. Right from the beginning.

Also, it used to be the case that leaving players would be replaced with other players. In some missions, like Operation Wolf or Infected Space, this still happens, but in missions like the ones mentioned above, this doesn't happen.

    I'd love to be able to pop into Sompek or the Borg Battle Royal at around level 200 and gain all the accolades for doing none of the work.
    Perhaps this explains why disconnecting players are not replaced in those TFO's.

    As this seems obvious, I considerd the possibility. Maybe they could make it such that you only get accolades if you were there from the beginning. I have no idea whether that's possible.

    Accolades for BBR are scarce, btw. They end pretty early actually, I think the last one is somewhere between rounds 40 and 60.

    My point was that this was open to possible abuse/exploitation and is completely unfair to have players dropping in to those TFO's at the higher rounds.

    Sometimes players like myself are getting continually disconnected by the ongoing never ending timed out server issues. I wonder how many others these days are too?

    In missions, I get it all the time (like nine out of ten map transfers), but in events, regular TFOs, and patrols it is far less often, like one in five or less (RTFOs I have done tended to dump on the way in way more often, more like missions, which is one of the reasons I don't bother with them much). On the other hand, I see people in chat talking about getting dumped like that quite often, so it is probably fairly widespread.
