Best way to get it addressed is to whisper WoodenPotatoes and ask him to make a lore vid about it so the devs will take notice.

Your second best option is to try to get some drama/hype going about it on reddit (aka the actual GW2 official forums). Devs do not read these forums.

Didn’t they change it last season so negating the loss of 4v5’s is harder? I’m sure they changed it so that if a duo d/c’s it’s still a loss, also I think if it is a legit solo d/c it has to be quite a lengthy dc to revoke the loss.

Anet please respond…. lol

If someone on your team is disconnected for 2 minutes or more, you will not incur a MMR penalty should you lose. Unless you queued as a duo with the person who disconnected, then you do lose MMR.

seams fair, but if the person is coming later then 2 min back and your team still win the match shouldn’t there be no penalty at all? This is implemented to avoid match leaving but certainly there is room to finetune.

Maybe it’s unintended but it affects MMR gain too not just loss. I remember playing a match last season, tryharding our kitten out to win a 4v5 which we did, only to be slapped in the face by a whopping +0 MMR for it. It was the biggest letdown I have experienced in any competitive game so far.

still counts as loss for placement…. which results in easily 10 wins needed later to make up for gap those losses create

That’s garbage, I had a thief during placement who was disconnected until we were down 300 and he came back and we still lost the match and the placement. So stop lying.

Has anything been changed regarding the duration a player has to be disconnected?

I thought that it had to be over 5 min in the past and if the player came back towards the end that you still lost rating.
I had a player literally being offline for the majority of the match, just to come back at the end of the match literally 1 min before we lost and somehow still lost rating (1 or 2 seasons ago)

I’ve been told that it was always 2 minutes. We may have had a bug 1 or 2 seasons ago that could have accounted for what you experienced, but from my understanding, that bug was resolved.

Yes, but placements are still being count as lost even with disconnected players.

The loss is there, but behind the scenes, it doesn’t count that loss when determining your final placement. So only the 9 valid placement matches count in your starting MMR for the season.

How about you do what other games do and not count the whole game and move them back into where they queued from so it’s not a giant waste of time?
