Ever since the introduction of the feature 2v2 has been a very dangerous place for players attempting to keep a good record due to impatient and inconsiderate players who betray their partners by leaving the battle early or missing turns. Actions need to be taken (penalties implemented) to make 2v2 more fair for everyone involved.
partner should be given a 50% increase to their cred/xp reward and doubled battle tokens for any battle in which their partner leaves early.
Any player who receives this penalty 3 times within an hour period should be banned from 2v2 battles for the next 60-90 minutes. If a player receives this ban more than 5 times in a week period they should be banned from 2v2 for the next week.
The number of times that a player has left 2v2 battles early (retreats) should be shown on their character page and in-battle stat summary. You may even want to add negative achievements which reduce a players rating score "xp" for every 100, 500, etc. "retreats" that a person has on their record.
- Lacking Guns:
Any player who enters a 2v2 battle without a gun should be considered to be 2 levels lower when finding the players for a 2v2 battle, players missing both guns wo
- Leaving Early:
Any player who leaves a 2v2 battle before dying should recieve 0 battle tokens and only 50% of the normal creds/xp for their next 2 battles. Additionally, the remaining uld be considered to be 4 levels lower. This would accommodate for the reduced stats of the player and their reduced non-strike attack options.
- Missing Turns:
Any player who misses a turn during a 2v2 battle should have their xp/cred rewards for that battle reduced by 10% for each turn missed, if they miss 3 or more turns in a single battle they should receive 0 battle tokens for both the current and next battle. Additionally, their partner should receive a 10% boost to creds/xp for each turn missed by their teammate.
Any player who receives the battle token ban from this rule more than 3 times within an hour period should receive a 30 minute ban from 2v2
I feel that these changes would make the game more fair for the person whose record is potentially tarnished by an inconsiderate partner who has no business being in 2v2. I know some people may be forced to leave/miss turns due to a poor internet connection, but if this is the case, they should not be playing 2v2 in the first place as it isn't fair to their partners. It is not uncommon for me to be ditched 3-4 times in a row, these selfish players have seriously affected my record and receive no reprisals, so they go on to do it to another player, and another, and another, and another, etc. The problem will not got better without adding sanctions against the offending players and every innocent player will continue to be unduly greivenced.
If their partner has already left early, players should be given an option to leave the battle with no loss appearing on their record. If a partner leaves before the battle begins, it should automatically end with no winners or losers.
Post Edit: Leaving a battle early should also reduce a players faction rep by 20, causing the clan to react to their misconduct aswell.
