End Of Mission Early Exit.... - Guild Wars Forums

This is something that a lot of people are doing and that is exiting the mission right at the end of Cinematics. I was thinking it would be a good idea for those that drop the game at the bonus not recieve the bonus unless you compete the entire mission... Same with those that drop the at the end of the mission on Cinematics.

Now the exception of the rule - A option at the beginning of the mission that lets you decided to do the Bonus or Not or a selection to not go either way so you can get it or not... This is not a majority rule, it's a personal selection.

Well there was a long discussion a short while ago about not letting people recieve the bonus unless they completed the entire mission... but I believe the consensus was that that was a bad idea because a lot of people just run the missions then come back for the bonus. Plus... take Sanctum Cay. *SPOILER* If you do the bonus on it, by the time you come back to the dock for the Vizier to make the boat, a crowd of White Mantle is there waiting, and he dies almost instantaneously, making it near impossible.

However, your idea of the option at the beginning is new, and would somewhat solve that problem. However... this seems to me to be just too complex. I personally think it works fine the way it is.

As for the issue of quitting during cinematics... I don't understand why it bothers you. Perhaps you could help me understand that... it seems like it wouldn't bother me at all.

It's called cop out people who cannot stick to the mission. Why not punish them? If you think it's nice for people to jump ship that's your thing. I currently have had to many people leaving mission either after the bonus or right when it gets hard and we all might die.... Complex? If the option is defaulted to either or what the difference? It just keeps people honest... And beside the way the economy is in GW right, now people just want the least amount of effort they have to put into it......(NOTE: Rune Trades, Rare Material Traders)

A lot of people do this, they say they will help the group do the mission but all they want to do is the bonus, after they have done it they will just quit after the cinematic or say i have to go, they shouldn't recieve the reward for doing the bonus unless they do the mission as well, as it is not fair on the the people who haven't done the mission anyway
