In PvE, a person can just sit in a spot where people can’t hit them for hours, and if you leave game, you forfeit all your rewards.
I propose a vote to end the game, should everyone but this one person die.
What if they have a shot at beating the mission within the allotted time frame? There’s been many times where all of my other teammates up and died, leaving me to finish the thing on my own.
I can’t count the number of times, anymore, that I’ve been left solo to finish a mission due to team members derping out. My personal feeling, if you didn’t have it together enough to actually stay alive an participate for the win, you need a sit out to re-think what your doing. Maybe even watch an learn sometime.
Granted not every solo person left is a doing the right thing, an not every person that died before mission end was doing something wrong. But those cases are rare.
So no, I’d rather not have some group of pleebs that don’t have the skill to contribute decide that I should forfeit my mission rewards. Go cue up some other ships an suck it up.
I have come back solo to win Blackwood Shipyard for our team despite the odds being heavily in the favour of the Punisher. I suspect if it were up to my teammates they’d have just said “oh, he’s a gunship - we’ve lost! Vote to end!”
Not for PVE, but certainly for combat recon when some lone ballbag decides to run the other side of the map. Of course, it should self destruct their ship…

I understand the feeling of having to wait for a player to die in PvE. Even if they do manage to complete the objective, it will take a disproportionate amount of time. But you all started together, and they have a right to try for the win as much as you do. There’s a time limit and if they continue to do nothing, they won’t get anything out of the match either. If you are certain it is forfeit, you can actually tell them in chat your conclusion, but it is up to them to quit.

If I remember correctly, extending the game needlessly in that way is considered a bannable offense, and can be reported.
There’s also a chat command to start a surrender vote.
