Was doing an suicide difficulty egg destruction mission when two of the divers in the squad left. Me and the other guy switched to sneaking around the map, distracting the bugs with turrets, using the auto cannon to snipe bug holes from a distance, etc.

Used an artillery mini nuke on the last nest and got out of there.

Died trying to extract, but the mission was a success.

Thank you for your sacrifice. We are all expendable in the fight to defend democracy.

The situations where you and a random have half the squad call the mission a failure, only to pull out a 'by the skin of your teeth' success are such a rush omg.

I just started playing yesterday, but is that normal?

People keep leaving even after you spend 20 minutes collecting samples, killing bugs, and activating the TCS towers, just to miss the extract they could easily walk to.

So they get points, or face the court marshall they deserve?

Sometimes it is connection issues. My brother was having it happen randomly, sometimes right at the end of a mission.

I did initially have connection issues, then I them, I found a couple people to do missions with but people would join then abandon the mission.
