During this past week, has anybody else noticed the number of times players “drop out” of a battle? Nearly half of the battles I’m playing, at least 25% of the players disappear as the game starts.
In levi invasions, a half dozen times, we had 4 players started up, but then one never loads, another disappears, and there’s just 2 of us left. You know how that ends. In evolution, during half of those battles, 8 players were listed, but when it starts up, there’s only 4-5 of us still on the list. Same with BFU; both teams start with 4 people, then all of a sudden, either my or the other team loses 2 players early on. Something’s going on.
This should be worth 3 days of premium as compensation! 
I always have a long loading screen for the first battle, then spawn in late into whatever battle it wanted me in. Not to mention the queue times.
Once I am in battle and then go into the next one it’s usually pretty fast though. The moment I leave series of battles for any reason, the long queue and loading screen happens again upon retrying.

Maybe the other people are having similar problems?
Just an hour or two tops i was in this battle and i found it strange, basically it was a patrol mission in next step mission
normally there are bots in the teams like in any another mode.
normally there are who that give up a game if i the other team has a certain build / player…
but i never saw this at this level
probably problems at the players side?
One of them is listed i the game but it’s not on the final scoreboard
The thing is, it’s been happening too often this entire week. Even as recently as 10 minutes ago, we started an evolution with 8 players listed during the ten second countdown; when the battle actually started, only 5 names were shown, one of whom was shaded out as if he was still loading in. He never fully materialized. Maybe the XO virus is really, for real? 
Targem is trying to forcefully push the 6vs6 on PC by purposely degrading the server quality.
Nah, things like that were happening even 6 years ago
Mostly because Yandex servers are shit, and entire RU region is hosted exclusively on Yandex servers
