Does quitting count as a loss?

I ask cos for a while now l quit when it lands me in an half played match or at the end of it. I quit whether I’m on the loosing or winning team. It does this to me so many times, so that’s why l decided to start quitting!
 
Yikes! Wtf! That’s my win loss ratio screwed then :(

What about leaving lobby before game has started? I do this if I’ve played a certain map to many times!

Does this somehow affect kdr?
I have been writing my kills down, I’ve had quite a few 14/8, and more recently 11/7, 19/6, 21/12, 16/8! But my kdr keeps saying 0.7? How can this be right with the kills l get?

Yes to everything. If you leave too early, you lost the match.

There are better players than you, that's why your K/D ratio is at 0.7. You need something like say... 20 kills, 5 deaths to raise your overall K/D ratio.

Well maybe you’re right but most of the time when l see people in my team or opposition, if they’re getting 20 kills they are firing the same amount of time, lol

Edit dying not firing!
 
You mean you get less kills? How many times do you kill and die?

I would also like to see a video of you using a gun? Instead Of those horrible rpg’s!

Also can someone confirm if Carlos is right? I obviously don’t want it to be true! I mean at the bit where it’s searching for players, if l quit at that bit to join another lobby, does it count as a loss?

Et voila. Here it is.

When you enter a match, you have to stay in that match until you either win or lose. If you are losing, and you left... it's still going to count as a loss. It's ALWAYS been this way. I've been playing since before COD4.

However, if you're in a lobby, and you don't like that particular map, you can leave as much as you like. The issue is more when you ENTER a match.

Actually 14/8 gives me a ratio of 1.75, I’ve had others at 21/12, 19/6 and 16/8 which would make my kdr more than 1.75!
That does not explain my kdr. That’s why l started writing them down cos l knew 0.7 was low for what l was getting.

Searching for players is not a match? It’s a lobby?

Yup. Not a match. When you're sitting in lobby, it's not a match yet. When you're in a match, and you leave... It's a loss. This is to discourage what's called a "rage quit."

I have just read your last paragraph, thanks!

It better stop putting me in a half played game or at the end then. That’s where most of my losses have come from!

I don’t suppose you know why it does that?

Back to the other thing l asked. If I mostly get a kdr around 1.75 sometimes more, why does it say l have 0.7?
If you were getting horrible K/D ratios for some time when you first started playing the game it'll take a while to make up for that (Its an all time average after all)

The amount of kills you get at 1.75 will have something to say to. If youre only getting like 10 kills per match for example, it wont take many bad matches to even your ratio out and make your all time ratio stay around the same.

Well yes l know l had a lot bad matches at the start cos l played probably much more than the average every day. I just thought it would have levelled off by now. I’ll just have to patient :)

Are you saying that quitting from the lobby counts as a loss?

I had no idea, there have been numerous occasions when the next match details have come up and I've decided that I don't want to play that map or mode and quit, but none of those are recorded in my stats on the CoD:MW app on my phone or when I look at my profile on the My Call of Duty website.

No quitting from the lobby before the match starts doesn't give you a loss
