Hello,
I would like to start by saying that this is not a feedback made because of bad game, angar or any other negative thoughts. I just have seen this happen a lot and would be really glad if it can be made better, fixed or however you want to call it. I love this game and I hope people agree with what I have to say.
1 - There are a lot of people who are leaving at any time in the game just because they see that they are not going to win or just had enough. And I know that there are some modes that do have penalties but I believe that all modes should have them. Leaving the game just makes the game unpleasant for both their team and the enemy team. Yes winning is fun but let's be honest we are not getting anything from winning except maybe good efficiency. That being said there are some people (Like my self) who don't want to see the end score and leave right before the scoreboard is shown. Sometimes in Survival when I do that it counts it as leaving in mid game which i am never going to do (Unless my internet stops).
Possible solutions (just ideas): Maybe if we had more time before the scoreboard is shown so people can leave and start a new match or like some other games where the moment the match ends you can start looking for a new one. As for leaving maybe just make it so that people will not be able to play PvP for 1 hour (or more) if they leave 2 times in 24 hours. But don't ban a player for life just because they left!
2 - Once someone leaves there is the very low chance someone may join the team if I am playing 3v3. I know that a lot of people don't want to join a match and see that the team is losing but it is also a really bad move to give hope to the team with less players that someone may join and help them even the odds.
Possible solutions (just ideas): As we have options for both Team match and Freelance match maybe add an option for people who want to help players with less people. This options will look first for teams that need help and if it does not find anyone it will just start a fresh match.
P.S. If you add the Leaving penalty I don't think that there will be a lot of games with leaving players but having this option will really make some people who want to help others happy.
3 - Another problem is the Report System. We can report players if they are AFK but once someone leaves they are gone for ever. We can't report them for leaving, not only that but even if they have used the chat we can't do anything with the persons name. Why do we have a a choice to report someone when we can't even do it once they leave.
Possible solutions (just ideas): Maybe made it somehow to see their names so we can report them in some way during the game or after when we see the last result of the match (for people who don't know you need to be in orbit and press "W" or the "Up arrow" if you are on console).
I know that this is not a major problem but it is something that will improve PvP in another way that people may not realise. So as I said I just want to point this out. Weather you listen to this feedback or ignore it I at least will know that I tried. What ever happens I believe you will do what you think it is right and if you fail there is always room for improvement as we have seen you do in the last 7 years. I really love this game and I know that Bungie is doing a lot even if some people don't see it.

Won't happen because it would incorrectly punish people who's internet just goes out at random times and there already is restrictions in place if you leave games early for games like gambit or even Comp. If you leave early in the game twice in a row you receive a restriction.
