Like so many people did this, what do I missed? you bypass crewlock or something? like for whatever reasons you don’t wanna play why not just quit without spawning so you save some lions or better yet you don’t drain the team tickets for nothing?

There is a strategy when grinding one specific vehicle where you take some other ones with you, and if you get a map or tier or don’t want, spawn and die in the fodder vehicles until you can’t spawn the one you want, and then quit. Avoids crew lock for the one you want, and larger lineup size lets you do this multiple games in a row.
With a 5 size lineup (max for free), and only full uptiers, you will run out of SP after j out twice (with no spaa, first spawn puts you at 350 sp, second puts you at 150, remaining costs 300). This means you can do this twice in a row, and by the third game, the first crew lock will have expired usually.
This is my understanding. I never actually do this

Fodder vehicles to take the crew lock for you when you on unwanted maps when you want to statpad another vehicle

They skip the map if they don’t like it. Now you “killed” when you j-out and don’t get a crew lock.
As example:
Also now you can get more more sp for death via j-out than spaa 1st spawn cost)

They already been doing this even before the recent update where J out an undamaged vehicles credited to enemies
They only introduced that in Sky Odyssey. I know for sure that this didn’t happen before, because I often j-out from Fox after capturing a point, and until Sky Odyssey, my deaths weren’t counted as kills for anyone and fox was locked due j-out.
If gaijin would let me ban more than 1 map i wouldn’t have to do this

I wish there was an option to ban 3 maps, just like we have the option to dislike 3 maps for those without a premium account. would help a lot to reduce these cases.

It’s scary to think how much money I’d be willing to spend on this game if I could buy extra bans.

Didn’t know this was a thing. Gonna start doing it now. Gaijin better never give me Port Novorossiysk ever again!

probably has something to do with maps not being compatible with certain vehicles so they sacrifice some of the lineup at the beginning to use the last choice so that restriction timer consumes itself while playing and they can jump faster into the next match
or just for lols
Don’t know but Gaijin needs to address this thing because on Battle mode if one of your teammates will start doing this you might lose
I had a match today were we lost by 3 points. At the start of the match,one of ours J-out 3 times. Without his behaviour,we would’ve won. In Battle mode, literally every point counts
Even in normal gamemodes, I have had a few matches where we have full map control and all points, but barely any tickets left and lose because an enemy did a suicide bomb attack
Already happened, 30 seconds into the match two players did this and already quickly 0-5 and we are two players short lol they somehow do this with reserves at top tier
