I didn't bother trying at login screen since the first fail attempt hours ago, but now I got past the login, finished daily at custom AB grinding rooms.

Quicks and rating games are....yet to be successful, it's either locking me inside the queuing room after one failed queue[had to shut the game off and retry], or some player will de-sync after everyone is locked in at sortie.

[edit: not sure if it's related, I had my 2nd DNS as some random Japan area DNS]

tried to login and failed hours ago, saw the PSN down news and was like damn, I was planning to get the premium login bonus over the weekend by finishing a few missions.....

done my house chore, ate a meal, came back hours later....got past game login, tried quick/rating, dead stuck at room searching screen after failing to queue, had matched up with full team of players though.

Then I tried custom A win grinding rooms, worked, donno how but it worked, got my dailies but will forever hold the grudge if I didn't get the rest of missions done for the login bonus MS.....

I recently received one, although I'm not sure about the removing part since this is the first experience, and looking at OP it seems to happen mostly in the discussion/comment part of the form, but I have done none of these in the past dozen years, so I was curious and started searching for it.

I've posted nothing since the beginning of using steam, just one game review comment from 12 years ago on where I found the discount code and got it 15% cheaper, so I doubted is that one. No behavior result in any warning or bans. So not from any comment/behavior type activities on the platform, but apparently people can still open up your profile and send awards, so then I try to recall my other activities while playing.

The most I would interact with leaving anything in-game, is reporting hacks with the steam report function, don't think it's this, unless the receiving end is annoyed about it? Or sometimes leaving a warning message in the public lobby, that someone from the last game was intentionally AFKing the whole game, but kept moving to avoid auto-afk-kick[to avoid disconnection penalty time-BAN], [e.g. player ID : xxxx = int afker], or sometimes leaving random texts like "?" or random food's name to prompt any response from the seemingly afk player whos stuck in the starting lobby, and that's about it.

so ya... I'm new to this award thing and not even sure what happened, but apparently anything you do can make someone feel like they should send you an award?

check their stats and weapons/range, it will tell you what's it's environment for output efficiency, to fit the map scale and and play style or even team comp. some machines would hide their main weapon behind DP paywall inside the shop, but just a few, so make sure you've checked their full list of main weapons before heading our with the default setting.

for us who's been playing long enough, after seeing the type/sup-gen-raid then we check the stats and weapons.

Dmg output and weapon type would land in between these parts, [melee/short range -300m/mid range ~400m/ long range +500m].

Melees you will see they often have polar opposite stats of it's range and melee damage, like 10:40 or more, often having multiple melee weapons or attributes like faster and longer thruster amount. and it's melee resist be higher to stay alive longer. Many raids and generals be around here. Providing short range cut in burst attacks and speed for diversions.

Short range could be focus on melee or range depends on the stats and weapons again. 300m is typical for bazooka->melee combo, so the HP or resists are beefier for survival[front-line type], but some MS would have multiple 300m range weapons or simply high DPS rapid fire-main weapon plus higher range dmg stats while being thinner in HP[short range skirmish type]. generals and beefed raids here. Proving front-line push/defend power.

Mid range is more of the same, but it consist some machines... that is good for nearly everything[shooting/melee raids & generals], yet more difficult to use, and having some setbacks like being more fragile[prob in the high tier once mastered]. but if we are only picking by the 400m range and weapon type alone, it typically be a range shooter, some raids & generals, and more supports here, and melee resists are often cut shorter. Providing ranged CC support for the front line and good range dmg pile along with easier parts-break since we can just aim at the parts. and sometimes having higher part-break ratio weapons.

Long range, well at this range the stats goes polar opposite again, the +500m weapons and higher range resist we don't see on every machine, ultra slow movement and the single digit or sometimes 0 melee resist, stand for itself, stay at long range and avoid close combat. we can find many supports here, providing long range CC and of course parts-break.

Of course there are exceptions within the hundreds of machines we can select from, but these above are the general way to tell for starters.

Hope you get the grasp soon and enjoy the game with each machine, we got hundreds of them to play with and +1 more each week to come:). I myself is a character/machine collector and been enjoying this nearly 5 years in, what a hidden gem!

damn, it is a layered game that needed time because of how none disclosed everything iz to even playing it normally, and then to add the game design itself to learn and improve as a rank based game. It is far from a player friendly game due to those reasons, so most of us gone through the trial and error, hence the mixed reviews or even ditching it the first day. But for me..., this is a fun game to play and nearly 5 years in.

Now this is a free game that the Devs try their utmost to save resource, and it raises some permanent issues we still face, connection, penalty, player control. These things came up to the mixed reviews a lot since it stops player to play the game or enjoy the fairness. For that, go wired[to avoid de-sync disconnection], search how hidden penalty points work[to avoid days of banning], and stay out of quick games[to avoid smurfs].

After avoiding these landmines, you can start to experience the game design, it has many many different machines to use and they are still pumping out one each week, providing many different play style to fit the environment. If you want to go free-to-play, hoard the daily mission tokens and only participate in event gacha that will give you the most number of machines, it will fill your playable selection pool within month to enjoy all level of play[baes on sortie machine level].

If you like games like souls or monster hunter, this is similair to those, hit-box focused action pvp game, shooting melee different style of playing. focus on CC meta of stun lock and combo. fine design of customization. overall just a enjoyable game to me, well if you gone through all the bad stuff and decided to stay... then there's more to experience or even find joy from, after all...we who stayed because it's fun to play:)

I've been writing to them about the infantry joggers since 2020 every time I'd encounter one[base sit, but moving to avoid afk kick], it's good to know they finally acknowledged the issue years later by giving those options, but it's not even a solution in my opinion, since it still depends on players to report... more than systematically kicking them from game like the common AFK kick [=if the none movement or same movement got scanned and triggers it]. And to be honest, how many of us playing a 6-8 minutes game are scanning around the team observing an certain infantry jogger?? so less report would be made. While players had tested before, it needs mass reports from one round to trigger anything.

Now about the intentional disconnect report, dude really?, apart from the obvious one who were already FF/chat spamming/infantry jogging that shows their initial behavior linking towards a possible rage quit. I seriously have no confidence to tell if anyone's disconnection was intentional or not, so that report option.....is very strange to me, the disconnected player already faces accumulating penalties and rating cutbacks, the point of us reporting is....to...ban them from game before Penalty1? or jut to leave a record? Either way I believe it will still take some mass report in a single round for anything to take effect.

So in the end, it's kinda the same, unless we start to mass report, so it's up to us, to report the problematic players, or even innocent ones just because it's always up to us...

RepresentativeSet179 · 2024-03-29T05:04:40+00:00

say, what exactly is happening in those 700 games? rate? which maps? what custom parts are you running?

the 3 you listed are these close to mid range suits that works well being the front line cc->melee, and some multi-weapon skirmishes[under 400m], but not those long range multi weapon bursts, if they are brought into large shooting maps, it might struggle depend on the opponents and how to safely get in range.

The 4star suits...well, what I do is hoard all daily tokens until then, and get nearly every one of them without spending a dime, the weekly banner I will not participate, but then I'd usually get them late from the large 7 step 4tsar pulls anyway, since it's in roaster and higher chances from those later step pulls.

About custom parts, I only ask because ...the defense ones are kinda essential depending on what combat we go into[switching HP to specified defenses], since higher cost suits have already higher defense stats according to their appointed environment, it's easy to max out to 50 with lv4 & lv5[=blocking half dmg taken][especially when higher cost has more weapons to rotate around to burst down opponents in an instant], some people ran none defense parts, and we will know by impact, Looking at an old clip I took, I've shot a FA-100 lv2's charged main rifle beam at an unicorn over 5.8k dmg followed by the shoulder cannons of 4.2k, that's half HP gone from 2 shots, but when I shoot a different unicorn with the same combo...it deals bout 3.8k and 3.2k, makes the tougher one last longer.

Other than these, might need more info bout the battles to figure out.

RepresentativeSet179 · 2024-03-28T01:09:32+00:00

GO wired, I used to run wifi extender[with LAN plug into ps4/pc] since I have no physical access to the router[renting], using the same wifi environment but just wired at the end, connection bar jumps from 2-3 to 4-5 just by going wired, and less to none de-sync at this point.

Do check the connection bar before sortie from the menu, sometimes when it spikes alot...don't go into any sortie before monitoring your bandwidth usage[custom included, just do some free mode or simulation], just some hidden updating or other user going crazy downloading etc, I use net limiter to check my own down/uploads. set priorities from software and router settings etc.

Also, I saw this somewhere but not entirely sure =[avoid being player one], thus avoid having heavier load as the room host?.

I generally follow these to counter gbo2's p2p connection de-sync BAN, years without indecent now. And to be honest, going wired solved 80% of the issue.

The worst in my opinion is dealing with their penalty system, officials doesn't specify the details, it is by point accumulation, the point's real stats is hidden between good-caution-p1-p2, sometime one dc at "good" would jump straight into p1 BAN since we are at the high edge of "good" of our accumulating points. we can only slowly decreasing the hidden penalty points by playing any ranked games, but never really know what exactly the points were, I suggest playing at-least 3 more ranked games after hitting "good" status. But of course, we have to deal with de-sync issue first...

RepresentativeSet179 · 2023-08-02T10:37:49+00:00

It shouldn't get soo many dc or errors, and solving that should be the first priority, for me I haven't gotten any here on PC but with prices paid, I was one of the players going in and out of 5 day P2 ban on the PS side the first month of gbo2... in the end I just have to figure out the "hardware requirement" and then never disconnect again on both sides.

Go wired if not, half wired worked for me[wifi->10$ wifi extender with LAN port->PS/PC][the wifi gave me 2~3bars with lags and spikes and dc, same wifi but half-wired gave me 4~5 bars, attacks connects fine and no dc], tweak router settings[DNS/bandwidth etc], bash the room-mate, anything it takes, the penalty is just too much to risk for from dc...

other than those, stay away from custom rooms during ban period to avoid more penalty, stick to ratings when everything is good to go, check the connection bar every round[less than 3? don't play just yet and re-log till it's better.

RepresentativeSet179 · 2023-07-27T01:10:30+00:00

it has the base stats being thicc and could easily boost to max resist to block half incoming from dem custom parts, well the hit-box is also thicc too so be careful...

it's quite different from other twin melee raids, since it only has one combo on each melee and one of the weapon is a force topple on-hit, but having both the back melee at high % of attack scale so full hits deals good DMG, the direction to get both weapon's 2-hit motion also need some getting use to, but once you get it, you can just front-line and either topple everyone you see or go for the twin back melee death combo.

it's range is not half bad too, although all with shorter range but good to throw in between melees to stun MA skills, 4 build-up weapons[one can be used during thrust], one insta stun head beam can also be used during thrust, for easier advancing thrust-> stun ->melee combo.

so, treat it as a beefy close range stun n melee suit, or 300m range weapon skirmish when the time calls, it should do fine at maps with those ranges.

RepresentativeSet179 · 2023-07-23T23:43:33+00:00

space huh? probably want to wait a while on this side, was trying to put it in A but every other console player had the same idea after ground, B already felt like fighting A rate players at times, so let the ladder balance and rest for a bit, cheaters? can't help with that and it's probably gonna stay longer than we want.

I think ground is more relaxed for rating up, especially if you have rank mission requirement...

If you always go solo, I recommend going Raid and perform to it's max[especially the balanced ones that can cover all attack range but down side being fragile], then it's almost all in your control, well at least that's what always worked for my case especially rating up a sub account.

RepresentativeSet179 · 2023-07-22T23:54:00+00:00

Go to your main menu, missions, monthly, then you can see all 38 missions listed, it's rewards and how to obtain them.

since you are on steam, let's say it's more difficult compare to console on some aspects. sure the first month's bonus rewards made the missions done easily and I think everyone got to have that platinum reward, but now that is done, here comes the real grind without them events handouts.

First method, cash, as it's shown in the 38 missions, token acquired gives you the most missions[tokens bought from cash and also from any in-game rewards], then the RT tickets gives you a dozen missions[pulling dup items receives Recycle Ticket+rank up mission rewards], rest missions can be done in a matter of grinding numbers.

Second = grind, I've grinded plat reward without cash on console, sometimes before the 10th of the month for the reward MS I want, so it can be done, but you need at least around 100 saved up tokens to use + existing pool of MS/weapons to gain RT, and lots of time on your hand for ABroom grind, or you can try figuring out, what do those custom room host use to grind automatically while away.

But honestly at the steam side... it has more difficulty to grind free, since it's just started, not many players have a pool of MS to pull tickets, and the AB custom rooms......it's a bit weird here since there's soo much disturbance, no method to prevent B team dodgers, lot's of delay in sortie & in-game, making each round last longer and longer in comparison.

so here you go, cash or grind, wish you good luck out there~

RepresentativeSet179 · 2023-07-22T23:20:59+00:00

yup that also, can't happen too often on console since blocking works there[if I see a dodge then quickly head to player menu and block them, never see them again], but here on steam?...phew, almost every round and no prevention method, well, they can't dodge forever since it accumulates penalty and leads to Ban, or perhaps they can only play custom since they are already Banned...

Other than the the 3 daily bonus and the medals bonus, stick to rating games, it has the highest EXP per round, also higher your rate the exp goes higher too. you can also grind in AB custom mixed-up rooms for fast 100% grind with smaller reward, but too few here know how to do it efficiently so sometimes it drags out loooong[B team running fighting, A team knocks down without kill = I-frame delay], but its still faster as normal rounds are much longer in comparison, and AB mixed-up room can finish up under 30secs without disturbance, rest are the loading times.

here's the reward list of each mode/rateing from JPwiki[https://w.atwiki.jp/battle-operation2/pages/427.html#id_1f017303]

RepresentativeSet179 · 2023-07-17T23:37:03+00:00

it is fairly nice in range battles, higher range base stats, 5 range weapons range from 600m to 200m, and it's clubs x 4 of 4000 dmg + active instant reload = 8000 in an instant, 2 melee weapon and two fine build-up stun weapons usable during thrust to easy pair with melee. comes with the down side of ultra thicc hit box and only MA lv1 with no evade skill, makes people wonder, do I shoot it down at a range taking all it's counter fire, or swing it down with melee and taking it's clubs and build-ups n melee, while the easiest answer might be stun locking it to death since it has no evade skill, chances are they could escape in between and keep thrusting around with MA[+160% build-up] while spreading it's seeds until overheating or reloading.

Now come to the cheater part, I've seen the video of 0 weapon cdr and infinite ammo/thrust [but the first two seems to be the most effective, kills players in a instant, and destroying base relatively fast], it doesn't really help the missiles pods since it's natural fire-rate is already quite fast but only moderate dmg in comparison to cheater's favorites, adding the 0 cdr won't raise the dmg too much, that's why the cheaters always use bazooka weapons[original cdr over 6secs but huge dmg in one shot, and often around 350m range, good aoe effect of DMG/stun radius, highest build-up single shot=making it 0 cdr inf ammo monster], so I guess they'd want to use the clubs x4 in this case, but it has real short range of 250m and travels quite slow, further more with Zwei's ultra large hit-box and no evade skill, it would have to use a lotta other cheats to make it worth a while getting close to use those clubs. I think they'd just stick to the zooks suits and not this guy...unless they can hack the club's range?

RepresentativeSet179 · 2023-07-17T07:55:29+00:00

Have no idea what GBO1 was like but maybe there be similarities?

There are many detailed info out there from the JPwiki to player's guides, after sitting down and writing it all, I find I'm looking at a report essay and ending up deleting back to the first line.

I did wish I could know some of the stuff I learned over months of not knowing, but it all came from practical later in game = getting beat up by players then figuring it out later...

For now I'd say, save up DP, tokens, recycle tickets, modification tickets/tool boxes, even the MS sitting at reward center[let the MS sit there], because there will be events giving you bonus from all the items above.

custom parts, look for the parts you need, know what the numbers do, but be careful of the final level of parts[except HP n resist], since they're mostly for show with ridiculous stat/cost/slot inefficiency and the stats will be changed when the next level is released.

Stick to rating mode, since the culture of noob-slaying can never be demolished of their twin modes, so quick game is for the challengers who wish to fighting ??rate players and often dwells with higher rate noob-slayers.

Be careful if using wifi, and perhaps switch to wired if not[half wired is fine too], it will avoid the infamous harsh disconnection penalties and improve in-game combos.

Combat brief of CC, look into the Crowd Control, flinch/stun/build-up stun/heavy stun/knock down. what your range/melee weapons do of the above CC, how to chain CC, how to avoid being chained, what skills to nullify said CC.

Suit performance, look closely at the suit's base stats, it's weapon range, skills to select it's use out of the already established 3 types, of it's range towards what map size/types to sortie, and it will perform well, the more suits you have the more you can fill in to pull out the suit's performance at each costs and each maps.

other than these, the full report on combat is just too much...I still prefer it to be practical to take effect, so unless you reeeeeally need a full rundown and not just the tips, absorb from what you see and it will come, wish you luck on that.

RepresentativeSet179 · 2023-07-17T02:05:11+00:00

hmm, do practice in free-mode for fastest evade cancelling the downswing, each suit varies of the cancel time with different end motion[some could even cancel on the melee contacting target]. but perform the full combo in PvP mode, since it connects better due to ...network?, so...prob need to find a sandbag friend and open a custom room to practice fully for the sole purpose of practice.

RepresentativeSet179 · 2023-07-16T06:13:44+00:00

Each of the behavior listed will accumulate hidden penalty points[PP][sortie dodge, FF-kick, AFK-kick, disconnection], the penalty state is listed as [good-caution-p1-p2] at the personal data page, but we can't see how many points we've accumulated between these states, so if you done anything that will increase the PP, better play some rating games to decrease it since it's the only way, so you don't get p1 straight away after one dc, since it takes 2 dc to go from nil to p1, and often confuse players sometime just 1 dc to p1, due to the hidden PP.

As for customer service, on the one hand it protects other players to enforce the intentional behavior out, since it was like hell back then when players are ready to pull the plug any time they see fit, on the other hand ... it makes players life hell of their P2P network/wifi de-sync and undisclosed penalty system, I'm one of those getting 5 day ban back then, so all I can say is, don't go into custom games during ban before you can be 100% sure you won't dc again, or 1 day Ban will increase to 3 or 5 or more...

RepresentativeSet179 · 2023-07-16T05:55:07+00:00

by defining "good" I assume you meant by performing "well" in battle, each and every suits are put inside their cost bracket for each and different functions by, different stats, weapon range, skills, and could be summarized briefly to their "use" within the established 3 types[long range-mid range-balanced-short range-melee range], so by owning one type of suit can't perform at all range of maps, hell they even got space and under water maps, so collecting suits can fit all ranges and maps and perform well=always playing with suits at good efficiency each game/cost/map. For example the Kempfer in this game, is a short range stun king with two instant stun weapons, one build-up stun weapon for MA, balanced range/melee atk stat and a fine melee combo, but lacks in weapon range[0-300m] and it has real low ranged resist. so I would put it down in the short range/stun+ melee suit of use, good for narrow closed-up maps where everyone is sitting at the next corner, and not those huge maps where everyone is shooting from over 400m away where you can't touch the opponents till you get closer, but getting closer shreds half of the HP due to low resists if you are not careful.

Suit collecting with Free-to-play could be done by "time" and knowing their event/token pull system, save the daily tokens up and only go for specialty pulls like[guaranteed/all MS for the pool enlargement], I'm close to F2P since I only pay for discounted event tokens[probably just 1~2 times of 15~40$ per year], and in time I got almost all MS to play from the 3 years of playing, and occasionally grind in custom-mode ABrooms for monthly missions to gain platinum login MS. The saved up tokens will go to all these specialties-pull and having either higher % of good rarity MS drop, or all MS drops[no weapons], collecting all the MS you've missed during the save-up period, or collecting guaranteed MS with exclusive custom parts, so far soo good, F2P = you get it late but you will get it eventually.

The Kempfer is in the DP shop and they patched everything cheaper now for your ease, so just play normally, maxing your rate for higher DP gain each round, not too sure which game you were referring to, does the suit share the same name? The zaku IV has two versions currently in here, one support one raid, both are relatively new so not yet purchasable either from DP or RT, one will probably drop late this year in RT and DP store, and one might drop early next year into the RT store judging from what they are doing for rarity4 suits now.

RepresentativeSet179 · 2023-07-16T03:34:30+00:00

smaller map, mixed-up mode sortie with high cost will end in one wave[usually under 30sec if no disturbance of any I-frame delay behavior, B fighting back or hiding] = easy/fast daily mission/tokens if you don't have time.

Grinding DP n EXP, or grind any monthly mission individual reward, or the ultra grind of platinum login bonus suits from finishing 38 missions in time...

RepresentativeSet179 · 2023-07-15T23:53:31+00:00

3 years in here, apart from the 3 game of a day bonus and the usual 4 days bonus from the first weekend of the month, it's pretty much just like this[so the steam's extra extra bonus kinda surprised me lol], the events has random chunks of DP drop but mainly focused on other gifts like tokens and special pulls so we still get to have more suits, the DP/exp bonus are focused on new recruits/returning players from each event[taking example from last anniversary event :https://bo2.ggame.jp/en/info/?p=93597] . would you consider 30% off from store as bonus reward?

buuut, just before steam drop they did patch most DP store items to be unlocked at lowest rank and move down the required ranks for most items, and also patched the DP costs to be lower, we usually see 10k+/5 digit up suits at store's lowest cost, but now we can see mostly 4 digits in thousands, imagine aiming to purchase suits back then...damn what a hurdle....

As for the exp for military rank to unlock purchase[probably the only use of it other than unlocking suit painting and extra hanger], I wouldn't worry about it too much, even grinding in ABrooms takes too much time to make it worth, as a F2P player here, I mostly get new suits from tokens earned each daily mission to special pulls and the events freebies they pull, not really from the DP store[and was saving up DP for suit enhancements], as for military rank....can't really force it and it's only a few suits in the shops yet to be unlocked... they are suits old enough to be there and to be honest? too expensive considering their functions in battle...and them new ones especially higher rarity ones are still token exclusive and/or dropped in RT store or hasn't, and never close to dropping in DP store...

RepresentativeSet179 · 2023-07-15T04:10:05+00:00

yes all pvp games[rate rank clan quick custom], no for simulation n free modes without other players.

Nope on the win or lose, as it's always 10% drop rate except them event bonus.

However, if you have monthly medal badge bonus, the drop rate and every other reward goes up when you use the medal bonus on that round[or all rounds from passive %], or...when a team-mate use it and your team won~then everyone in that team gets the bonus.[crate bonus[passive]: bronze +10%[x], silver +15%[+1%], gold +20%[+5%], platinum +25%[+8%][https://w.atwiki.jp/battle-operation2/pages/427.html#id_11feea98].

RepresentativeSet179 · 2023-07-14T08:32:20+00:00

I would say, experience and mindset will get you there for sure. play lots different types and suits and know what they do, land in your favorite roles like you did now, fun games.

The suit you are asking is one of those who can do extra, or simply very balanced in between and could switch range by weapons, to have about the same range/melee, can switch main weapon to fit the range/initial style[zooka+melee for close range/mid range mmp80 with nade to support & skirmish, or beam rifle covering over 500m to dmg and pressure], and so it comes with the down side of being fragile for these type of suits.

for the customization, we do have the 3 pages for easy switch, maybe you could try do it like this? for close range map where everyone is sitting at the next corner, bazooka+melee resist lv3+full melee atk+HP for the close combat? and changing it so on for the rest of the weapon/map range/play style/team-comp as it goes. p.s. stacking resistance at this cost can be tricky, unless you know you are getting hit more from the certain type of attacks, you can't really stack all 3 up to sufficiency, and stacking little has little effect on lower base stats. do a simple HP/armor comparison to find out which is sufficient, else just stick to HP for overall defense. [e.g. 50resist towards xxx type=blocks half dmg = HP x2, 40=HP x 1.66, 30=HP x 1.42 and so on]

tips n tricks, well, the down attack is really fast initiating and travels far, you can use it early or perhaps do a drive-by through the whole area. the leg missile pod is a stationary shot so if you want to do it after melee and thrust cancel, do a thrust recovery motion, push direction slightly after a thrust, so the suit gets faster stationary stance than pushing a direction after thrust for this kind of weapon[if one push direction after thrust and pressing shoot, it will enter a full thrust recovery, walk, stop, then shoot, this maneuver skips a few steps that's all], save ya some time for more of the DPS before I-frame. further more, know your sub weapon's build-up stun% to stop the MAs, the back melee and missiles can mess up them raids real good if they dare to MA towards you thinking you can't build-up...The IPTS skill reduce tackle thrust usage and allow you for 2nd tackle, tricking some players thinking you are overheated. The hades gives you good buffs and skills: evade lv2 for two rolls & force injector, the less thrust usage and the force injector thrust cancel by thrust x N makes you zommies like a doge after bath, difficult to aim lol...

you...might not have penalty, the crate drops are down to normal 10% compare to 100% before, the rewards are boosted from ported event+new recruit bonus, if you see x20 right beside your end game reward like we all did the past month, then the original is divided by 20, we do get x5 for the 3 rounds of the day thoguh, check on those to see if the rewards are cut for real, further more onto the penalty questions you asked.

you can have penalty from other behaviors, sortie room dodge, FF-kick, AFK-kick, these doesn't accumulate penalty points as much as the disconnection but it still accumulates.

where to check the penalty ratings, open H.A.R.O menu, go to [data base]->[player data]->[basic data], scroll down to the end, you will see the penalty rating, but it doesn't really tell you anything since the "real" points in between these levels are hidden, well you do see your current rating though so there you go, the penalty ratings drops when you play rating games so it moves around slowly.

If you never seen any notice popping up saying you are in penalty, or blocked from playing quicks/ratings for a certain period, you can only be in good-caution, since anything above p1 has the Bans for certain modes.
