It is what it is unfortunately.
For my own part I would like to see relic give players more control over the abandoned crit by only allowing it to happen on vehicles with a damaged engine or destroyed main gun. That way players would be better able to predict when it might happen and could attempt to influence the odds with mines/AT nades.

Abandon needs to be changed so that its somewhat predictable and allows more counter-play.
Something like:
Immobilized + Death = Abandon
2 Heavy-Crits + Death = Abandon
Base territory + Death = Abandon

Reverse it, always abandoned unless those things.
And then no one ever complained about light vehicle rushes ever again when the rushers barely pressured with them out of fear of giving them to the enemy

You want vehicles to always abandon? I dunno, I can't agree with always abandon.

It sucks.

Nah, don't really want to. Personally think I could live with it though, would be a very good remainder sticking in your head at all times to not YOLO your vehicles...and I remain certain there would be many like-minded people to you.

It needs to be more consistent yes. It has a way too large impact to be so random.
All posts made are about situations in 2v2's. Not a 1v1 player.

This makes most sense for game play sake and to provide a degree of realism as crews typically abandoned their vehicle only when it was immobilized or engine was on fire or damaged in which case they would try to escape bit of the vehicle was functional it would make more sense to try to drive to safety.

AM I the only one who likes the abandon mechanic?
It is though God by command has withdrawn every other throne.
And God is saying 'No. These people will deal with me alone.'

Nope, I love the abandon mechanic too. It creates this really nice and crazy rush in the game where players fight incredibly hard for it. As much as you can lose the tank to the enemy, the enemy can also lose a lot of units attempting to steal it
The game would be incredibly boring without all these little things I feel

Hell no, a lot of people love the RnG mechanics that add adrenaline filled emergent game play to CoH, but recently a few players have been pushing this new "predictability angle" were all RnG must be stripped out. I disagree strongly with those players.

Permanently BannedI hated it when my two of my t34-85s got abandoned right next to each other. On the other hand, I loved it when I stole an abandoned King Tiger in a 1v1 on Semoisky summer.
Goes both ways I suppose.

Whenever I face USF as OKW, it feels like I have been strapped down into a mental hospital wheelchair, with legs that can't reach the floor to move myself forward and a nurse is trying to move the wheelchair backwards whilst I have to race a formula one car for a best of three laps.
It feels handicapped from the start

Personally I think some abandoned vehicles should get a little extra HP once de-crewed and take fire dps or something which eventually destroys it, in addition to reducing the rate vehicles are abandoned. Adding a way to make it player influenced rather than exclusively random would be great as well. Introducing small changes that improves the already dynamic combat keeping while competitive matchmaking in mind.
It'd be such a shame if a tournament winning game is decided on a lame abandon, which is a decent possibility right now.

Count me in as well. RNG is so amazing when it works in your favor, and even when it doesn't, it adds a special silliness and flavor to the game that helps set it apart.

The best thing about the abandoned mechanic is it can punish players who make a push and get abandoned with no units around to either recrew the armor or destroy it. In that sense it serves a purpose to bring some extra risk to YOLO'ing your armor into an enemy's base to finish off units or what have you.
