Leaver penalties, matchmaking is a joke, too many players thinking it’s the arcade mode, there’s just no reason to have it anymore. I would rename competitive and just keep that as the main mode. Make payload not so long and I guess letting others leave the lobby before the game starts would be asking too much because flashpoint is still terrible. I accept push but flashpoint is poorly designed.
You mean we should get a casual chill mode instead?
Yes please

Sounds like you dont like overwatch much, because all these complaints have been said about everymode, not even comp can escape accusations of a a bad MM or people not taking is seriously.

Damn if only they didn’t try to turn quick play into some psuedo comp off shoot, and instead left it as the casual quick match mode that was there for people to not play as seriously since ya know… IT ISN’T COMP. And that’s how it was for 7 years before they decided to start changing it for no reason.
But classic blizzard tbf. Take things that work fine and proceed to change them into worse versions, when no one actually asked for that.

There has always been punishments for leaving qp. They werent effective. Leavers ruin match quality. To quote hillary clinton, gm top 500. “You can put the leavers into what i call, a basket of deplorables.”
No one likes leavers. No one wants you in their games. People want to chill and relax in qp, not babysit children or adults who act like them. Find a new game. If you feel like you need to leave games, then you clearly dont enjoy the game and should head to greener pastures.
all it needed was a regular qp in arcade and have a real unranked besides ranked. 2 rounds, real overwatch, no rating or with rating. But we know how these guys think about new cards you can choose to play.
Rather less options than more, gotta force these players into modes they dislike or into a break sounds much more profitable.
It’s a casual gamemode. It doesn’t matter.
If people want to leave because they aren’t having fun in that specific game, they should be allowed to do so. It literally means nothing.
Like dawg if I’m just trynna chill on doom, I’m not staying in the game where mfs feel the need to hard counter swap me going cass sombra hog in QUICK PLAY. I’m simply not. I play for fun, that stuff is corny.

Corny is leaving a game and making 4 other people wait for a backfill because you wanted to rage quit. Again, im not babysitting children or adults who choose to act like children.
Nothing to do with acting or being a child. It’s how it works in literally any other video game lmfao.
People play games for fun, they are allowed to leave the game if they aren’t having fun. It’s just quick play.

It doesnt work like that in LoL. There are plenty of games where there is no backfill. And backfill is there for when something happens and you cant play.
Not “I’m a Doom otp who cant deal with being counterpicked so im just gonna go cry and lobby shop til i can find a good game”. You are the reason why there is leaver penalties.
Most games do…
Most games don’t have penalties for leaving. You can nitpick the few that don’t all you want, doesn’t change that MOST don’t.
Good insult tossing man! Doesn’t change any of what I said. If you don’t want leavers and you want a cleaner experience, go play comp. That’s not what quick play should be.

Ah so your 100% fine with people who smurf, cheat, throw, ect because its casual and doesnt matter then?
It is what qp should be. Always has been what it should be. I like how me explaining your behavior is an insult. Lol.
I think there are many games with penalties for leaving casual matches

Isn’t that the point of the whole game, including comp?
His definition of fun is playing a character where hes not counterpicked and the enemy plays like 5 year olds. That way he can type gg ez at the end of the game and think he did something.
The problem is that, without leaver penalties, the mode works for nobody. By design, this game doesn’t work 4v5 because engagements revolve around team fights. This isn’t CoD where you can still run around and get kills while the game is backfilling; the match effectively stops being a match until the next 5v5 engagement.
No amount of balancing or matchmaking improvements will keep people from leaving. They will leave when they’re losing if they can, so they have to be prevented from doing that.
The game straight can’t be played, casually or otherwise, without full teams on both sides.
