Please stop playing any multiplayer game because clearly you are not fit for it to play it without rage quitting whenever the game is not going your way. No one likes a spoiled person who leaves the moment it gets tough so how about you stop being the problem of a lot of communities for making the game experience worse for others.
By this note why don’t the developers change the penalty for leaving games in any mode ? Clearly no one cares enough about an exp penalty. So how about leavers can’t join a game for 15 minutes, and if they still do it multiple times ban them for the rest of the day or 2.
To all who lump in everyone who has complaints about something into one big straw man so that they don’t have to actually think about the issue; please stop talking to anyone ever because clearly you are not fit for human interaction.
in comp if you leave you get banned for a bit and if you do it more than three times you get permanently banned or something
in QP if you leave a game nothing happens
you don’t even get any XP from leaving a game early, in overwatch 2 they should make it so if you leave in any game you get a time out or something
They should do that now because those who leave constantly will not stop doing it. It really disrupts the flow of the game for those who care about QP, MH or whatever mode.
If people going to complain they dont want that because they had to leave because of personal issues. Well then you don’t care about that 15 minute time out since you are busy with your personal issues anyway right ?
although it’s annoying that in comp you will get banned for leaving the game early when the problem is about your internet connection
if you have bad internet connection, you won’t be able to play comp
in OW2 or even now they should make it so if you leave because of internet issues you get like a small time out, not getting banned
Some people choose to play qp instead of comp when their internet is down. Its not fair to start banning someone all day because their internet failed them. Theyd just stop playing the gane altogether
I wouldn’t leave in comp but QP or Arcade? Why would I stay when I get back filled into a lost match? What should I do when I get into a game and see that the enemy is 96% of the way into their second cap? What should I do when the enemy has full held the team in spawn on a payload map.
Should I stay and hope that I as an individual player can full carry the team out? Despite the fact that we know there’s very few players who can actually solo carry a team?
No. Why wouldn’t I just queue again and get a game where I can actually play?
If you consist in playing when you know you internet is failing for the day you think everyone needs to suffer for it ? How about you fix the issue and then start playing when you have fixed it ? Really who in their mind would even think off experiencing a session of online gaming where you dc all the time.
You notice 2 dc’s because of a faulty internet you fix it or wait till its resolved and not let other 5 people down. This way you don’t get banned for a day or get a longer time out, because if you think its ok to dc 5 to 10 games making your problem everyone else their problem its quite selfish.
You are really unlucky or exaggerating the issue, i have barely any games in all these years i had an issue where we where camped or i joined a game with 1 minute left. Mostly this is either a defeat screen or when the enemy only capped the first point and i still managed to win some of those games with my team.
I am talking about these kind of people who leave when their team doesn’t get the first cap, or after the first round. In short they can’t steam roll the other team or again basically it does not go their way and they leave half way in the match.
Yesterday I played about 10 matches. 3 of them I got back filled into these types of matches. It’s not super common but on days where I sit down and play a ton I run into these matches several times.
The system you propose yes it punishes BM but it also punishes unlucky players who get tossed in these matches as well. I have stayed many backfill games where someone left because it was looking rough and I have also been one of the teammates when we had a bratty player leave. I know sometimes all it takes is that one player leaving and a new teammate to pull the win. However sometimes we do get put into clear loss games ESPECIALLY when you play tank and support.
Dps at least usually stick a game out (in my experience) so they don’t have to wait in queues again. However my fellow supports and tanks on console get almost instant requeues. There is almost no wait so the only thing keeping them in is having good in-game manners.
These matches aren’t every match but they are frequent enough (in my experience) to be an issue. I don’t want to get punished for leaving an already lost game but why should I have to waste time sticking out an enemy stomp when I could just leave and get insta-queued into a different match in less time than it takes to lose the previous match?
If the timeouts would actually work out you don’t have to be afraid for joining these stomp games or whatever. But anyway you basically want to put your problem aside to someone else. Because you want to only join winning games ? If you can’t take losing that it makes you leave then don’t play these type of games ? By the way i dont like losing either but i keep trying, i find it better then making my problem someone else their problem.
I had often times the team was whining and all seem lost but still somehow 1 good play from any of us and we won the game. If your mentality is that it seems to be lost therefor i don’t try and leave to just waste 5 people their time and the other fella who joins a game where the enemy team pushes even harder because for 10-15 seconds it was a 5-6 matchup.
We can’t win everything take your loss and try again.
That basically is the type of mentality with if it doesn’t go my way therefore i leave. A lot of us don’t have any issues with any maps broken or not.
When did I say I only wanted to join winning games? Joining a game that is already a clear win isn’t any fun either. I want to actually be able to play the game. I don’t care if I join a game a minute in and see the enemy is stomping. I’ll stay. But why stay when it’s hitting overtime?
Why stay when you don’t even get to be in the actual game for a full minute or even 30 seconds? That’s pointless. You can’t do anything to change the tides of that game as an individual.
There is a point in every game where it goes from still technically winnable to a loss. Man I even stay if they’ve lost first point. Win or lose doesn’t matter much to me sure losses are frustrating but I queued to play. I did not queue to barely get out of the character select screen before a game is done.
You can still be helpful enough to turn a first round stomp into a close call 2nd round. There’s nothing you can really do when the enemy team has +90% on 2nd point. Playing through those is not fun at all if you even get to point before the defeat screen.
Well like i said if it would stop making people to leave games this would not happen anyway. But still you are talking about a few games that maybe loses you 10-15 seconds of your time ? I rather take that then a 15 minute time out if someway they implanted this punishment.
The point of my suggestion is actually from stopping this from happening or atleast reduce it a lot that it happens you join these games.
This is an obvious troll post, after 5 years of this game why should anyone care about someone leaving a qp game? The only time you should actually care about a leaver is comp. Maybe you should be the one taking a break because you’re taking qp and arcade too seriously
No it aint a troll post and again this is the mentality what i mean that YOU and a few don’t care doesnt mean its ok. Stop making silly excuses of your selfish behavior, because a lot of us do care about QP, MH or whatever game mode.
Stop defending selfish behavior because you hide you don’t care, but still care for an time out system to be implanted. If an actually good penalty system would be implanted this could actually “control” the behavior of people leaving all the the time.
So what are you afraid of then ? that you can’t mass quit games because taking a loss hurts your ego or something ? If you don’t care for your team then why play a team based game ?
