Implement punishment for leavers.

A lockout time where you can’t que for match after leaving for 10 min. (players can maybe be granted 1 per day for those who have real legitimate reasons)

and a system where leavers/bad sports are only matched with other leavers/bad sports and are informed they are banished to bad sport ques for certain period of time.

Lock the FT queue for Predator queue became 40-90+ mins average then. Another great idea from Predator main.

ps. Im noticed only predators leave after get downed (lvl 100).

By doing that, you are quite literally just increasing your own queue time. Which play style do you use as pred? maybe they see zerker and just quit. That seems to be the new craze as of late

I personally don’t use zerker but at some point leavers need to be discouraged in order to cultivate a better play experience for everyone… When its people who leave before their team can call reinforcements that is an issue too.
This leads to lower quality games and a multiplayer games experience is completely dictated by the actions of the people you play the game with.

No.

leavers need to be punished that’s unacceptable game play. Anyone who disagrees I would love to hear why they think this shouldn’t be implemented.

5 min lock and 2k XP loss everytime someone quits early - maybe give 1 x disconnect forgiveness in a 24h period; as gpu hangs / crashes / mothers coming in and turning shit off (for you younger ones) happens.

I don’t quit many matches but honestly, I’m starting to quit them now when i end up with a bunch of mic-less racing Rambos. If they aren’t gonna have any kind of teamwork on top of not even bringing a mic to a team game… Fuck em. I don’t want to waste my time.

I personally think people should be allowed to leave without penalty after they’ve been taken out, reinforcements available or not. They be dead.
Further, you should be able to queue for the next match while spectating the end of this one. This would greatly speed up queue times, minimise loading and improve UX.

Random idea, repeatedly leaving a match during the first couple of minutes should perhaps come with an XP/V debuff (with warning), costing you 50% of the next matches for some time. Eh?

Locking people out would only cause queue issues again.

I disagree because that means lower quality games.
I just had a game where the whole team was reinforced by 1 player but in your scenario everyone would have been gone and the game would have been over.
Leavers break the intended design and mechanic of the game.
Also players who leave right before a game starts actually increase the real que time.

Are they not already being penalized and receiving no rewards for the current match? That is what I am reading when I quit my own private match.

“You will not receive any match rewards or experience and will be returned to the main menu.” Accept / Cancel.

It would not seem that XP/V loss is not enough to de-incentivize this practice for many. Or perhaps the potential to penalize the Predator player’s rewards is too much of an incentive to keep them from leaving the game?

they can start by removing leave game

once you are at level cap it doesnt matter and FT will find a new match in seconds if they are first to die

Quz sometimes you will get a power cut or game decides to kick you, disconnects you or sing you off with no reason. Why should you be punished for that? Better idea is to give xp points like for a long claim to pred for any FT that leavs. Also, FT should get a body secured ending if pred leavs

Hell no the randoms on this game are the worse ive seen
Its worse than 2k and call of duty
Within the 1st minute and a half im either staying or quitting because im not finna finish a match i know is impossible because im the only one stopping the camp alarms while doing the objective while they have 0 damage to the predator and i have 200

And since the match is destined to be a low Veritanium payout anyways, best to leave. I get it, makes sense. TY!

The game booting you no, a player should not be punished for that. But I think in reality the other types of d/c (should) happen very infrequently (power outage, ISP issue. etc.).

No, I leave matches often as FT. The reason is because sometimes I know my teammates won’t put out. I have literally seen a teammate just stand in a corner and watch the predator melee me and then claim me without firing his weapon. Some people deserve to be left behind.

I had two unless FT members twice within 5 matches. First two walk out of bounds and kill themselves, and the next two decide to hide and do nothing after I reinforced them

because this game is alpha pahse…
1.Its not a ranked or competitive game… get good doesn’t fly on this game
2.Why should a FT member wait around for some asshat that can’t even shoot ground
3.Bugs on top of bugs plague the fun experience.
4.Hackers
5.Ping issues from some host in middle east
6. Game is not anywhere on the esports list
7. If 4 are downed why wait?
8. You might be on a power trip in your moms basement and suck at life and all you do to show for anything is your good at video games.
9. If your a streamer like bloodthirsty lord and quit mid match like he did to my boyz…
