I use it on Arena players, though the report function for other PS4 players is broken and so i can't report them for abandoning games, so i can only report xbox players, for trios and duos unless they run off and die and then quit i tend to report, because they are just annoying, also use it in ranked, i have had some still quit as they don't care about the abandon penalty.
Exactly. People running off on their team, dying and leaving right afterwards is so getting out of hand.

Yupp it seems to be very pointless, just like many of the report options. How can they implement a safe automatic system that deals out punishment based on just reports from subjective "feelings". "I am feeling that his guy is sabotaging me! Reported for sabotage" etc. Even if they based it on percentage, like "you are banned if 80% of all randoms you play with reports you for sabotage", it would still be very unsafe since people would exploit this to get people banned. And also, they would ofc also clearly define what "sabotage" is. Is it sabotage to do 0 dmg to an enemy when a teammate is fighting him and then run straight to the loot box and take the purple armor instead of letting the teammate who now is low health have it? I think so. Should it be punishable? No way.
And even though early leaving could be measured since ether you do it or dont, I dont think the majority would want to play a casual game when you are forced to stay in the game. Imagine the animosity if you have to stay every time a solo Wraith runs away and let you die
I agree. My suggestion is to keep track of the times a player leaves early, as well as the reports received and put on a "leaver-score" for
a)everybody to see (not really neccessary, and some streamers wouldnt like that AT ALL *winkLulu)
b) making it more likely to get teamed with other frequent leavers - in the process teaming players who rarely leave with mates who also don't abandon
but as it is rn the reports system its just an illusion of control. I don't mind being tricked, but this is taking me (and others) for a foolNecro thread yes.
They could easily confirm if someone did in fact drop from a game before it ended or the whole team died, they have all of that data, they also could confirm if the person in fact went to the menu option and hit leave game as well and accepted it, all of that likely is tracked, they just choose to do nothing with it.
It is just ruining having a decent game, people to DC as soon as their body hits the floor, I can not count how many games me and the other player have lived to the end and done a top 3 or won it even and were able to get their banner.
If anything, force the person to stay connected until their banner times out, then they can leave.- EA_Mako3 years ago
