Abandonment penalty

I think the abandonment penalty is asinine. I experience games where my team will intentionally let me die so thy can take my body shield or equipment then revive me, so i get stuck with low tiier eq...

    @NimzowichYea idk that's odd, from what i understood if you saw that screen u can't leave but if your expired?? But I've read worse. Apparently players were experiencing a glitch so to speak, while dropping into map, where they couldn't see find or hit the ground. Falling through worlds edge, then king's canyon, then really glitchy idk. I love the game, just not the environment people create within the game sadly.

Exactly We the players are getting punished for leaving a game we don't want to play but people who troll don't get punished because there is no in game coding to tell if someone is trolling. Gaming is not going to be perfect I don't like when people leave my game  but that doesn't mean they should get punished for leaving even if I was going to revive them, it is their choice, tis some Slavic stuff right here forcing us to stay in the game, puts a whole new meaning to "ea sports it's in the game"

    @LevelMirror772 Right on, personally I think that's humorous. No 1 is forcing you to do anything, including playing the competitive game mode designed specifically for competitive players whom do respect the guidelines. Additionally you don't have to stay even, people freak out over having to wait or recieving a punitive penalty. REALLY???🤣😭🤣😭🤣😭 if it's that bad you can't wait the 60 seconds to give your teammates A CHANCE to do something about it, your prolly in the wrong game mode fella. I digress, point is ranked is supposed to be a competitive lobby designed for amateur players and semi-pro/pro players trying to reach pro status or semi-pro status. I don't get how it's illogical. By that logic if your on an athletic team idc, high school, college, pro, whatever, if you get suspended for two games what you're not gonna go to the games because you can't be productive?? I mean isn't a team supposed to be there for you? Idk to each their own I suppose, that's the beauty of 'MERICA 🤘💪🤘💪

    I had two ranked matches tonight where we ended up in a hot drop and won the fight.  BOTH times the ONE team mate that got knocked got mad and disconnected.  We revived them hoping that they would rejoin the match.  After a close 2v3, we were both downed.  The second time it happened, rather than wait the 3 minutes for a player who was no longer connected to the game to run halfway across the map to pick me up, I disconnected from the match and lost 48 RP and was blocked for 10 minutes. 

    That is asinine, and clearly not in the spirit of the abandonment penalty.

    Can we please change the penalty so it doesn't apply if the only remaining player on the team has disconnected from the match?
