@Midnight9746Thats basically why I gave up on Arenas, at first I was loving Arenas and it was the only game mode I was playing but after they introduced the penalties I haven’t touched Arenas at all except for Arena Event Challenges, I thought it would of gotten better because teammates wouldn’t be instantly leaving but penalties actually made the game mode a nightmare...
I seem to constantly get either AFK Teammates, 1-2 Teammates that are missing, or be put against a team of smurf/aimbotters hitting nothing but headshots in literally every single game and only 1 out of 6-10 games might actually be playable... the matchmaking is also a joke because I can have 2 newer players and the enemy team will be a 3 stack clan with thousands of kills and hundreds of wins each...
I think Arena Penalties should be removed except for Ranked Arenas, I also think they should try out your suggestion to ‘’fill in’’ for the missing teammate(s), the players who leave the game early will forfeit their win streak and any kills, damage, challenge progress, etc earned during the match and only if they consecutively leave arena games (2-3 in a row) will they be penalized
my problem with the current system is that a teammate can be afk, but you are not allowed to leave or YOU will be penalized when the afk teammate is the one who deserves to be penalized... I had a game as Rampart where a teammate kept instantly destroying my shields and sabotaging the game and once again I would be the one penalized when he is the one who should be penalized... basically Penalties punish everyone except the people who actually deserve the penalty
@TheApexLegendNubActual facts
Besides, the penalty doesn't stop people from leaving - I'm constantly seeing players dashboarding or Alt+F4'ing out of matches, and they put their team at a huge disadvantage. Honestly at this point, might as well ban players from the mode for extended periods of time. Because clearly a 10 minute slap on the rist isn't stopping them.
