[IMPORTANT] Respawn developers, PLEASE watch this, regarding TDM

Anyone at Respawn, I know you're currently under heavy pressure, but you need to watch this!

TDM can lead to game stalling, keeping servers up for no reason, this can lead to exponential saturation if used.

The game allows people to leave, it's litterally impossible (for a good reason) to join non-new games of TDM (especially losing ones!), hence games can end up being empty, with only 6 to 1 players only on one team, until the game stops.

You NEED to add a game state check that says a team won if a server has no one on a team for [30?] seconds, or something similar.


This could lead to all servers being slowly reserved and a HUGE load increase.

Good luck and keep up the good work!

    Also, another scenario today:

    - 6vs6

    - One team leads

    - Other teams goes down to one playing + one AFK

    - AFK one is not kicked and finally leaves

    - Last one fights alone

    - Most skilled people on winning team leave, weaker ones remain

    - They start losing all duels against the last one standing

    - They eventually leave

    - Game ends up with 0 vs 1, fully stalled, no loser, no winner.

    Update: forgot to mention the time limit of 30 minutes doesn't apply.
