I am personally deeply tired of people leaving the game because they die quickly or otherwise and it destroys our opportunities in the game, so either have to have done so it is not possible to live until everyone is dead otherwise people should have 24 hours of ban, show They leave before everyone on one's team has died too many times in a day
And I'm tired of awful teammates that don't ping anything, steal absolutely all the loot and leave you with nothing but a p2020 with no ammo, and most importantly don't make any attempts to revive you or recover your banner-especially when you've died as a result of any of the above or because your jump master decides to go to a terrible area.
Granted, it is really annoying when people leave instantly when none of this is the case and you are clearly making every attempt to recover them, or because you picked 'their' legend, but how do you find such a balance when trying to implement a penalty like this?
Should I be punished with a ban of any time because I didn't want to sit and watch my team run around aimlessly after ditching me and my banner?
Also big point here; I made a separate topic complaining about bugs, one of which is the fact that I am completely unable to do hotdrops such as skull town and market as my game bugs out and causes horrendous audio glitches and frame losses and lag which render the game almost unplayable until a large number of the teams have been killed (but I mostly just die instantly in these situations due to the game literally not working). - Most people want to do these drops, and I physically can't until the bugs are fixed, so I would be forced to tag along and die then watch my team do whatever or get a time penalty? Seems unfair to me.
I am a team player and do my best to help evryone and communicate properly, and am even against a solo mode due to the fact that the game works well as a team-oriented fps, but sometimes people just don't want to play along properly My point being that I really think it's too difficult to say whose at fault and implement penalties or bans of any kind.
Be happy that at least a good point is apex has a fast lobby system etc so you can quite easily and quickly join a new game yourself if your team dc's an ruins it for you, plus with the ability to now invite previous players you can now find a decent team and then stick with them.
TL;DR: too many variables to dictate who's at fault for leaving, atleast matchmaking is fast and we can invite a good team once we've found one. Bans and penalties will only kill a large percentage of the playerbase.

Keep an eye out for coming updates for more information about this.

They haven’t formally announced anything. Some code was accidentally activated in the game - but was since removed.
Yes, they more than likely will implement this - but nothing is certain, especially the “very soon” part.
Those that pick up Items and just keep that stuff for no good reason how do they get to LVL 40 and not realise that carrying shotgun ammo with a SMG and a PISTOL is not a thing.
Punish everyone give everyone a 12 hour ban except for the cheaters of course they didn nothing wrong it's a cultral thing.

This mindset is exactly what's the reason for the quitter problem and the resulting need to handle it.
Honestly quitting is not a problem, i have over 500 hours played and being 1 or 2 people down is an issue maybe 2% of the time... however not finding a gun while running through multiple buildings or running out of ammo after killing 2 people early in the match happens over 80% of the time ..sorry for my bad mindset but soft banning people wont solve the problem, your just going to end up with people making multiple garbage accounts to keep playing remember the game is "free"
maybe fix the problem why they are leaving and give people more health so they stay alive more than 3 seconds

It won’t stop them, but it will deterr most people.
it takes longer than 5 minutes to set up another account.
Very soon is not soon enough! WE need it now!
i still don't think this is an issue that should be solved until other underlying problems have been addressed..
i agree a ban 100% needs to be added if their beacon times out then allow them to quit as they are not resable too many games people leave at the moment either in the lobby because they want to be carried by a higher rank or in game when they are downed due to poor positioning or lack of skill against the opponent and refuse to wait for a res, also could think of adding solos and duos as then you wont have to worry about carrying them in the firt place like ALL other BR games apart from this one lol kinda behind just having squads ......
