Can apex legends do something about players disconnecting in rank? They are not getting punished enough while us players who want to rank up end up losing rp?? How is this fair?

@Xnder_DN People who disconnect get a 10 minute penalty on playing ranked and they lose their RP. If the situation is urgent, I can understand why someone would leave, but due to the state the servers are in, people can simply lose connection, meaning it's not their fault.

@Xnder_DN Currently most people are crashing. I’ve had it many times and had randoms who also crash. Almost every match someone crashes it seems.

@Tuesday_713Nah some these fools actually just unplug their net so the game registers they lost internet connection and once they know the legend has been removed completely this allows them to bypass penalty. I never have reported this simply because well 2 outcomes i see. 1 they have nothing to detect a internet connection loss. 2 they did not think about this exploit ahead time and i dont get paid nor get to help to care enough. Until they keep users who disconnected via internet loss in the game till its ended completely then the exploit will keep happening.

@Tuesday_713 Mostly the goddamn game just crashes, because EA staff are high on whatever instance they choose when coding and/or testing, and they can't fix their game... Just stuff in more buggy sh.t every patch

@HansBurgers Yep 2 times since new patch i got error, and when i restart the game it didn't reconnect to the game but i got a timepenalty. And the game was still going on because my friend was in it, and he said the 3th guy also dropped out with me. Great patch again...

@Tuesday_713 Is it 10 minutes max now? I remember people complaining that they couldn’t play for days because of a penalty

@FaIIenAngeI777 Yeah, I've seen those complaints as well. It could be that it stacks, I sure hope it does. But the penalty is given only if the person leaves manually, not by crashing.

@Xnder_DN How are you losing RP? As soon as they leave you should get loss forgiveness.

@Xnder_DN I don't have the fix for the your situation but I do know that the new update has my game freezing. I played a few ranked games and had it crash 3 times since I downloaded the update a few hours ago. Even had 2 randoms suddenly stop moving and disconnecting. I have to forcefully close the game since it stops responding.

@Sonairezeb You shouldn't be losing rp unless you leave yourself. If you play and die, you get loss forgiveness and don't lose the entry fee rp for your rank.
