Quitting mid fight

The threshold for quitting is now at an all time low. Players quit mid fight so much. Boxes pop like popcorn. 2 min in and what do you know, 8 squads left. So boring.

20 bomb badges dont mean anything anymore, and pred lobbies are filled with hackers. This game is so bland and forgettable now.

  • I second this, to many are quitting mid fight because there are no consequences to leaving and rejoining another game, there should be a cool down of 5 minutes if you leave mid fight..

  • @IngeniekeyThe reason I personally tend to leave early is because I just want to get back into the action, I think I’m going to be enjoying the new control mode because its finally a mode with unlimited respawns that I have been asking for so there won’t be a reason to hotdrop and rage quit in BR assuming the control mode is fun but for now its only an LTM so I don’t think there will be any stat trackers for it but personally I think they are treating it like a beta to get feedback on wether we like it or not and what balance changes or bugs might need to be made/fixed before it becomes permanent like Arenas and BR

    @MichelPostma It has indeed turned into a gambling game. To me, it feels like texas holdem. If I get crappy cards to start with, I fold and wait until the next round. With my experience degrading over time, now I leave more games before they begin than actually staying until the dropship. In the past, I would've been ashamed of this behaviour, but now it's the only way to actually keep a shred of sanity.
  • It's their matchmaking catching up to Day 1 solo queue players, and it's having a negative effect due to the long term frustrations, which is boiling over to the new players now since they see so many people doing it. 

    Most of us that solely solo queue and are remotely halfway competent, can easily see how a game is going to play out from the first minute of play or so. Very rarely have I gone into a game thinking "well this will be quick", only to walk away saying "those guys were cracked!"...Very! Very rarely has that happened.

    I used to stay in games all the time in the beginning seasons, but after 20K games and over 2 years of playing this game, watching streamers, and content creators, I just know my odds lol 

    I know that sound selfish, but it's my time and I come to video games for entertainment and to get away from the daily stresses, yet now struggle with the stresses of this games matchmaking. 

    Bottom line is, if they don't fix their matchmaking it will only get worse. A leaver penalty in Pubs is not the answer IMO especially when code-shoe is so rampant for many players. Hell that's half of the reason I never touch Arenas Modes lol I only have a certain amount of time to play and got so many leaver penalties in Arenas when they rolled the penalty out due to being code-shoe booted.
