Re: Ever wonder why this game feels so exhausting to play?

Apparently EA considers leaving the game early to be part of the game.

So now, I play it that way.

If a team is annoying you, leave it.  There is no penalty that matters, nor will there ever be one.  The game was designed for a pre-made team of 3 you can tell from the rewards, so they wanted you to know the people you play with.  Of course, they can't sell a game like that, nor make any kind of money with that rule, so there is public play.  And....they also won't penalize people because of the same reason....they want to make money and penalizing leavers is bad for business. 

Ranked is slightly better but not by much.

So yes, you should stick around in a game until completion.  But Respawn itself won't enforce any kind of rules so at this point, just ditch, it's not a problem.  Not according to EA, or Respawn, or anyone.  You're hamstringing yourself if you don't, in fact, at least leave some games, because you are ruining your fun waiting for things that may never happen.  Only stay in a game if you want.

    The whole issue that comes with playing with randoms is that your fun and enjoyment depends on your team, on completely unknown people. I had my days where I enjoyed Apex Legends a ton, but I also had my days where I was just frustrated to no end. In the end, my performance only ensures 33% of my own input being actually valuable to the whole team. And if my team slacks behind, so do I. I had my matches where I spawned in completely alone. Those matches were amazing because I actually scored some kills while also ensuring that my performance was mine alone. I still have yet to win a match completely alone, so far I was only close to it... But you get the point.

    Solo mode would surely be fun to many people, really.
