Re: Why would you make it so you can't leave a ranked match while in the dropship???

@MoNosDirtyGaming BECAUSE YOU ARE SCREWING YOUR RANDOM TEAMATES OUT OF A 3RD PLAYER! Baffles me that you think it’s cool to leave your ranked teamates to 2v3 the whole game right from the start... Regardless of the reason you qued in ranked with randoms, it’s wrong to screw them out of RP just because you want to immediately leave and play with your friends. Imagine going solo into ranked and then only having one teammate...

  • @TCG_Maximus If matchmaking worked as intended I wouldn't have to leave to REJOIN my FRIENDS. Common sense.

    You think having 1 teammate in ranked is bad? lmao, i've played ranked solo and still won. If you need teammates to win then you aren't as good as you think you are.

    Well I can tell you’ve probably never made it past plat 4 if you think you can easily solo all the way up the ranks. Hit diamond and then tell me solo que is easy. Unless you a top 1% player, your going to get dumped on by sweaty 3 stacks every game. Besides even if you can solo in bronze through gold or even platinum, the randoms probably aren’t that good and like I said, you end up hurting their game.

    Your issue shouldn’t be with not being able to leave ranked matches since it has consequences to your teamates and that’s a valid reason to have penalties. It should be connection/servers/matchmaking, since that’s what’s causing you to play with randos in the first place.

  • @TCG_Maximusmfao, sort your damn head out dude. Last split I made master. I know apex is doable as a solo, in SEASON 1 I went from bronze 4 - diamond 1 in the last 7 days, AS A SOLO. Last season I went from diamond 4 to master in less than 48 hours AS A SOLO. I ain't the person for you to be talking to about "ranked" games lmao.

    In ranked if a player is unable to proceed up the ranks without relying on teammates; here's a reality check, they are in their intended ranked tier and still won't be able to progress unless they get carried heavily; this is another reason why you are paired up with players from previous tiers.

    My issue was posted correctly, this feature was added and nothing was put in place of it. Show me your stats? I'm pretty sure he we could happily discuss what an actual player who can solo games looks like.

    EDIT: FYI THIS FEATURE WAS PUT INTO PLACE AND HAS BEEN STEALTH PATCHED. Maybe once you get out of plat by getting carried by your teammates you'll finally understand the logic behind my post.

    @MoNosDirtyGaming You clearly have something wrong, your saying you are in diamond but you never have a team? I find it hard to beleive that you are the best player alive. Apex legends is a team game if you leave games before you are dead and have no chance of being respawned then you are ruining it for your teammates. If a ranked player is unable to win without any team, not even randoms then that does not mean they are bad.
  • @Westhebird lmao who said I never have a team? and I never said "I am the best player alive". I explicitly explained I solo'd on my way up. You insinuated, just like the other dude. Apex legends was originally planned as a team game yes, but it is still very doable as a solo. Remember the gold shield being able to heal you fast? That got taken out because it was for solo play, and allowed you to 3v1 and noobs couldn't keep up, so ofc they removed it.

    Again leaving in the ship was already a feature in ranked and was added a few seasons back, this also means that once you are a player down other players are free to leave as they wish without incurring a loss of points. (Can't believe I even had to explain that.....)

    "If a ranked player is unable to win without any team, not even random's then that does not mean they are bad." - Wrong, If a player relies on their teammates then this just shows that they are indeed bad at the game, why? Because they can't hold their own. This means soon as a player is out, they instantly lose because the player who left didn't carry them, again proving my point that they are indeed bad and need carrying and they are in the tier they were supposed to be in. This is why people do not like players who camp making it to diamond, because it took no skill.

    Respawn stating "apex legends is a team game" is just another sorry excuse to dumb down the original context of what this game really was; making it very noob friendly so players who couldn't get a kill finally do.

    To conclude, again this feature was already in the game; so there is literally nothing you can say in regards to it. If you need carrying every game, you are bad at the game. Simple.

    @MoNosDirtyGaming you are a special kind of person. Screw the RP, what do you think it does for the experience? You should NEVER be able to leave a ranked match intentionally without suffering a penalty. People don't join matches to play 2 v lobby. The fact you think it is okay at all is a puzzle to me.

    Dude I call 110% BS on you “masters” rank lol. Everyone always acts like an amazing player when they are called out. Why don’t you show me your stats?? I’ve made it to high diamond and could have gone farther if I didn’t spend 90% of every split in pubs but the fact that your bringing in skill to a subject about leaving teamate shows that your either arrogant or, like someone who hasn’t made it in high ranks, don’t understand that this is a TEAM based game and unless your fighting bots all game, your not going to perform nearly as well in ranked as you would with a team. I.e.- You leave your teamates, they have a harder time. THATS COMMOM SENSE

    Even Shroud made the statement that when facing really good players, the only way you win a 1v3 is because they made a mistake.


    So please, stop being the typical internet pro gamer and acting like “I just don’t understand why I can’t leave my teammates at the beginning of a game because I’m so good that it doesn’t affect me when people do it to me”. Ridiculous... Think about the rest of the game population, especially the average player who is the majority and does not share that opinion on teammates leaving early forcing them to have a rough game most of the time.

    And no, it’s not “doable to solo your way up”, unless your a sub 1% player but that doesn’t speak for everyone in the game. Everyone has their skill limit and eventually, you will need good teammates to get any higher. A player with a 1kd and less than 10% wr is not going to make it very far without good teamates and especially if he’s only in a 2 man team.

  • @TCG_MaximusLMAO, ALL THIS DAMN TALK. I AM in masters, be jealous, you need to spend 90% of your time in ranked just to get masters LOL, TOOK ME 48H last season. Must hurt for you bro. Diamond LOL. Sureeeee my dude, prove it. Show me your stats while you're at it; I bet it's diamond 3 you're stuck at.

    No ones acting like anything, I said the feature where you were able to leave the game because the DEVELOPERS ADDED IT 2 SEASONS AGO IS NOT WORKING AS INTENDED. (THIS WAS THE WORKAROUND FOR THEIR AWFUL MATCHMAKING) Understand? Or do I need to write the same sentence 10 different times for you to UNDERSTAND?????

    A player with a 1kd is going to either get knocked or downed in every fight because he can only kill 1 person per death. Again, if he is stuck in ranked then he is in his INTENDED TIER. Do you understand how ranked works??? Cause judging by your statement you clearly don't. FYI A player with a 1kd most likely has a 0-5% win ratio depending on how long they've played. Yes you said less than 10% but let's be accurate here.

  • @Ki1lobyte Again, as i've repeated multiple times in this thread. You were able to leave ranked in the dropship starting 2 seasons ago due to matchmaking kicking you out of parties.. It kicked in loss forgiveness. This meant that both teammates who were now without a third person were able to also leave without loss forgiveness, it also meant that if they died and incurred negative RP; loss forgiveness would still kick in. Meaning all 3 teammates do not lose RP. WHICH ALSO MEANT that they could play a very aggressive playstyle with no punishments. It was a win for everyone.

    @MoNosDirtyGaming Sorry, but I am still not sure what do you mean about kicking friends out of the matchmaking, I thought you were talking about bad randoms. Can you write this simply point by point i.e. what do you do and what happens next?

    The way I'm seeing MoNo's point is

    *Ques ranked with friends*

    *Game starts but one friend is replaced with random party member because EA glitch)

    *Leave game* (Respawn made it so if you Que'd this way and it glitches out, you and your teammates, even the rando, wont suffer RP loss)

    *Still suffers Time Penalty / RP Loss*

    @MoNosDirtyGaming Well then, yes, there should be protection for premade squads to be premade. But then again - it's a glitch or a feature? Never happened to me in premade squad. Maybe it's something with consoles, hmm or server is mixing players for some reason.
  • @TCG_Maximus All that trash talk from you my dude, where them stats of yours at?????? Missing for 2 days? Lmao bruh.
