REMOVE ABANDON PENALTY FROM NON-RANKED GAMES

I was just penalized 10 minutes for the first time ever.

I was in arenas with a full squad. Match 1, all 3 of us played and we lost. Match 2, we lost and one of us hadn't moved from the original spawning point but wasn't showing as disconnected. Match 3, the same player did not move at all. The 2 of us playing/moving/fighting were down and all we could do was spectate from the AFK players POV while they hunted him down. Why wouldn't I leave the match?! Absolutely fuming about this.

I often have negative feelings about teammates leaving games in certain situations, but that comes from only my perspective, not theirs. In battle royale, where you can be recovered and respawned after being eliminated, I wonder why players bail before their teammates can bring them back. Even in situations where a matter of one minute can inform you whether it's likely or not you'll be brought back, people bail. I have grabbed banners and sprinted to the beacon, or used Crypto to grab and respawn, just to have the player quit a moment too soon. This bothers me, but, I have children who play with a set time limit. They have told me that their calculation is that bailing guarantees them more play time and waiting is not playing. If I have a controller in my hand I SHOULD BE PLAYING!
