I get that it's an issue, but even with such a penalty put in place, players are not forced to stay in the match.
Of course players do get punished for leaving, but removing the penalty is simply not going to do anything good for mixtape.
It might be worth to test certain different ways of handing out penalties, like giving them a penalty after leaving a certain amount of games.
But if there isn't a penalty put in place, then a lot of these lobbies will just become empty.
It takes one leaver to cause a massive domino effect of the entire lobby leaving, which isn't very fun either.
Actually we need, also we need it for BR pubs. Leavers are cancer of the game. Systematic abandonment must be penalized even by mathematical means - it's hurting only 1 player experience, but leaver hurting his entire team's. If you're not grown up to respect teamplay and responsibillness - go play some CoD FFA.

In the current mixtape, no matter what you think, the withdrawal penalty should not be implemented.
In BR mode, where the loss of one player is a serious disadvantage to the team, a penalty for leaving is necessary, but in mixtape mode, where there are basically a certain number of players per team and there is currently no team balance at all, it is unnecessary by any means.
I'm referring to the current situation where the only matches that are offered are ones that are clearly not viable due to team balance and users violating the rules, but they impose a penalty that doesn't allow any withdrawal from the match. I am saying that it is fine to have a withdrawal penalty as long as the match is properly organized.
The only thing that is a "cancer" to the game is a system that offers only such unrealistic matches and a flat penalty for leaving the game in the middle of a match, when you can't play your favorite mode at anytime you want.
Can't you even understand the very simple fact that a match that is not played properly hurts both the player's experience and the team as a whole?
You haven't read the subject matter of the topic, etc., as written above, and yet you say things like, "If you haven't grown up to respect team play and responsibility, go play CoD FFA." If you are making fun of people by saying things like that, you should stop playing games and learn to read a sentence.
Do you realize that you are not qualified to say "if you are not mature enough to respect team play and responsibility, don't play apex" when you are making fun of people like that without respecting other people's opinions?
It is wrong to ask the players to be responsible and mature enough to respect team play when the game is not fulfilling its responsibility to mixtape mode in the first place, and the developers do not have those things in place, so the players are leaving the game in disgust.
