I soloq and I’ve noticed an increase in teammates quitting early even tho I’m mirage and can craft your banner. I almost always get the respawn unless it’s late game. Why are you playing ranked if you can’t wait to be respawned? These are Diamond lobbies I’m talking about too so buy in is 100 LP Is anyone else experiencing this? Do I smell bad? Am I * at the game? Why quit in ranked https://100001.onl/ https://1921681254.mx/ ?
No one care anymore about ranked/pubs anymore , mmr ruined the whole game and the reward are worthless.
There's like 2 lobby in high elo in EUW lmao.
"No one care anymore about ranked/pubs anymore" At least 3.2 mil players would beg to differ that are actively playing ranked.
I do not know why people do not wait to be respawned or for that matter revived in ranked. I can only guess that they are 1. trying to preserve their precious K/DR or 2. just have no patience.
Wow this guy truly idolize EA like a God. Good job, Respawn. You score yourself a superfan.
Btw, when will you be releasing a hot fix for SBMM? Yours truly, paid customer.
People just dont take this game very seriously from a competitive stand point. Many premade duos primary motivation to play the game is to play together, frag and have fun, not maximize the RP gains at all costs.
I cant blame them because I am the same. If will ofc not quit if we are all fighting valiantly together and I happen to die and my random teammate manage to make a miraculous escape and heads for safe place to craft banners and respawn. I will not quit if I die by my own recklessness like running ahead alone into a full enemy team. If my random turn tail (which they should because its a 2v3 situation because of me) and tries to craft and respawn, then I am just greatful. BUT... if we get into a fair fight, perhaps even started by the random, I fight and do a lot of good things in that fight like knocking two enemies alone and getting knocked and killed by the third, and I then see that my random teammate literally just sat behind cover the entire fight with 10 dmg dealt, then I will quit as soon as I can. The incentives to get into a new game > the incentives to maybe get my banners crafted and maybe get respawed, 10 minutes later...Its as simple as that.
In my experience, random teammate, both solos and premade duos, seem to follow this logic as well. That means that if you are a good teammate who really do your part in a fight before they get killed, they will most likely also stay to get respawned because you have proved to be worthy of their time. But if you are some Crypto player who runs behind a rock and start flying around with your drone the entire fight and then says "dOnT woRRy, i GeT yOuR BannERS!" with 0 dmg dealt, then most people will hate you and dont wanna play with you,.
I do not Idolize EA.
I am a fan of Apex however, because it is one of if not the best BR game out right now.
Yes it has some problems here and there and yes I will criticize that and provide honest feedback and suggestions on how to fix.
@espadakillar69yeah quite sad we can't block users , just ignore them.
"yeah quite sad we can't block users , just ignore them."
What is that supposed to mean?
In pubs, players learn the ancient art of disconnecting when downed since they realized they can get back into the action sooner instead of screaming, "LiFeLiNe ReZ mE!!"
Then in ranked, a lot of players are still in that pubs mindset, so they would often leave too. However, a lot would wait to time out before they leave. These players either don't care, or don't know banner crafting is a thing, (which if its the ladder, it means that they do not care to learn how the game is played or about its changes, so they're better off not being on the team anyways).
Other reasons why they'll leave in ranked is that the "hidden MMR" is awful. You get put against players way above your skill, and your teammates are almost always way below your skill, and you're expected to just clutch as a solo. Players who leave in these instances are used to useless teammates and rather take a loss instead of spectating the "noob" or "bot" teammate running around aimlessly.
TLDR;
Pubs
- Disconnecting gets them into the next game sooner
Ranked:
- Pubs disconnecting mentality
- Matchmaking is broken, (going against players who are higher skilled in unfair matches with lower skilled teammates)
- Teammates are a joke, (noobs or bots)
Oh, and lets not forget that if the server crashes, gets DDOS'ed, or otherwise stops the match, you'll get a penalty for "abandonment", when it wasn't even your fault in any shape way or form, and EA/Respawn hasn't done anything about that kind of loss, so its clear that if you lose points due to the game or server's own errors, too bad.
Also don't bother to play with friends. I've already tried a duo and trio party, and all that does is made us go against the top preds and all the cheaters playing. The more you pre-stack, the more the game thinks you can 1v3 the top players and cheaters. This is especially when both teammates are new to the game or don't no-life it as much as you do, (yup, it doesn't care about their skills, if you're in their party. They'll get sentenced to your level of matchmaking flaming inferno, and the heat is cranked up to the max since your there).
I'm at the point where all the friends I enjoyed playing Apex with had stopped playing and went on to The Finals, Fortnite, etc. and every match, no matter the mode, my teammates are usually unable to hit things, and pretty much all the enemy players are diamonds and up (25%), smurfs (5%), or cheaters (70%).
