Apex legends abandon penalty
Can yall please get rid of this stupid thing? It sucks when your team abandons you and I'm waiting for nothing.

@username_i_am You only have to wait until your respawn times out. And if you have a 44 minute suspension then I really doubt it's the first time you left early. Stop leaving early...
*** are you re-spawnable? yes.
*** if squad-mates don't pick up your banner till timer ends, then you can leave. You have to wait around 90 seconds.
you left immediately and you got penalty. Your squad-mates had no chance to re-spawn you and less chance to win game, because you are rage-quitter. Players like you deserve penalties.
Okay okay I see so many threads regarding leaving penalties with 2 conflicting things so I’m gonna ask:
Do you get panalties when you leave, even if your squad is alive, after you’ve waited those 90 seconds?
Cause I see claims from ppl who waited and that they got penalties and from ppl who say that you have to wait till you’re squad is wiped and they don’t want to wait for some scrub to camp for 15 mins...It would be stupid to punish for "early" leaving when player is dead and can't be revived/re-spawned.
I am positive that you can leave after 90 sec, if banner is not obtained.

Once you're unrevivable after your box times out, you can leave. However if your banner is recovered, you need to wait for the team wipe/ win. This can lead to a situation where a revive is unviable (the only beacons are too deep in the ring to safely use), but this generally would only be lategame. We've also seen some complaints of unpleasant types holding the banner to troll people, but I personally haven't encountered it.
