It’s not dying but it’s a throw away game. Until it’s worth playing most games rather than quitting them, it will always be that way.
@KelRiever I always wondered if adding some sort of functionality other than spectating when death boxed would help prevent quitting.
Let's just look at hyperscape for a second, even when you're killed you can still physically move around the map, allowing you to scout for your team and relay info back, when done properly that info becomes a really powerful tool.
I'm not saying respawn should copy this idea but giving players the option to do something other than spectate might reduce the amount of quitting.
@MandatoryIDtag They could, but Apex really needs to stop giving out rewards for a game until you at least 'gray out' and can't respawn. And for all those worried about getting their beacon picked up and then carried around forever without being respawned...first of all that still hurts the player doing it because they don't have a team mate. And second, you should know what you signed on for when you did a game.
I'm not saying don't let players quit. But still giving them rewards for things like games completed if they just hit the dropship screen has to end for people to start feeling things about sticking around.- @MandatoryIDtag I remember proposing something of the sorts a while ago, like wondering in the void, fighting your way back , something a little similar to the Gulag in Warzone, but inspired by the throne worlds from Destiny.
The problem,though, is that extra activities can add load to the servers (extra data to process and track) and the result could mean more net related problems. Also, not convinced it would reduce the number of leavers effectively enough to be worth the trouble.@DoYaSeeMe Yeah I suppose. It feels like apex is tearing at the seams lately, I guess adding any bulky content like that would probably be more harmful in the long run.
I like the game, I’m going to play it either way. But how you play it right now is you dump early on 3-4 out of every 5 games if you want to enjoy Apex. Worse, min 2 out of that 3-4 is leave within 1 min of landing.
I did not design this game, I am playing it the way it was designed. If Respawn wants something different like for me to finish most of my games then they should fix their game. Otherwise I have to assume this is how they intended it to be,
I hope so.
