Leaving in pubs is worse than ever
Seriously, I played about 10 matches last night and at least 1 person left in every single one. As soon as they were downed as well. Unbelievable how bad it has become.

@Vdstrk My understanding is that there is a behind the scenes leaver penalty in pubs. So it is like a downward cycle if you leave you will just get put on worse teams. I'm not sure what the answer is. It used to not be an issue because 9/10 teams were good. Now it is like 6/10. Since I never leave because of this, I have done stuff like jump off the map then had my sqd just carry my banner for 10 minutes. After I tell them to not pick up my banner and to not rez me. Then they of course die to the first team they encounter.

LOL
It is entirely possible tha they have a "shadow" penalty. I do not leave as much anymore. It is what it is. I hate dropping with 5 other teams, and be without guns.... but the chances are that the match will be very short anyways. I used to insta-quit the second they were headed to, say, estates along 10 other teams.... Everything else was ok.... drop in the middle of nowhere, it is fine... just not more than 2 other teams please.
Then again... who does drop along with many other teams? the level 10 who gets some bad advice on the internet... and who will probably get toasted so many times that will leave the game because, "oh apex just s@#$s.."
Or the apex pred who cannot care less one way or the other because it is just warm up.

@Vdstrk Flashback to last night playing with my friend and his friend who wanted to only jump fragment in ranked. So basically I was getting 1 kill and we were eliminated within 3 minutes for about 10 matches. It was still better than playing with randoms.
