Leaving matches early
Instead of having a punishment system like ranked. What about a timer of roughly 30sec before abandoning a pub match which you can cancel before it ends?

@apostolateofDOOM Look, there are jackasses who leave for no good reason the second they get downed even if they were easily respawnable and no amount of punishment would fix them, but there are also plenty of legitimate reasons to rage quit that range from irl stuff to people solo dropping away from you, being toxic, afking etc and forcing us to endure these situations for a further 30 seconds is not a healthy decision
Some players leave when they are downed because they do not want to get their KD Ratio to go down (probably). You see, when you leave early after getting knocked, it will not be counted as Death but your Kills or Stats in that match will be recorded.
- @hunterkillerjm5 Wait what? That can’t be right. I know this wasn’t the case in S1-3. If you got knocked and left it still counted as a death.
I usually leave when I see my teammates standing around doing nothing or if I see 1 downed and other one facing multiple teams.@Koochi-QNo, seriously. Kills get recorded, but leaves don't count as death. I've left games early a few times before because I play in an Internet Cafe (my gaming PC is not yet completed) after work. Before the computer timer runs out, I leave and logout everything. But I let my team know first before I do. You'll see on your stats page that your kills have increased but your death count did not (sometimes it does in some cases if you get killed while leaving). I check my stats first before every match, that's why I know.
- @hunterkillerjm5 Wow... I don’t really care about K/D as long as it stays above the 2... but didn’t know this.
Well stats ppl, you now know what to do... :P
If I knew this I’d’ve did so alot more often in S3... I had a K/D of 3.something with over 200 kills ☹️ now it’s at 2.8something ☹️ I died many times in a row couple days ago XD
