A total waste apart from the 10 minutes of survival XP I’ve helped them earn you mean?
ok mate... ok...
and yeah the game occasionally misqueues but the fact that you don’t see that players like you make that frustration exponetionally worse is rather telling.
Oh well, i guess we’ll both be enjoying our respective naughty step time before too much longer no matter how we try and justify our actions. *shrugs*
Agreed.
But until Respawn actually has a stance on any of this no one is in any position for action against them for leavin.
It is currently allowed until i see an official response saying otherwise.
Even try to just get a mod to say leavin predrop due to char selection is frowned upon, not that they have a say in the game at all but I doubt they would even agree with u.
People want to play a char, nothing wrong there besides the game still missing the feature officially, but im sure its comin thrn we will see wats actuslly intended, lol.
- EA_Blueberry7 years agoCommunity Admin We appreciate all the feedback everyone is providing here and we would like it to stay on topic as much as possible. 
 Obviously, going into a game with 2 in your squad (or solo) puts you at a disadvantage. We hope players don't develop a habit of leaving because their favorite Legend was taken. This reduces the amount of overall squads in the match and forces players to restart the loading process again. It's a great opportunity to practice with another Legend you're not so familiar with or use your second favorite. I've won some games with only two players from the get-go and those wins can be even more gratifying at the end.The penalty system was added in by mistake, but we have been forwarding feedback from the forums about players leaving and how to find a positive solution around it. There is one popular discussion here on it. We never want to make players feel like they're being "punished" for playing Apex Legends. 
 We should also be mindful of other opinions and avoid attacking each other because that is just not nice or helpful at all. It's also against our AHQ Posting Rules & Guidelines.Like @warslag mentioned you should really try to take advantage of the Find a Squad boards and friend up with as many players as you can so you develop a good roster of people you can consistently play with at all times of the day. It will naturally help minimize the amount of times you come across this. 
 I was personally taught to never give up. Whether I'm in a game by myself, with another player or three, I'm taking down as many Legends as I can before the ring consumes me.
