Been trying to get back into the game for the past couple of weeks and no-joke about 1/3 of all games are decided by a player tilting and deciding to stop playing. Its probably higher because its obviously happeing on the other side as well which I dont neccesarily notice every time.
Its always the same storu - sometimes players tilt at the start because they dont like a meta pick or they tilt as soon as they die or whenever someone makes a misplay - real or percieved etc. etc. you knopw the drill.
Now you can bounce back from a bad play, team wipe etc. thats lhow the game is designed but as soon as I see: “gg”, “i´m afk” etc I know the game is over. And since the only enforcement that works in this game is the AFK bans these pleyers dont even disconnect - they sit around and troll the game making it unwinnable while maximizing frustration and time wasted.
I understand that the game isnt in active development anymore but this should be so easy to fix since tilting always leaves literal written evidence behind 99% of the time - part of the tilt is telling othjer that you intend to sabotage. Just implement some alorithm that can correlate keywords in chat with a decreased in-game metrics over say-the next couple of minutes - and then immediately eject the player from the game and give them a ban - after say 3 such bans within a specific time frame just permaban their accounts.
Like it is now the game is in an unplayable state - and since the game is getting patches and at least some nascent developer attention it should be possible to do something about this - as it is players that actually want to play are slowly churning from the game, I know I´m done for now.
