You allow players to rejoin if they disconnect, if thier pc/network crashes or whatever. Why not players that have to go AFK for unseen circumstances, is it not better to let them re-join so they can atleast try and win. It sucks for them, not to mention everyone else’s game on the team is ruined.
What if im playing and the doorbell rings?, i get 1 whole minute before i get a permeant loss, i cant just rejoin and play??
Keep the current afk mechanic, where if a player leaves it gives a countdown and others can leave sure, but atleast let the player that left have the option to rejoin, what is the harm in giving the player that option?
Its a poorly designed unfair mechanic that is easily adjustable, that if your analysts give you a figure, probably accounts for a sizeable proportion of lost but potentially not SR.
Or… Don’t go afk.
Don’t commit the “crime” if you can’t do the time, or something.
If your something crashes… you still ruined the game for others and should lose SR.
Suck it up, make sure your issue is fixed and go again.
Just don’t go afk… of course its so simple, why didn’t i think of that!
Only a few buttons to press to stop it.
True, you can’t do much if say your internet just dies. or you have a power cut… but you are still the reason that match was soiled.
It is only -50. It is hardly going to change anything.
Take responsibility, and get those wins back.
You clearly didn’t read or understand what im talking about, but im not going to waste time arguing with a moron.
No I read. And no of this is a game issue. This is a you issue. You are just complaining because it has caught you out. You ruined a game for others and lost SR because of it… You think your team cares about the reason… even if you came back a minute or 2 later… that is enough to have completely killed their chances.
You can ignore the door. Or answer it and accept the in game consequences.
Not difficult.
The game cannot distinguish whether you disconnected on purpose or not.
If a player actually were to leave in the first minute then the game has to be extended, which means players have to wait even longer at the start of the match.
Having a teammate that’s AFK for the first few minutes is detrimental to the game creating an unfair advantage.
Don’t play if you’re expecting someone at the door, simple as that.
Sometimes things can happen, though i don’t think we should be able to have players be afk at the most crucial time.
Am I missing something here? Usually you can rejoin a match after disconnecting. I’ve done it, and I’m almost certain that I didn’t loose the 50SR you get if you’re unable to reconnect.
I don’t know about when you actually quit via the menu or you’re inactive for so long that you’re kicked. I’ve never had that happen to me so that might be different.
Come to think of it, why is there a leave match option in comp at all?
