as title says, this is unfair bs, had 2 people on my team leave the game, then had to wait 2 minutes just to receive a loss and get -25pt, cool blizzard, very cool
Totally agree. Just had two back to back full team leavers. Why am I getting penalised for other people ragequitting??
If that were the case, it’ll get hugely exploited, unfortunately.
They could find a way to make it unexploitable like , if the leaver is in your party , all of the party members still loose points , but honestly i just stopped playing after a streak of like 5/6 losses of which like 1 or 2 where fair , in one game I had a thrower reaper that in second half had 600 dps and we lost 100% because of him ,and he gets away with a loss and some reports and we all still loose points and this is also unfair , and the other like 3 games there where people who left or other throwers , honestly I get why people are migrating to marvel rivals if this is the state of the game , I have to play competitive just to find leavers and throwers and still get penalized for their behavior, thanks blizzard. Also I know they are never gonna read this since they care less then nothing about their community and respond to people with copypasted messages , honestly great game…
how? If anyone of the group drops “to save the rest” he will suffer a severe penalty so he cannot do it again really.
So u’d have to decide to use a throwaway account in advance but that means u couldnt reap the fruits if you win either really, at least for more than 1 or just a few games which seems pointless to do in Comp.
So all in all OP is right and the way to go is also clear - dont punish anyone for what they didnt do and heavily punish the one who did instead.
Also if u accidentally drop connection and then rejoin and STILL WIN there should be NO sanctions for you at all, aslo completely rtrded by blizz to still do this.
Or. And this is a bold solution… Leave it as it is.
Maybe increase the time penalties for leaving so it’s a little harder early on.
Not really, is high rank you dont even need to party, the que is so long, if two people que at the same time 9/10 games they will match with each other.
Another possible solution - Blizz could add backfill to Comp but with the stipulation that if you backfill in Comp there’s no penalty - that person would either gain on a win or nothing on a loss, (should probably be opt-in only, so only those who agreed - i.e. for shorter queues, etc - would backfill).
Wouldn’t solve all the issues to be sure, but at least would get you back to a full 6, (yes, I said 6 ) and give your team a decent chance of finishing the game fairly without unfairly penalizing the person who’s agreed to hop in.
Noooo thank you.
Back fill completely screws is the original MMR matching as they just pluck anyone in a vague window to fill the game.
Do that in ranked and you will be f’ing with peoples games.
