Quit penalty: Things to keep in mind | Forums

[CaptainPwnet]

I still cannot believe that there are so many people supporting rage quitting and try to justify it.[/B] No one likes sore losers. It's not a healthy approach to a game whatever the reasons you have!! People who constantly do that should be punished and flagged so they can just play against the same people who rage quit. Same system we have in Heroes of the Storm for instance.

The scary part is I see users who are admiting to rage quitting (shame on you by the way, really) have huge amount of posts written in this forum. I suppose that's why I always see so often useless complaining on forums of some game. Full of people who would rage quit because of reasons and be able to justify it and write normally about it. No words...

But about OP points out in this topic - What Sykoink wrote is of course very good to consider for devs before implementing the quit penalty, so that system can work better and fight off the real rage quitters. How it will turn out? We will see. But whatever issues the game has it does NOT justify rage quitting.

You see that's where the misunderstanding seems to be. Most of these people, myself included, are not advocating ragequitting or quitting in general. We are stating why implementing a penalty system at this point will be not only bad for the game, and likely lead to many more problems than it will solve, and is nothing but a pointless bandaid that only avoids the real issues of the game. Those issues being the lack of proper balanced matchmaking and a stable network platform to play on.

This is just UBI's scapegoat attempt to placate those of you frustrated with the issues involved with quitters. None of you should be satisfied with this and I can't believe how many of you choose to be so blind to the negative impact such a penalty will likely have on the game in it's current state. Not to mention how little effect it will have in trying to deal with the issue of quitting in the first place.

Stop pretending like what you are doing isn't affecting anyone.

You're one to talk "Mr. i leave the match as soon as my team is down by more than 500 points..."

On one hand you play Ubi's best White Knight in da horsebox, defending THEIR sh1t 9,5 out of 10 times, but on the other hand you straight out confessed, that you are a part of the problem by quitting all the time, not so long ago.

You're really the Homer Simpson of this forum dude...

Few solutions:

1. one free leave daily, afterwards you get 3min-10min-30min-4h ban etc. for each consequent leave within 12-24 hour period.

2. Free leave (or option to instantly surrender) upon player leaving the game

3. Allow other players hotjoin mid-game when other person leaves just like in battleground in WoW and so many other games

I have now said this what I feel like is about 700 times at this point.


That thread was stupendously stupid thread on my part and after lengthy PMs with various people on these forums (Most of whom you would recognize) explaining to me the numerous ways that I was ruining the game and was shown proof of that I decided that I was a ragequitting toolbox and set out to never leave a match again regardless and I haven't left a single match in over a month for ANY reason.


I am the example of what happens when someone sees reason and logic in someone elses point and changes the way I think about a particular subject.


Since that day I have been probably the most outspoken critic of ragequitting in WHATEVER form it takes. So go ahead and bring up a thread thats over a month and a half old, but don't pretend like I changed my mind overnight. I have been on these forums FOR WEEKS applauding and defending the decision to add leaver penalties.


Nice try though lol

While you are technically correct those instances will be in the minority.


The Leaver Penalty is a carpet bomb not a precision strike. It will catch some innocent people up in its claws, but the vast majority of the people affected will be the people that the penalties are intended to catch.



Yeah it sucks for the minority who didn't do anything wrong, but I will gladly take that over no penalties at all which is what we have right now and what we have right now is a clusterf***

While you are technically correct those instances will be in the minority.

minority.

With all of Ubisofts network connection errors right now?

[XxHunterHxX]

People ragequitting?

Yeah thats the players fault.

So if you eat something and you dont like it...then you should be forced to finish it no matter how bad it is....do you work for ubisoft and is that why you respond so positivie about evrithing that ubi is ??

If you are almost finished eating it? Yeah you deserve no refund and no sympathy.

Consider other competitive game situations - a football game, a tennis match, a golf match, etc. Players don't just leave when they are losing, or because the other team seems tougher than them, or they don't like the gear a member of the opposing team has. On the rare occasion a sporting player quits before the end of the game, there are harsh penalties.
I equate "rage" quitting with quitting on a sporting game, so am in favour of Ubisoft implementing a penalty but only if they are sure they won't penalise people who get disconnected by the game.
Also, the menu option to leave mid game should surely also be removed, or give a warning that penalties will follow.

[Utopie.]

I am all for punishing leavers. But I have to admit it worries me that Ubisoft wants to implement that in the current games state.

Even if the technic is good enough to distinguish between leaving and getting kicked, there are several situations I can imagine being very upset about a penalty because I left a game.

- Blurry screen
- Controller not working
- Black Screen
- A game that is resyncing every 30 seconds
- Group splitting
- Not able to move the character
- One or more of my team are getting an Error
...

All this are examples of problems my Team and I meet from time to time and if that happens to one or more in my Team at the beginning of a match I surely will feel bad about a penalty basically for wanting to play with my friends or wanting a match which is actually playable.

so yes I am all in for a penalty but I feel like the game needs a bunch of fixing before that.

Edit: and wow i totally forgot something that happens two times since playing that game: It just closed. Without warning or anything. Mid game it just closed completely. That was a new level of strange.

Its not your problem if the people quit the game. The fact that quitting bring disconnection is not a playare's fault. And you should whine with your friends at ubiLOL.

You shuold really invest some of the time you waste as white knight on these forum, to actually play or just inform yourself about others titles out there, new or old, disconnecting won't make the game crash for all for honor is the only exception, its time to do some math here

Dude if u join a game u accept to play a game with random Players. If u play for example Chess with ur friends, u wont throw the board away when u lose right? And if u do so u will hardly find anybody to Play with u.
Same here and it's tottally right. Imo too many quits should also result in a van dir 3 days or sth. And yes there is a difference between getting a dc and a ragequit.
