I find it a just reward for those of whom rage and cannot handle loosing. That being said. Connection problems. Bad matchmaking and the old balance debate clusterstruddle. Makes this game fun and also infuriating. Mostly infuriating.
Back to the point. I have a problem with quitting a player vs AI match and receiving a 10 min ban. What if a friend invited me to play a 2v2 match? I have to quit then wait 10 mins for leaving a player vs AI match? That does not make sense in my mind.

I was looking through the today and saw that someone posted this reply around one of the forums I was chatting in and mentioned something interesting. He said you can still quit if you want and after further reading and testing, by golly u are right sir. I am sorry I forgot your name. While part of me thinks I shouldn't do this because it spreads the toxicity of the forum the other part of me says well screw em Ubisoft doesn't care. So with that in mind all you have to do to quit is hit the home button on your console, highlight For Honor, and select quit which bypasses the 10 min penalty. So then you just load back in. Keep in mind I was for the penalty and actually think it too short of time but it goes to show it doesn't matter. Some of you are gonna get mad but let's be honest, it isn't like this isn't going to be everywhere by tomorrow and just shows another "fix" that fixes nothing. I don't think there is a way around this either as it is part of the online service through the platform whether it be PS 4 or Xbox. The price of a penalty quitting and reloading, about 90 secs. The price of the devs thinking they can save this game by implementing yet another awful "fix", priceless.

Feedback: people still quit. that never bothered me anyway. BUT, I personally think twice about quitting an awful game, its amazing how a certain loss game can turn around and you win! doesnt always happen of course. If the enemy are swarming your spawn and its 999 - 12 to them and your team are all vanishing then you need a strong will to not quit and it feels like a double punishment to have to stay in and see your death count rise but not your kill count. its not the loss its the ownage thats pure butthurt.
I dont get it though, in other games its not as painfull getting a spanking and i would rarely quit but in this game its full on misery, dunno what to say... make the games longer

Ever since word surfaced that a quit penalty was going to be implemented, I stopped playing with others. I just don't trust the system and the penalty time is a joke. Problem solved for me. I just play with bots against bots. No network disconnects, grief play, rage quitters, mismatched skilled players, etc., involved. I honestly enjoyed playing each hero as I want and when I want. My brother, on the other hand, dabbles in multiplayer against bots. We've seen how its been working. Sure the network stability has improved. Far better than what it's been like from the beginning. But this new quit penalty is not really working as intended: to deter and discourage players from rage quitting; Players still do just like they always have done before. Perhaps you should increase the time based on how often they quit. First time offense, 10 minutes; Second time, 15 minutes; Third time, 30 minutes. After that, maybe they need to be suspended for 24 hours. Perhaps, they'll learn their lesson and either play it through, or play with bots against bots. Game is still good, People, and you know it. So stop bashing Ubisoft for giving us this much. Instead, encourage them to make it better. May not happen as fast as you like it to be; but your consistent feedback en masse will increase the likelihood of it happening.

Just had an evening where every single match I was in featured large numbers of ragequitters. They either completely disrupted the game by causing re-syncs at vital moments as they quit (for example, I was about to evade a blow that would have killed me, the game began to re-sync, when it restarted, I was unlocked from my attacker and his sword hit me before I could re-lock and do anything about it - this was in a break and cost the game) or, like just now, 3 of the enemy team quit after a couple of minutes leaving my team in a 4 vs 4 Player vs Player Dominion with an enemy team that was 75% bots.
TL;DR it is not working, at all.

The game re-sync at critical battle moments are not new to me. I've gotten used to it. I used to think people would respectfully wait for re-sync,lock on and continue. Sometimes I'll take invisible damage during re-sync ,so I figured what's on my screen differs from my opponent. So now I aim away,spam the a,then ready up once I've rolled. I've even executed people,then re-sync,and now they're alive again.Hint:attack differently when this happens. I'm on the Xbone so players now reset the game/console instead of "officially ragequitting" INCREASING the chance of the match crashing.The penalty is 10 min. It takes 3 minutes to reload the game. I've come to accept the ubidevs left behind on FH are not the best or brightest.
