Leave penalty solved nothing | Forums

[The_B0G_]

This quit penalty has helped convince my friends to finally buy Battlefield 1 though, which is on sale for 31 dollars on Playstation store, so I do thank you for that.

Leave penalty was introduced to stop rage quitting and make the game experience better for everyone.

Sorry to say but it's made the game worse.
soon as players see low rank and low gear score on there team , they leave.
Soon as players see more then one centurion or shanobi on the opposing team , they leave.

I'm joining more and more games that are already in play and are filled with bots.

Looks to me that people are quitting even more then what they was before

I'm not surprised.
Before the leave penalty, you could always stay a bit and see if your team could fight the odds against stronger opponants - sometimes leading to very good surprises or just plain enjoyable matches.
If things turned sour, people would just leave and try another MM right away (I have no problem with that - except for the connections issues, but that's on Ubi, not on the players).

Now that LP is here, and that MM hasn't changed, who's gonna take the risk to start playing an unbalanced game, knowing that they will have to endure it to the end - fun or not?
Nobody's gonna take the risk to loose another 10 minutes, it's best to quit right away and lose 5 minutes only at another MM.

If we had a proper lobby, where one could choose a character and see the rep of all players before actually launching a game, we wouldn't even need a LP.

Spot on mate ! Couldn't agree more . Just made in even worse .
Like you said it's a problem with the connections . instead of taking the blame and sorting the real issue out they have passed the book onto the players and made the experience even worse

Disconections were over the top yesterday. It took me over 30 minutes to actually finish a match. Most of times I would get disconected the moment the match started.

You guys nailed it! This game uses the same "idea" of Titan Fall, same number of players, ai controlled minions and so on. But respawn and EA have worked the things out and created a game with almost no issues on multiplayer.
Here they used the same "formula", but Ubisoft is light years away from respawn and EA on that subject. The connection issues are going since beta, i have the same errors since the release and the fault is all on Ubisoft poor set of choices on the subject.
