Here is how to have less leavers

[Butra]

have people play the hero they want to play instead of you forcing a hero onto them because players MUST pick 3 heroes... Just a thought...

[Grahdens]

So if 5 people want to play the same hero, who's getting him first? what do the others play as?

how do other mobas solve this? how do other shooters solve this?

They solve it by having a functional draft system.

That will still force people to play a character they didnt initially want. Same result, different system.

Then they wont be in same game

[SharkPlush]

it will kill queue times

individual draft is already good, it should have a team vs team draft mode where you take turns. If this was the case, we could just ban Haze, or counter-pick a hero with a stun like Ivy, Bebop, Seven, Abrams etc.

I mean really its 3, you can choose a preference order, there are 3 that feel op at any given time, you can also pick in a biased way to get unpopular heroes more likely.

too bad. meaty leaving penalties tend to keep those kinds of crybabies at bay.

[SharkPlush]

also in the other thread it sounds like if you dont get your preferred pick it gives you a bias. so make sure your popular hero (haze etc) is purple, and the other two yellow and white something about having a white selection supposedly speeds it up, too

game should
A: Let me play my character
B: Let me leave during the rooftop loading section BARE MINIMUM so someone else can play if i dont bet bebop
C: Let me leave the match without 1hr+ long abandon penalty
D: Let my team surrender when were getting ♥♥♥♥ on so we dont have to be held hostage for another 20+min

Let's say you don't get Bebop:
A: You got your character! But someone else (doesn't have to be someone who picked Bebop) didn't get theirs. You get stuck in a loop of queues until every single person in the game gets exactly who they wanted to play.
B: Same as A except you're the one leaving. You get stuck in a loop until you find a statistically improbable match where everyone gets exactly what they want.
C: No, because then you ruin the game for people more than once an hour.
D: No, because people like you who give up easily or expect to always get exactly what you want every time don't see any value in losing or any chance of coming back, even when other members of your team are competing or doing better than the other team.

Stop being selfish or play with bots.

A Bebop one-trick who definitely should be higher rated and it is absolutely positively not his fault, it's his team.

Checks out. I'm glad you're ruining your rank by leaving so many games so I never have to play with you.
