Re-Implement Leaving Casual Games without being banned.

[.w.y.a.t.t.]

This was by far THE worst decision you have ever made. Casual is casual, if you want games where you can't leave without forfeiting (having every teammate agree to leave) then keep that for every 'competitive playlist'.

I'm willing to say that 50% of this game's toxicity problems stem from not being able to leave a game when a teammate is throwing/sabotaging/griefing. It's completely ridiculous and I have yet to meet a single person that agrees with making it impossible to leave casual games. Honestly still pretty unreal.

I'd also go into the insane MMR difference between casual playlist and comp, at least for myself, but that's a whole 10 page MLA format rant with cited sources. GG fortnite, I mean Psyonix.

No.

Wait that's a thing? I was just playing and didn't have an option in the menu to leave, but instead had a "vote to concede" or something like that. lol

you can leave. its only a few minutes ban for matchmaking. it prevents players leaving and rejoining to find oponents they can easily beat because they cant handle getting scored on. if some IRL stuff happens and you have to leave you can easily requeue up again when you come back some minutes later.
best change in a long time. before casual was unplayable

Yeah welcome to the new tryhard casual mode wehre you can vote to concede and will be banned with up to 2 hour bans for exiting a casual game ...

And no its not only a 5 minute ban - it moves up to 2 hours very fast and will go down only over a rather long period of time.

But i guess that is also the reason why we dont see the player count anymore. I guess many other people just stopped playing aswell - because this isnt casual anymore and its not fun at all. Its now just a mode for players that are too afraid of playing ranked because they care more about ranks than having fun in a casual game ...

No

if the bann moves up to 2 hours for you you dontr just quit games because of irl issues. you quit habitually because you cant cope with getting scored on.
what real life sport do you play where you always run away during a match because you are frustrated? you would not be welcome back anywhere. so aply a bit of your irl curtesy into your online world and everything will be fine

Just because its casual does't mean you are any less of a ♥♥♥♥ for leaving the game halfway through.

You do realize that with the cooldown you can move up to 2 hours pretty easily over a longer period of time?
By the way - what real life sport is only virtual and puts random people in a team for a 3 minute game?
I play short games like this because i can play and quit them at any moment - when i do sports in real life its obviously planned ahead with specific people for a specific ammount of time - thats something completely different.

I mostly quit when i have something else to do, when the game is lost (>= 4 goals difference) with uneven teams or for example if i have laggs etc. - and yes i think its legit to leave a game in casual if the teams are so uneven that the game will probably end with 0:10.

I wont even respond to the rest of your posting - this is called casual and not tryhard mode for a reason. I use the casual mode to hop in and out whenever i have some spare time to play not actually focusing on the game while listening to music. I play it pretty much like i used to play games like the old counterstrike (never cared about competitive modes).

Yeah and your comment now gives you a moral highground ...

If you want to play with rules and bans without quitting - why dont you just play ranked mode and let casuals play casual mode?

It really seems to me that this is not about casual players but about people afraid to even play ranked for whatever reason and about people so concerend with their MMR that they want to play casual like a ranked mode ...

I might get a lot of hate for this one. But here goes.

I used to hate the new system/ idea of bringing bans for leaving "casual" game mode. I mean it's named "casual" for a reason. So recently I found something and realised the new system can cause more harm than good if approached from another perspective.

You can actually abuse the new system to annoy your teammate if he is being an a$$. Just throw the game hard and when he asks to forfeit or concede, ask him to leave on his own. He either have to suffer you for the rest of the match or have to quit the match resulting in a ban. Either way you are wasting his time while having fun at doing that.

I mean there is nothing at stake here. Not even your rank.

Not you rank . But your sanity . You're as toxic as him if you do that . But it's a good idea . Let them feel the same for not ff-ing

I know it's a toxic behaviour. But with a system like this in place, I dont think there is any other way to deal with toxic players, than abusing the system itself. I don't think even the reports are doing any good.

Don't we all prefer to be the "victor" than being the "victim" ?

Maybe, instead of banning those that leave, reward those that stay.

I agree. Quoted that comment, replying with a "+1". Only to get it removed and issued with a "spam warning" from forum moderator. lol

The problem is that people often used to leave after just 1 goal. This change was put in place to prevent that.
