Bot replacement?

[DefectiveByDesign]

Someone mentioned this in a match, and I was thinking yeah that could be a good feature. So to decrease wait time for high level players, you could add an additional checkbox for joining an existing game that has dropped players. I don't think it should be open to anyone below lvl 80 though. This could help even matches where everyone left a game with high level sharks, and make matchfinding easier.

Or not, since it would also change the game dynamics, unless you made another option specifically for allowing people to join, and everyone had to have it enabled to work.

Another benefit allowing this could bring is helping AFK lobby members. I'm sure we've all had that one guy who was AFK, got kicked from the match, and comes back to find he's waiting in the lobby while everyone else is in game.

There should be some way for them to re-join the match, instead of the team either playing out, or leaving to start a new match. Lot of benefits can be had for allowing some sort of bot replacement. Even a minor one such as AFK teammates.

yes because I'm sure players will want to back fill into game where people have rage quit.

I like this idea.

I wish I had more to say than that lol.

The idea itself is good... but, sadly, the implementation would cost much for a relatively little gain.
