Allow Deserting In Quick Play

[MoniqueMiles]

I'm sorry but I'm not sticking around in a game where I'm playing tank with a DPS Mantis, Jeff and Luna behind me...

I realize quick play doesn't matter, but doesn't that justify being able to desert if the team comp and players are just a lost cause? I'd rather just get on to the next game where people are gonna try.

You're not gonna improve vs an obvious pub stomping team or with obvious troll team hence why I suggest Op que competitive instead of quickplay

I'm not talking about that type of improvement.. at least not entirely. I'm talking about a sort of mental improvement where one's first reaction to an unfavorable situation (losing and not getting carried) isn't to instantly flee and ragequit the match, only to then requeue and continue the cycle.

I know a stomp when I see it and they pretty much never turn around. Same thing happens in Overwatch all the time. The whole "I can do it if I just believe!" only works in anime.
I will stay in stomp matches the vast majority of the time, I will sweat my brains out trying to win, but I accomplish absolutely nothing whatsoever. I don't even make a dent, because the skill difference between the teams is so big.

Imagine if a pro NFL team vs'd a junior high football team.
Do you think the junior high team would have ANY chance of winning? Of course not.

That's what happens a lot in pvp games like this because they have never gotten a good matchmaker.

Sometimes I will quit, because I know there is absolutely no reason to stay there and absolutely no chance of winning.

People also always look at it as a negative. "Oh no a quitter! Now we have no chance!"
Did you have a chance with the leaver staying? NO. If they stayed, guess what? You still would have lost!
But now what? Oh, you get backfill. An entirely different person.
Guess what? They can be better than the person who quit and win you the match.

I have won quit a few stomps because someone on my team quit and the person we got to replace them was very good.

Someone staying in a stomp match isn't going to magically make it a win.

I'm tired of people blaming all the problems with matchmaking on leavers. They don't give you the terrible, unwinnable matches.
The matchmaker does.
And the devs are the ones who created that.
Blame them.

Those 11 other players fun matter more than yours TC. Try showing a little bit of sportsmanship and respectful towards tge others playing.

It’s quickplay, it’s not like it matters who wins or loses.

It's an objective based team PvP game if you're not going to even try because you don't think it matters then do us all a favor and just queue for Bots.

Aren't you the dude who made a thread about how everyone in the jeff event is a sweaty tryhard lol? It's not about using anime magic thinking to magically pull a win; who gives a ♥♥♥♥ about winning or losing when it comes to this. This sht extends past video games. It's about not giving up and quitting at the slightest sight of adversity like someones whos weak-minded. It's about having a strong, balanced and healthy mentality.

Now you ask ''How does this psych mumbo-jumbo even apply? All I'm doing is playing a video game!'' well that's exactly my point. If you give up and falter this easily in a VIDEO GAME (a completely inconsequential setting with no IRL repercussions) than what does that say about you as a person? Fking stick through it like an actual man and learn from the ''unwinnable'' match. Stop fleeing at the slightest sight of anything but a free win. Grow as a person, and fix your mentality, otherwise it's going to harm your ingame performance, but also harm you in real life.

Imagine complaining about the team composition when they reply with "it's just quickplay", then why does quickplay punish leavers? Why does quickplay have a hidden MMR/sbmm whatever rating to keep you around 50% win rate? The only thing casual about quickplay is the bots.

with that being said ppl who are obliviously trolling or actively not helping the team should be moderated even more or to the same extent of the leavers and actively banned as it's essentially throwing all the same, forcing ppl to with a dysfunctional team is with no form of escape is boarder line mental torture

You can do the same by getting over your obsession with me and stop following me to every thread to insult me.

Stop self-victimizing - you're doing the same thing I'm criticizing you of again. I just saw your post in this thread and recognized you because you're once again doing the same thing you were doing in your original thread. You can interpret my posts as me insulting you, but all I'm really doing is calling out your flaws in your mentality.

Stop self-victimizing

Stop proving me right.

Regarding what? I don't think you're actually trying to argue a specific point, otherwise you would have addressed something I've said thus far. I hope the things I've said help you have a positive change on your mentality, even if in the moment you may have perceived them as a personal attack.

I used to be like you - I'd always blame some sort of external factor for my failure but I promise you, things genuinely do get better once you take responsibility and accountability.

(btw you responded to me first in this thread so just stop with the self-victimizing stalking accusation stuff lol)

Nope. 7 out of 10 times I carry my team. I've turned plenty of matches around by switching to DPS and going 20/30-0 when they were unable to kill something...

Its not about skill. I have plenty of that. Its about me not really wanting to try for people who aren't even making an attempt to play the game the right way. Like someone else said, if you want to Rambo and pew-pew and solo 1v6 in a PVP team based game, I'd prefer that you did it against bots.

Anyway. Unsubscribing from this thread. It's devolved.

Just alt-tab until the game is over.

nobody is taking into account someone comes in after you so you subject one person into an unwinnable stomp
