Am I the only one being fed up with leavers in unranked? People joining, going solo and then leaving immediately when downed? This seems so easy to solve by the devs and yet it’s still an issue. I’d wish they just made it so you can only reconnect and can not join another match while the previous match is ongoing…

And in ranked while players don’t leave they’ll just go play solo hide and seek.

    Rocket league does this and it’s the reason I don’t play anymore.

    RL’s matchmaking routinely kicked my friend out of matches after they’ve completed. Everything I go leave a match to join him (since I have the audacity of wanting to play woth my friend) RL would punish me and say I can’t join another match for 5-10 minutes.

    Doing this for ranked? Sure I get it. Everyone that signs up is supposed to be committed to trying. But unranked is supposed to be more casual and less commitment. If I have to leave a match prematurely to handle something irl real quick then come back, or if their netcode kicks my friend out and i want to join his match I shouldn’t get punished for that.

    So I hope apex doesn’t start doing that.

      I don’t mean a system that blocks you from playing, I just mean you can only rejoin the match you’ve left but can’t start a new one. If you (or your friend) gets kicked / disconnected you can join the same old game again, just not start a new one until you squad is wiped (or you haven’t been resurrected for let’s say 3 minutes.

    It doesn’t bother me tbh. I prefer ranked and just play pubs for practice or if I am too tired to accomplish anything in ranked. If others want to screw around this is the game type to do it in.
