Reguarding No Stats + No Leavers

[`SunTzu]

My suggestion is this: if you host a game that is both No Stats AND No Leavers, it would give leavers of this gametype a leave.

If anyone has ever played a few No Stats game, they will tell you that they will ALMOST ALWAYS have leavers in them. Out of all the No Stats games that I have played, about 80% or more of them are destroyed by people leaving.

There is currently no penalty for leaving no stats games. This means that players are free to leave whenever they want, with absolutely no penalty.

When players host a game with the 'No Leavers' option enabled, they want to play a game that doesn't have leavers in it. Unfortunately, if you are playing No Stats, leaves aren't added, regardless of the 'No Leavers' option being enabled. I think this is a problem that should be rectified.

*please also note that if you want to play a no stats game where you are free to leave ( due to time constraints and not caring about wasting the time of 9 other people ) you can always play no stats without the 'no leaver' function enabled.*

I've enjoyed so many games learning how to play a hero and just as it gets interesting, well i get a farm, they leave and its GG.
S2 should enable an option where Leavers are punished for ruining others games.

Sounds logical

Wow, 3 bumps in 2 days.
And yes, there should be done something against nostats leavers.
Maybe both a normal game leaver % and a nostat leaver %?

I fully agree that this should be implemented. I play no stat because I don't want to hurt my stats when I play with my in real life friends because they're REALLY bad lol, they don't leave the no stat, but our game always gets ruined by others leaving, therefore they can never get good at the game without playing an actual game in STAT. Soooooo due to these circumstances they can never get good unless they want to start to get good with about a 800 PSR or something stupid like .15 KDR. Anyways, if I had a choice I would make a leaver percent for stat games and ANOTHER leaver percent for NOSTATS. Give it a month and BAM, less players actually leaving no stat games. GG

No leavers works out fine as it is. The purpose of the option is to prevent people with high leave percentage from joining your games.

By giving it this extra functionality you are excluding this case:

"What If I want to allow a player with high leave percentage in my game while i still want to prevent him to leave?"


What we really need is this.

This gives the leavers a second chance. Leavers are people too.

This actually fits better to what I want than the other suggestion, I'll sign for this one.

And leonteus, by playing no stat games and leaving you're bypassing the leaver % meassure, you can leave 100% of the games you play, yet never be labeled as a leaver, something must be done so people can enjoy no stat games, while not screwing up those who like to leave as soon as things turn ugly.

Indeed that can happen in a world were all games included the "prevent player to leave option" but not the current "No leavers" option.

That's far from true in reality though.

As I said again, by giving the "No leavers" option 2 functionalities (a. prevent leavers from joining and b. prevent them from leaving) you are risking that the only option for a leaver to join a game again would be to reset his stats.

We are trying to make better, more fun and more available to all. This just restricts our options.

"Prevent leavers from joining" and "Prevent people from leaving" should be 2 different options.
