Time out for quitters

Continuing the discussion from Can u add penalty for leaving?:

@Darth_Coffee

Honestly i dont think there should be a penalty for leaving until they add solo play. There is nothing worse for some people then joining a game and seeing its basiclly a speedrun group and then being punished for leaving because you absolutely detest that kind of play. People shouldn’t have to sit through an entire level of the polar opisite of their own playstyles if they dont want to.

If they wana try to endure it…fine thats cool but if they wana say f**k it and leave they should have that option too.

Goes the other way too if someone joins a group that is slow and steadying it and they just wana blitz through as fast as possible and the rest of the team is “plodding” along and doing things at their own pace. I immagine from that end it would be equally infuriating. Add on a penalty for leaving to that…no

To quote…well me i think a punishment for leaving is an absolutely awfull idea that punishes players for not playing like other players. Without the ability to play ALONE should you desire a punishment for quitters, even one so short is unacceptable.

Also i have seen that in co-op games simmilar to this with a leave penalty people wont leave they will just purposely die and or sabotage the match to fail so they can be done anyway. Even i am guilty of this in other “left 4 dead likes” with a desertion penalty. It was like a 20 minute leave penalty so i just died every time they rezed me and messed around on my phone the whole time.
