"Quitting" Penalty with Freeze Offs
-
That would be helpful. I'm even fine with it being 15 runs or something. I don't mind losing by a few, or even a lot over 9 innings, but being destroyed by someone in the first 3 innings makes playing unfun and pointless.
I'm not wasting my next hour or so giving up 8 runs an inning for anyone's enjoyment. -

I think quitting is fine in event games or BR that is only 3 innings, but it can be annoying when I sit down to play 9 and 3 games in a row people quit after 2 innings so I think ranked should have a penalty. Either way a run rule could be smart

Try turning your controller off and on again when frozen. It’s worked for me almost every time.

That is an interesting solution, I will definitely have to give that a try. Have you tried that in co op as well? If so did just one person do it or everyone

I’ve only played CO-OP in the tech test and I don’t recall any freeze offs.

5 minutes is not a long time.
A 24 hour cooldown would be crazy.It increases my internet acted weird for a second on Saturday and I was in coop games with my friend(he was at my house) he kept getting kicked happened three times until I reset my router
After the 3rd time he got kicked- the cool down period was 30mins
-
Obviously most people are not going to wait out freeze offs so they have to fix it ( lol on that) or remove the cool down .
This could all be solved if we could co op vs the computer or friends. I know amazing thought.

Yea that is annoying. And sometimes it's not even your fault or your own internet, the internet of your opponents could be a problem and we just wouldnt know. I think 2k had a feature where if someone's internet was unplayable or causing freezing there would be a timer that would count them out if it didn't reconnect. Idk, they just gotta figure something so we can work around freeze offs

I dont understand why there neds to be a quit penalty.... I get why in games where you have teammates but not a single players game. If Im getting waxed I shouldnt have to sit through an hour long game. Espcially with how obnoxious some people play.
There’s a mercy rule. If you aren’t down by 10 then keep trying . If you wanna leave that bad then throw some pitches dead center and hope your opponent goes up 10
-
I think SDS has the right idea, It’s just not perfected yet. If I was a dev instead of issuing a cool down penalty what I would do is make it that if you quit - You get ZERO XP from that game & your opponent gets whatever the average XP is for a full game win. I think this would be more fair especially when it’s an instance of a freeze off.
-
Have they fixed the banning for freeze offs yet?

This is getting ridiculous, Co-op is broken!!! Me and a buddy just got a 4 hour ban because of a freeze off. I let it sit there for an hour and it was still frozen. I mean wtf can a person do? I don’t quit very often at all unless it’s a natural surrender and even that isn’t very often. This is ruining a good game. I praise the Devs for listening to their community when making a knew game but they are acting like they just don’t care anymore. Take the bans away! I would rather deal with quitters than not get to play the game at all bc of bans after a freeze!!!!

If it's already up to 4 hours; you've quit more than 'i don't quit very often' as I adds in longer periods the more you quit.

It’s probably all freeze-off quits. I’m up to 3 hours from only freezes

5 minutes isn't long because that was the first one I ever received. It goes up from there, so if it happens multiple times it will eventually be a long wait
I believe in a stream they said it would compound for chronic quitters. Don’t recall the particulars if that was “quitting x games in a y period”, but don’t think it was for “cumulative sum of quits”.
I missed that part of the stream. Is there a cool down for regular quits (from the game menu) or just dashboarding?
you have to quit as a team to avoid the cooldown penalty.
-
I have no problem with penalizing the “dash boarders”. Those idiots are trying to screw people out of XP. However I do not believe you should be penalized for a regular quit.
-
The only people screwing someone out of xp is sds. They can still add up the xp and reward them its just another [censored] bug like the other 500 thats in the game. Theres no penalty in any other video game for quitting a match. [censored] is ruined.
-
Who would want to play the full 9 innings when the game isn’t even close. And some people have to quit if they have to leave, then just take your win and leave, I understand you want to stat pad tho.

Agreed. I was getting hammered by someone early yesterday and quit but I didn't realize it was taboo. They still got points for the win and their stats/xp I assume so why should it be a major deal every once in a while?
From my perspective, I think it is more than the win. I would prefer to have a homerun derby off whoever I am facing and get a bunch of Ks to get more XP. Also lots of people who do program missions in games and need xp and/or innings. I am usually expecting to go 9 innings so it can be frustrating when people quit, especially if its multiple games in a row. With that being said, I would rather quitting be allowed than to get penalized for freeze offs
