Vanguard dev confirms punishments are coming for Ranked Play quitters ActvisionA Call of Duty: Vanguard dev has confirmed some much-requested changes coming to ranked play, with players who quit out of matches and leave their team at a disadvantage now liable for punishment. Ranked play quitters have long been the bane of any competitive experience. A few rounds or objectives go the way of the enemy, and there\u2019s that one teammate who simply leaves the game rather than try to turn things around. If you queue up as a solo or duo player it\u2019s even worse, too. Once one teammate leaves and the situation looks even bleaker, another player leaves, leaving you in a 2v4 or even a 1v4. It\u2019s an unwinnable situation and ultimately feels like a huge waste of time, as well as SR. That might not be the case much longer, however. \u201cDisconnect penalties are coming,\u201d confirmed lead game designer Lawrence Metten. \u201cWe\u2019re also discussing supplemental SR adjustments for players that we know are intentionally leaving matches.\u201d Disconnect penalties are coming.

With most complaints being based around SR changes after a win\/loss and teammates unceremoniously leaving mid-match, it\u2019s clear Treyarch \u2014 who developed this iteration of ranked for Vanguard \u2014 are aware of what needs to be done.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
