How should Ian and co. handle ranked game disconnections in 2010?

[ImagiNationFreak]

Disconnections should be an automatic lose. Be it accidentally or intentional.

Also if a person quits the game, not by disconnecting but by pausing the game and selecting to quit, then we should just get a win, we should not have to finish the game against the CPU.

This is total BS. You can't ban someone for quitting a game.I have quit several games because I refuse to waste my gaming time playing people that abuse glitches and cheese it up all game. If EA does this they will lose a lot of sales.

Disconnect/Quit = Loss. Not buts and ifs about it.

Fifa implements the same thing. If your opponent quits, you get the win no matter what. Even if they disconnect.


99% of quitting online is via quitting and plug-pulling.


i would rather get a loss for the 1% of the time my network randomly shuts down than have plug puller receive no punishment for quitting.

its insane. EA STOP ENABLING QUITTERS by reasoning: we don't want to upset people who genuinely get disconnected. Thats utter bs.

everyone would rather receive a win for opponent disconnects than NOTHING.

Out of all EA sports title, only Madden you have to finish vs the CPU. I'm not sure about NCAA football. But my question to EA is why is Madden treated different than their other titles? It doesn't make sense.

When the whole Nfl deal went down and I decided to jump into the world of Ea football this was shocking to me. CONTINUE VS CPU!? Who the hell thought that was a good idea?

Terrible terrible terrible idea! This needs to be one of the first things to get thrown into the recycle bin ASAP! That and those stupid ginormous helmets for the intros. ASAP, I tells ya, ASAP!

the only problem with this is that someone will get a friend of theres to play against them over and over and that friend of theres will intentionally quit soo his buddy can gain a win time after time after time and move up to the top of the leaderboards with a 64-0 record

Tough crap...

If you want to quit, you should get banned. Quitting because people "cheeze" doesn't make you any better of a person. You're still a quitter. Cheezing is apart of the game, there's no getting away from it. If you don't like it, then don't play. If you play, deal with it and BEAT them. If you're good enough, cheeze won't beat you.

And besides, this would be for the greater good. After a month or two, Madden would be nearly free of quitters, which means legit players wouldn't have to deal with these idiots.
