Quitting Fights: DNFs Need Attention

[LoveThisLife]

The DNF penalty need to increase.

I fight a guy all the time (BboyAplus123) and anytime he is getting submitted or even gets taking to the ground (sometimes) he just quits.

He is far from the only guy that does this.

I have been matched with him about 40 times (which is another issue that needs to be addressed) and he has probably quit over half of our matches.

I suggest that all DNFs get count as a submission and there should be a temp ban for repeated DNFs.

Re: Quitting Fights: DNFs Need Attention

DNF drops their ranking points significantly, so just keep winning and you should stop playing them. But I agree it should result in a temp ban, and the matchmaking has a lot of issues, from being paired up against the same guy who you beat, or who has beat you, repeatedly, to getting nothing but trash-tier red bar matchups for 10 minutes at a time.

Re: Quitting Fights: DNFs Need Attention

There are tons of guys that quit out when I match with them because they know they got grapple****ed last time. I agree it should be a submission or at least that something should be done to prevent our subs being turned into tko victories.

I don't think we should ban for quitting too much though, it doesn't hurt us because we still get a W and move onto the next one.

Re: Quitting Fights: DNFs Need Attention

What i'd like to see is an "unskippable" cut-scene that humiliates the player.

If you're on the feet when the player quits, his character does a "Waving off the fight" kind of motion, and if you're on the ground, he visually taps the ground repeatedly.

While this is happening, the crowd boo's as loudly as possible and the commentators say something about the fighter being a quitter and coward. It'd be great if the winner can quit out of this cut-scene, but the loser can't... he HAS to watch it and the only way to avoid watching it is by turning off the game and restarting.

That's what i'd like. UD3 had something very similar to this.

One can hope though.

Edit:

The win should ALWAYS count as a submission anytime someone quits. Not a TKO.

Maybe a verbal submission animation/scene? And a "SUB (verbal)" result on the record. I'm not seeing them have the commentators berate someone who decided to throw in the towel though, they certainly wouldn't do that in real life.

I report them for quitting early but also screenshot the “ connection to opponent has been lost” lol, I have a huge trophy collection on my page...

It does hurt us though, we get like 2 points maybe for the dnf win and a lot of these guys are doing that intentionally for that reason... it also takes away your kos or subs in our record....

Re: Quitting Fights: DNFs Need Attention

I personally don't have such an issue with people who quit, I'm just wondering: I know they take a massive point hit for quitting, but I'm not sure the winner takes a lot of points for it, do they? I don't think they do, in fact, don't quote me on that but I think I got a grand total of 2 pts after a DNF win once. So yeah, maybe that should be looked into too.

Yes I had around 250 wins last season and my tko/sub/dec’s added up to around 190 something, I don’t like it because I ever get to know how’s many sub wins I have

Take it a step further for realism and add a cutscene of dana white talking **** about you in the post fight press conference

Re: Quitting Fights: DNFs Need Attention

I don't see why people have such an issue with the opponent quitting. I can understand if you're about to get a submission since it goes on record as a TKO but other than that, just take your win and move on. You already lose a lot of points if you DNF. Outside of you not getting the sub on your record, it's not it hurting you, you still win. Maybe you get less points but I'm sure they could look at the damage and statistics and give whoever was ahead the same points that they would've got for a KO.

The only reason it drives me crazy is because it takes away the replay when they quit. When I set up and nail a super nasty KO and I don't get to see the replay that guts me.

I would just wonder how this would affect getting ddosed, since if you get ddosed it counts as a DNF.

That’s probably the only reason they don’t suspend, no excuse though... rage quitting is a very prevalent thing in competitive gaming so MOST disconnects are completely intentional.. COD used to do it when your team would bail halfway through a losing fight...

Although it's a cool idea, if I were (still) a habitual ragequitter I'd take dashboarding/restarting the game over the cutscene every time.

I used to be very angry and competitive and used to ragequit a lot in other fighting games before I grew out of it.

I didn't care that I lost points, as long as I could deny my opponent the satisfaction of getting an (in my eyes) "unfair" win over me. Deny my opponent getting that promotion in Tekken or that rank-up in Street Fighter, and even if they did get points they wouldn't technically get it "from me" (if that makes sense).

Speaking from that experience I think the best way to deal with ragequitting is to make the "wasted time" as big as possible. Ragequitting was quick and easy because I could quickly enter the next match, win, and soothe my hurt feelings. But if back then, when every time I quit I'd have to wait 10 minutes to get into the next match, I'm pretty sure I would either very quickly have stopped quitting or stopped playing the game altogether, because I had nothing in those 10 minutes to take my rage out on.

In short, I think wasting the ragequitter's time and imposing long temp bans would be the best solution.
