If genuinely curious to read about ALT+F4 dodging, why it happens, ideas for getting rid of the issue, and other related discussions, here are some threads to possibly read through.
I can’t say if your topic relates enough to those other topics to warrant merging, or is worded in such a way that remaining independent makes sense, I’m just sharing some discussions you maybe didn’t know were on the forum already. The forum search might find even more.
Hello,
ever since the favorite map option was introduced to the matchmaking there has been a huge increase in the behavior of people just going alt f4 when they get a map that is not their favorite because it seems that they now expect to only play the favorite map.
as a player who like a variety of maps i sometimes have to ban arabia not not play arabia every single game. and that leads to people just going alt f4 when they dont like the map we got matched on. so i have to restart my queue an…
Do you think there should be unlimited map bans for the ranked pool? Say for example, a guy who only wants to play Arabia and literally nothing else. Same case for guys who only want to play black forest. That might stop people from quitting the game if they join a map they don’t like.
Any person that comes around can queue into a multiplayer game and go completely anonymous and everybody is forced to play with them. So if people just resign when they are in a bad spot in a team game or they grief their allies or just behave like a dickhead there is no way of dodgingthem. People dont have to fear any consequences and more and more are abusing that.
Its getting worse in my opinion and i am already in a confortable spot where my team rating is decently high so i dont even have …
As per a suggestion i am splitting up between two polls. Do you experience alt-f4 at your elo on 1v1 ranked?
poll
What counts as experienced Alt-f4? You have personally had it happen to you and consider it a problem. If you look at the forum this seems like an epidemic. In 1v1 im at 800 elo and never noticed. I like stats and was wondering if it is elo specific. Like you get high enough and people just dont want to lose elo on a game because of the map they are in. If you are an f4er let us kno…
Is there ever going to be a system set in place for people who alt-F4 after getting a map they don’t like.
Personally, I think players should lose ELO for quitting in the lobby/load screen just as they would have if they quit after the game started. Why should teams who are willing to play any unbanned map suffer through multiple queues due to someone else’s selfishness, while the person who alt-F4 gets away with no repercussions?
This problem has gotten much worse over the last several months…

All of those that play MP know that this days it takes quite a while to play any team game, the reason is usually quite simple, many peoples only want to play 1 map, or at least they don’t want to play most of the maps (most of them forced through the map rotation even though the majority of players don’t like them). What do this players do? alt+f4 every time the map is set is not the one they want.
It has been discused on AoEZone allready, and the easiest solution is simply to allow for infini…
