Didn't help any that people on both sides abandoned.

So quit if it's safe to leave? The quit screen tells you what will happen if you quit. If someone abandons and your playing ranked and you know your team will lose just quit. I don't get why in some games you will have 3 left on your team and then people say "FF, just end"... just quit. You get nothing for staying in the game and you get nothing for leaving the game.

I would like to see some sort of reputation system. If Valve forced you to rate team members and then did all the stats to see if one sour player was rating good rep players bad then you can work out a rating system on rep. Then you wouldn't be paired with people who don't enjoy playing.

Or... doesn't CS:GO have a community moderated system. You watch replays and then rate if the player was cheating/throwing the game? That would be cool to see. Oh someone is feeding the courier, stealing item etc. say 75% of the people that watched the reply reported that this was the case from this player then player action is taken.

As I said, it was a training match anyway, so wouldn't have mattered if I was the first to go. I just dislike quitting.
 
Yeah me too. Just I would rather not waste time and just go straight to the next match. I think I only have 2 abandons in 1000 games and both are from internet cutting out haha.
 
Doesn't the whole team, including you, have to call it?

One person calls it then it starts a countdown and anyone on the team can cancel it.

Its still not worth adding, people will just say gg then if people don't accept you'll get the afk or gg, call gg or I feed, etc.

But if people are gonna be a **** then surely that'll happen with or without the gg mechanic?

For me it's just about not wasting everyone's time but nit making anyone have to abandon.

Maybe they could add a restriction that it's not available until you've lost a tier 3 tower or something?
 
Still not worth it. Games not over when you've lost a tier 3 tower, you can always come back, there are some games where you wish you could surrender but thats not every game.

Go play league of legends, 1 in 3 games for me is people saying "omg surrender at 20" when you are a few kills down. Its incredibly frustrating.

I'm not saying you have to GG when a 3rd tier tower goes, but just have the option. It doesn't have to be used.

If you've lost 7 towers and the enemy hasn't lost 1 and they all have about 10 levels on most of your team, I don't see many teams coming back from that. I'll admit that's probably a very rare situation to be in though.

Partly so that you don't get those teams that have clearly won but rather than finishing decide to destroy all the other building first and get as many kills as possible even killing people in the spawn bit.

Sure but because its there people will just give up. If you are playing in that situation and you have no option but to keep playing people will try to win, but if you have the option to surrender people will just whine and afk in base telling you to surrender.

I see why you want one but having played like 500 games of league, people want to give up all the time when you're only a tiny bit behind and it'll probably be the same in dota.

This....

I've never seen the 'epic comeback' in my time playing league cause everyone surrenders :(
 
Still I see a lot of people just sitting in their base saying "Just finish it" or something like that.

Or just walking out and getting mullered. I've not seen anyone come back from those situations.

How about just having an option where you don't respawn automatically but have to have a button to respawn? Wouldn't change much, but would mean you didn't have to sit in the spawn point getting killed repeatedly because the other team decided they didn't want to kill the ancient yet (even though all towers were down). You wouldn't stop them taking as long as they like but it would mean you could go afk while they do it.
 
Not to be rude, that sounds really stupid. Easiest way would be to just add some sort of entrance to the back of the fountain to enter the actual fountain where the turret thing is. But even then fountain camping isn't a problem, just tab out for a bit if the game is lost to the point where you are repeatedly dying in fountain.

Why would having a button to respawn mean you could go afk? Can do it anyway, just tab out and let them kill away.

I can count on the number of World Cup finals goals I've scored the amount of times I've seen a random pub game come back from that.

Most just sit in the base crying and10-20 mins of my life are wasted. Teams can bring it back but random pubs cannot.
