Guild Wars 2

Why the hell I can’t just leave the match immediately when it ends ?

It is so frustrating when the match is not worth of any kind of reviews especially when you were just having a bad game (like “the score gose to 500:100 or even worse” or “someone in your team is so annoying that you don’t want to spend even 1 extra second with him”etc.)

I can understand the purpose of Anet adding this timer into the game. It indeed give player time for forming up an potential group when match ends.

But….but…..why? Why Anet doing it in this way !

Overwatch and some other game have a similar function where you can have a seperated page called “recent players” that allows you to check ppl you have been play with and message them or inspect their gaming details which is way way much better.

I love pvp and I can even accept those amulet cuts, but this timer is ruining my pvp experience in EVERY single match no matter it is ranked or unranked and I believe I’m not the only one.

Please Anet, fix it ASAP !

That question at the end?

Why the hell is the option for “no” always grayed out? I don’t want to join them.

Second this… having to sit there and wait for to leave with a greyed out leave button and “no” button when you had a bad team is stupid and frustrating. If people don’t want to party let them leave the second the match is over.

Agreed.

The “No” button needs to be activated, and clicking it should quit you right out of the match. Waiting 10s or whatever it is before exiting is annoying

do you all realize you can click the “yes” button and then immediately click the “no” button and then exit the match ?

yeah but its just the point. The new team name with the team icon is lame as well as the join team party thing. I dont know why GW1 players had a issue with this but many times during the season people would see me in a match and whisper me if we wanted to party.

That was simple and yet Anet implemented a silly join party for PvP matches.

Doesn’t always work. Most of the time doesn’t work for me tbh.

you sure?

it works for me always.

100% sure it doesn’t work for me, I played 20 unranked yesterday 0 games worked.

I even had a game where you were supposed to be on my team but didn’t join so 4v5 :< lol

ouch! you caught me rage quitting before the match started ! XD
sorry about that ya.

that was last night right ? around 11pm gmt+8:00 my time zone.

well, i wanted to play the pirate map only, well, for achievements, i did not want to spend 10 minutes playing other maps in unranked, i did not want to afk in the map so i logged out instead.

i thought i could log in other characters to play some pve but noooooo the new queue from anywhere feature dragged all my other characters back straight into the pvp match.

i had to do other things before i could go back to serve my remaining dishonor time of about 8 minutes.

Yeah same. I understand the rage quit, I did that after the game without you since I got 4v5 3 times and then legacy when I needed capri.

But yeah back on topic that join party stuff don’t work for me, i can’t leave and a few others can’t too but some can idk. Might just go char select for now.

Well… behind your dishonor stack, you have active (that decay fast) and none active dishonor that can stack a lot.

Do that many times in a night, you are sure to get stuck in MMR hell for some weeks or even months.

Your choice.

switching to a different character would always bring you back to the match, this is nothing new, how else do you think people switched classes at the start of games?

YES!

hate the team name randomness and hate hate hate the grayed out no!

Please fix ASAP!

not really. previously, we need to be in the pvp lobby in order to get back into the game.

previously, i can do pve stuff if i wish to desert the match.

now i can’t.

Your choice.

it is unranked, not ranked.
unranked MMR and ranked MMR are different.

as long as i do it in moderation it is fine.

for ranked, my record was

some wins, some loses, some wins, some loses, etc
11 wins in a row
3 desertions in a row (since i was at 20/25 sapphire)
9 wins in a row
retire from season 3 since i had enough

seems like the 3 desertions in a row did not affect my MMR that much as i was able to get 9 wins in a row after that.

you could never do this for as long as i have been pvping in GW2.

it alwways loaded you back into the match, the only difference is that it would load HotM first but whilst now it loads you directly into the match (which is faster)

either way you had to re-join the match afaik, unless there was some exploit that people were using to not get pulled back into the game

That has never worked for me either.

Im on my mobile and something went wrong last post.

Anyway i want to say that no , i dont realize because it doesnt work for the rest of us.
But maybe u can post a video explaining us how to do?
Obvious we not doing it right.

mean its nice to make parties and all but i no like i got wait to leave a match cause thing ask if i want to make a party.

Just go to your guild hall!

Boom!

You’re welcome.

P.S. Doesn’t work if you’re in combat

Was just going to post this. Pointless really, if i dont wanna team up i want to leave. 16 Seconds might not seem that long but whatever.

I have saw ppl try to skip this timer by go back to character selection screen or as this post suggest that : https://forum-en.gw2archive.eu/forum/game/pvp/Skip-the-after-match-wait/first#post6268738

just go to your guild hall <3

We shouldn’t have to do some work around to leave a pvp match as soon as it’s over if we want to… if players want to stick around to form a party great. If we lose and I want to dip the second the match is over, it’s incredibly stupid and frustrating to force players to sit around and wait for a timer to run out.

Anet actively attempting to kill off whats left of sPvP confirmed.

On a more serious note ANet this is just adding insult to injury, by forcing players to sit around and wait after then match is over more so after getting stomped for what ever reasons during the match. ANet you might as well be taking a sword and perform the Death by a Thousand Cuts execution, to what’s left of your sPvP player base.

And people wonder why I now out right completely HATE with a PASSION to play sPvP in this game. LOL

Same.

I using the last of my old wvwvw reward chest which were timer based boost. Since they only last for 10 minutes, it is vital for me to leave asap to get into a new match!

I don’t get why I can’t just click “No” and get it over with!

Remove it please.

Remove please.

Yes pls remove!!!

If we can vote Yes to form a party no good reason we can’t vote No to leave the match. Please fix it.

I like how people are complaining how they have to wait an extra 15 seconds to leave a match…when most of the time people are forced to wait an extra 60 seconds for that last 1-4 people to ready up at the match’s start (who never do).

Because that extra 15s is easily fixed by a simple code change. The extra 1min during ready up is not.

Ouch he really hates it. But yes if you want that thing to pop up it should just boot us all to spectate or something its kinda annoying. But this is really a small issue. I would rather address the landscapes on the new map that all my leaps are failing on. (Mesmer pet peeve) Also how certain bumps of land obstruct projectiles. Furthermore improve the tracking of rev. skill 5. (A quality of rev. life issue).

All it needs is one simple change: If a player clicks “No”, they exit the match immediately.

I love the fact I can queue up for PvP while leveling out in Tyria, and the ability to decide to team up with a good pvp team you met in a previous match is neat, too. However, prior to this update we had the ability to leave a match as soon as it was over. I do not understand the point in making us wait to leave a match once it is finished. When a match is over, I am ready to leave and get back to leveling or queue up for another. I know the wait time is only about half a minute, but those 20 or 30 seconds can feel like forever when you want to re-queue fast.

I agree. I want to leave as soon as the match is over so I can do other things. I don’t like to sit awkwardly in silence for ten or so seconds with the players.

Is there a reason why Anet implemented this?

Evan Lesh.3295:

The delay is there so players who accept the party don’t leave the match early and and get back to the lobby before the party is actually created. Otherwise they’d be able to queue and then get kicked out, and it’s just all sorts of weird user experiences.

However if someone doesn’t intend on joining the party anyways, there is no harm in letting them leave early other than maybe slightly less usage of the feature.

Features exist to serve the players. Surely you can design this one in a way that allows the option for party formation without putting shackles on what the majority of players want to do (which is to leave immediately). It’s a terrible user experience at the moment.

Please allow one-click immediate exit for those players who have no interest in forming a party. The key word is immediate, because there is plenty of waiting around in the game already.

I dont like that timer. If players want to team up they can do it themselves. No need to force them

This.

That’s exactly what I was thinking.

Zaxares.5419:

Basically this. Why do we have a button that doesn’t even work?

The weird user experience is putting up the party creator in PvP. It’s not needed and it’s not something we want as end users.

It’s basically their plan to create more teams for esports. It’s annoying.

I’m fine with the feature being there, as long as we have the option to click no. Currently it’s just frustrating. As a previous poster stated, click no, leave the match, simple fix.

Zaxares.5419:

Yes, this is a UI/UX issue.

No it wasn’t. What was requested by a very small portion of people was forced teaming in order to pvp.

Theres nothing wrong with the idea. The ability to create a team with pugs is fine..I used to have to whisper team mates if they wanted to join but you def want to have the ability to immediately click no if you dont want to and then exit the match. if im in a Duo team and dont want to join up i should be allowed to just quit the match.
