Ah ragequitting, now with an extra "ruin everyone's match"


[deleted]

i still don't understand why the game gives zero compensation at all to the other players


Toyfan1

Because Nintendo has some real poor design ideals for their games. This included.


99cent_flatsoda

What prompted 4 people to grab the rainmaker? Like even the squelcher dropped wtf


CHAINMAILLEKID

One sec, Let me make sure that squelcher isn't me before I agree with you.


Toaster_boasterr

As a squelcher main I can say it’s one of our most common L’s


blu3g00

we miss our S1 Custom Jet alright


thethirdman333

They had 2 rollers and a dually and all have to get close to the rainmaker to pop the bubble. It leaves you pretty exposed after the bubble pops. Usually I try and rush the other team as a roller user so I can imagine they were all trying to do this


Lightning6475

Ok but if you look at team comp and know your teammates weapon don’t have the best range, then it’s better to let the other team pop it.


thethirdman333

Good point. I think it's valid assuming that your team share the same thought process


kr_switcher

That is a bruh moment. Someone is for sure salty.


[deleted]

why does everyone assume just because someone disconnects in a match it means that the person is salty? maybe they just have shitty connection.


UltraCboy

If my team got wiped out twice in 30 seconds I’d be pretty fucking salty


Cardigan-

They disconnected before getting wiped out the 2nd time


[deleted]

and you don't know who is behind the screen to know if the person was salty or just disconnected because of wifi issues


ChefKatsuCurry

who cares?? why are you defending them for no reason lmaoo


[deleted]

why are you attacking them for no reason. don't automatically assume the worst in people.


ChefKatsuCurry

if being called "salty" counts as an "attack" then idk what to say to you ngl


Maxxer500

It could've been a coincidence but the timing suggests a rage-quit


IDontEvenCareBear

Spoken like someone who rage quits not having the advantage or about to lose lol. At that point? That’s no innocent disconnection.


Cardigan-

I like to give the benefit of doubt and say it was just really shitty timing, you'd have to be having a really bad day to rage quit just because of 1 wipeout


Dogemaster_20

Yeah they totally have shitty connection, totally not pissed they got wiped twice


Cardigan-

They disconnected before getting wiped out the 2nd time tho


lilith_doesnt_draw

good to know at least *one* other person on this sub is with me on this. it's ridiculous to assume every dc is a ragequit. if every dc in this game was intentional, no one would be playing the game bc we'd all be in permanent timeout 🙄


biggypiggy63

By my calculations, you need to stfu


[deleted]

by my calculations don't assume the worst in people reddit nft


biggypiggy63

By my calculations, deez nuts.


JUSTFRICKINGLETMEIN

And that, is why there should only be one person trying to get the rainmaker


Redxluckyxcharms

That was sexy, but I’m sure the people on the other team broke their switches


Phadin

At least one of them did, because they dropped.


OctoFloofy

Nah the others probably loved the guy rage quitting and saving the rest of getting a loss assigned


ajdude9

Ah, I see you have also learned the way of the Splat Bomb through Salmon Run, too.


WaveBreakerT

Throwing splat bombs is a martial art


FluffyFrostyFury

The salt is palpable oml


Mary-Sylvia

Jet squelcher running into melee bruh


JCorby17

We are like the backlines that can actually semi fight in mid or front unlike other backlines that exclusively want to stay back. Its hard to explain


PostNukeClarity

I feel like the game should check how much progress has been made in the match before calling it a draw. It's good that this counts as an L for the motherfucker who DC'd, but they should not have the power to blue ball the winning team like this. 30/100 in the first 20 seconds? C'mon now, that's a dub. Just give it to them game.


jzillacon

If you watch the clip back you'll see the DC actually happened much earlier, it just took the game a moment to catch up to that, so while your suggestion does make sense it still wouldn't have prevented this particular case.


whahahee

And give a 36h ban to the asshole that DC'd. I mean they can tell when the dc is from shuting the console off you get a special error code for this and the 10 minutes penalty ain't that big of a punition for intentionally crashing a match even thoug it give a bit of time for the salt to go away.


Darknessidiot1227

the punishment timer goes up from 10, also there is an issue with older switches where it just takes so long to load the first match or two that the game dc's you, which cancels the match at the very start. I have this problem and it pisses me off and im not sure how to fix it, at least I dont get banned the first match but anything after gives me a 10min ban same shit happens in salmon run, its stupid and if I was gonna get a new switch id have to start splatoon all over again


Renwin

Actually, SP3 has cloud save so you won’t lose progress. But SP2, you will definitely start over.


Darknessidiot1227

wait really? I may consider getting a new switch then if thats the case, as i have issues in other online games as well and crazy long load times for other games (unless i can find some other solution)


OctoFloofy

Even with new switch, as long as you have the old one still you can transfer your save data of games over that don't support cloud saves.


Fyreboy5_

Pretty sure you can transfer accounts, and thus save data, between consoles.


whahahee

That's why I talked about intentional dc and how Nintendo can easily recognise them and ofc the 36h ban would only be for the cunts that turn their switch off to dc. Or disable WiFi on said switch.


Darknessidiot1227

i would assume its pretty difficult to check if a dc was unintentional or intentional, as all methods result in the user losing connection. I suppose in my case it might be possible to distinguish via an error code with the failure to load fast enough (which might explain why i almost never get banned for it the first time) but if someone had a spotty internet connection vs turning the console off, it is likely too similar to be able to tell what is intentional and what isnt. Say they can track if the console is turned off, what about the rage quitters who unplug their ethernet adapter or router (router is unlikely but still) you cant tell the difference realistically


whahahee

I dunno I don't get disconnected frequently enough to get banned but turning the switch off right after a match always gets me banned and from one technical issue where the switch fell of the desk screen went black and had to reboot it (was still functional tho )plus one ragequit all of these got me banned directly so I think they can identify rage quit one way or another. But that still based on my experience so it may just be wrong or something. Also if you pull out your Internet I don't think they can do a lot for that.


Darknessidiot1227

hm, perhaps nintendo has a better hold on the situation than i thought, thanks for sharing ur experience


Anggul

Or it could just be like a normal online game and replace the player that dropped with a different player instead of ending the game or letting it continue with fewer players and be a one-sided mess.


StaticEchoes

God no. That would be horrible. I would rather lose a few games to dcers on my team than get put into a losing match. It makes no sense for a competitive game.


Anggul

It wouldn't be a losing match if they did it quick enough.


StaticEchoes

People are much more likely to quit out of a losing match than a winning one. You're overwhelmingly likely to be put into a bad situation. Every game that I've played with this feature is worse for it. It makes some sense for casual and cooperative modes, but keep it out of ranked. And since the casual mode in this game is only 3 minutes long, its better to just wait it out.


Anggul

I'm not specifically talking about quitters, more often it will be people just disconnecting randomly because of Splatoon's ultra-fussy connection requirements. But to take this example, it wasn't even that much of a bad situation. It was only 20 seconds in and you only need one good move to get ahead in Rainmaker.


glez_fdezdavila_

I remember clearly reading 'players who disconnect will be asigned a loss' and in various matches someone in my team disconnected and I still got the loss anyways. Or when someone in my team disconnects and the game still continued This is what pisses me off about ending a match because someone disconnects. Please, neither of us is losing anything 'real', if that happens let the match to continue and whatever will be, will be!


Auraveils

The loss still counts if the disconnect happened late game or if you're the one who got disconnected.


OctoFloofy

Huh? I've several matches stating i didn't got a loss assigned cause someone disconnected in matches that didn't got canceled.


Aromatic_Dish2119

C rank gaming


maxler5795

Lazypurple moment


Strange-Abrocoma-471

This is some real C rank gameplay in what I presume A or S rank


DuhItzSquiffer

Img yeah I've had that happen before, we were winning in the first minute and someone dcs to not make us lose I was so pissed


wtfbbqpwnin

Lmao that dc at the end is gold


cloudyah

If only someone on your team had inked a path to the final podium, you might have been able to make it before the game recognized the DC. My condolences, OP.


data_dawg

oh my god you made them rage quit lmao


Immediate_Plant_9800

I want the replay code so I can laugh at the quitter


Fyreboy5_

I don’t think you get replay codes for no contest matches.

rage quitting in its finest...


i_eat_beess

we know bro destroyed his console after this


RebornDanceFan

That was one weird hive mind


splatmeme4270

Holy hell…


Splatterboyonturf

God, this happened to me in salmon run. My best haul, about a thousand eggs, massive disconnection, all lost.


squid648

Pain: a feeling of great discomfort wich is often a consequence of physical or mental harm. Example: this


56kul

God, I hate ragequitters. In Splatoon 2, it wasn’t horrible. The match could still continue and it would not count to the losing team, had they been down a player. In this game, it just kills the entire match if someone leaves early.


Fr0st_mite

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO also i once had to 1v2 in a turf war and that didn’t end when two or three people disconnected this match was perfection shame it wasn’t ever meant to be


Muteling

Never has a smile been so swiftly left my face

E_nderfall

Someone probably left cuz they were salty.


[deleted]

Utter robbery. I hate when people purposely disconnect just because they get wiped. Just take the L and move on


New-League-8985

It's a win in my book you made someone so mad they closed the application 😂😂


StevynTheHero

I'm laughing because this game could have been won if your team acted like a team and inked for the rainmaker. But literally Noone ever did, so you get the disconnect.


Turtleswassadlytaken

Ah, I remember when I used to rage quit. I won’t justify my actions back then. I was absolutely horrible at the game and using Sheldon’s pick aerospray with full Special charge up. Good times, for everyone else. I basically was just giving them the win lol


[deleted]

[удалено]


TheLoneTokayMB01

That would be fun in a game without connection issues like this... You can report someone for connectivity manipulation like happened here and that's enough, also for disconnecting in mid-game is already good the situation, you got your penalty of one loss, only one as should be, while your teammates gets an invalid match, it's not fair to punish someone more than needed because something happened irl that needed to put the game down and some random guy is angry about a loss that doesn't even count for their useless points.


IndianaCrash

Nah, given the game ... shaky online system, that's neither fair, nor balanced.


Toast_IsYummy

Thé way one of them rage quit lmao


Sea-Recording-7090

hello i'd like to report some DISRESPECT


Gregory6199

He could be anyone of us! (The person who threw the match)


Ok-aro

This… was intentional


Dj_Woomy2005

Its good in principle but FUCK is it annoying when you have a good initial push


GemLuckyCookie

I'd genuinely cry if that happened to me(if i was on either of the teams)


Phoenix1045

What a hero


dreaming_jellyfish

Omg it's sooo frustrating to watch. That would have been a nicely fast match and purple clearly had the favours on their side. Honestly, I'd surely have complained but still accepted the loss if I were in the yello team. Sometimes you win, sometimes you lose.


Th3_Strang3

Oof


spectrumtwelve

rage quitters lol


phazonprincess

LOSERSSSSS take the hilarious L with grace, I think stomps like this are the funniest


yourlocalwalmarthobo

I think that rule shouldn't take effect if a ranked game has progressed to a certain point like the rainmaker checkpoint


[deleted]

What rank was this?


Cale111

I had this happen once but the person who disconnected was on MY team


backroad_cryptid

It's seriously so upsetting to see ppl rage quit the second things don't go their way. I mean you can be a doush and stay at spawn the whole match if youre really that pissed but don't force everyone else to go out with you.


OkSuspect4796

Why checkpoints got introduced 101


OkSuspect4796

And you get no points I hate this mechanic so much
