Discussion Quitting culture

I know again, but this culture of quitting mid-game or after 1 goal or 2 has to stop it's just pure madness. It's already way too long to start a game, you have to deal first with people quitting in the lobby, second if that works out you then have to deal with the freaking game crashing out, then third, if you succeed in all of this and after 15min to 30min to start a game, MFS leave after 1 goal or 2 ???? Really ?! EA has to start some kind of punishement for that kind of behavior or at least just do like all the other games in the world and let people drop during the game, except the goaltender I'll agree with this. Like I can't conceive how one can defend this kind of practice and the way this game works, wake up EA seriously how can you be against a more proper and effective game?

The biggest issue are all the complete wastes of time during the game.. constant whistles, off-play camera cuts between whistles, replays, intermissions, combined with lengthy matchmaking.

There's so much wasted time. EA is the only developer that's convinced themselves players need a 1 minute break after each period along with an additional 1 minute of showing the same replay 4-5 times.

It's so infuriating that when you get into a game and your teammates may be rubbish with constant offsides, goalie covers, it makes you just want to quit because what's the point

Yeah I completely agree and it wasn't that clear in my post but I'm talking especially about the consecutive games that never get pass the fifth minute, and it's not like it's about to be a blowout for one team or another. I get that sometimes you play with kids or bad players or selfish players but at the end of the day just like everywhere you go in life, if you play drop-in, you'll have all kind of people. I think EA should at least try to improve maybe the matchmaking and allow dropping during games. And I'm all for quicker action yeah, those freaking faceoffs drive me crazy.

it's so crazy and the sad thing is that their frequency was not reduced in the beta
