      Also i for example just learned from some stream, that you can offer a draw to the opposing team, which could also be a nice loading screen hint.

        Hard to believe that after all these years people don't know how to correctly leave a game in progress, forcing many other people to sit looking at a disconnection screen for a long period. Sigh.
        Could we put a note in the loading screen (along with the tips that are already there) explaining the correct way to leave a game and warn possibly that repeated bad disconnects may result in a moderator taking action?
        Just a thought.

        Just to be clear all the methods of leaving the game use the exact same code to quit as posted here by Uveso https://forum.faforever.com/topic/2893/if-people-ragequit-alt-f4-do-we-get-the-1-30-menu/11

        So there is no more right or wrong way to quit as long as they do it through the game. Most likely it is just genuine connection issues as they are leaving where for some reason not all players got their quit signal.

            @scout_more_often no idea๐Ÿ˜… . I just saw it in 4v4 ladder, but i'd guess it works in all (rated) team games?

              No, you can always offer a draw

                  The draw thing used to only show up in ladder back when we only had 1v1. Maybe it shows up for all auto matches.

                      Draws are in all matchmaking games, thought the rationale was because these games are always rated. Custom games you can just leave.
