Seeing this mentioned by multiple people on the internet. Didn't want to make another Street Fighter V thread but I thought this was pretty noteworthy seeing as the game is pretty much online only until the March update.

For everyone who is interested - so far I couldn't see any punishment for disconnecting the game in the middle of the fight. I did it three times in a row - I always keep my full Fight Money, don't lose LP points, don't get temporarily blocked from online play, even the consecutive wins remains the same (can be seen once the fight is loading).
Given that I ran into some weird match making (fighting guys who had 4-times as much LP than me + a much higher level) I'm assuming that there will be a lot of D/C problems once the game starts.

So there's no penalty/reward for anyone in that situation? It's as if the match never happened?

Warxard · Feb 14, 2016

That's dumb, it should count as a loss

Lactose_Intolerant · Feb 14, 2016

I'm sure it won't be abused.

That's what I'm hearing, yes.

-tetsuo- · Feb 14, 2016

Well ranked play is gonna be great until they fix this.

E_Darkness · Feb 14, 2016

This is before launch. Might be added in on launch.

Netcode might not hold up on launch. So they might test the waters so people don't end up getting a bunch of loses in case the servers just fail.

The game isn't out yet so woo.

ShaperofStories · Feb 14, 2016

The game still isn't technically out yet. Here's hoping that this is one of the things to get switched on when they reset the servers on Tuesday.

Vital Tundra · Feb 14, 2016

Isn't there a way to tell if someone purposely disconnects?

They could at least impose temp bans on repeat offenders within a time span.

pizzacat · Feb 14, 2016

Do you think the W anyway? I'm sure they can just put in bans for quitting too much

Creaking · Feb 14, 2016

Say goodbye to finishing matches.

BBboy20 · Feb 14, 2016

Is this kind of problem ever going to be solved?

Kinsei · Feb 14, 2016

Oh yay, now we'll have a ton of assholes quitting as they are losing causing they want to keep their W/L ratio up. Hopefully they can patch losses in.

Xav · Feb 14, 2016

If only there was a beta to iron out the issues beforehand.

Korezo · Feb 14, 2016

Get those win streak trophies.

Probably. Either it'll be at launch or Capcom will do so a bit afterward. Elsewise it's easily abuseable.

Haunted · Feb 14, 2016

Weird decision. This isn't Capcom's first online rodeo, seems like an oversight they'll fix soon.

Review copies and promos are out, release is next tuesday!

it's the final version. Unless they patch it in later like storymode.

lucebuce12 · Feb 14, 2016

Can I be the first one to point out that the game has not been released yet?

Maybe this is a server-side issue, that might be fixed by release?

EDIT:

Woo hoo, second one to point it out.

Eolz · Feb 14, 2016

Not a good design choice.

farisr · Feb 14, 2016

Thankfully 3 wins in a row isn't that hard so there shouldn't be too many losers disconnecting just to get that trophy.

As for those players who care way too much about that win/loss ratio. Sigh...

xDUMPWEEDx · Feb 14, 2016

Well looks like I will be forever undefeated in SFV. EVO here I come!

They've been tinkering with the backend for a while, and said they'll wipe all the FM before the actual release.

ElTopo · Feb 14, 2016

LTG will like this.

Seriously; I hope they patch this shit.

people were rage quiting in the beta. trophies wont matter.

This has to be a bug. Theres no way capcpom missed this.

Is there a win streak trophy? I never had problem with those at day 1. Lot of new people.

Guymelef · Feb 14, 2016

Beta was like this so I don't count on Capcom patching it.

FluxWaveZ · Feb 14, 2016

This is what actually might make me cancel my pre-order.

It's fucking ridiculous. Super Smash Bros. 4 even has a punishment. StarCraft II just gives the other player the win. Your online will never be taken seriously if I can just rage quit with zero consequence.

GootecksShimmy · Feb 14, 2016

Going to abuse this.

Jk. Cacpom strikes again.

Server is getting reset on Tuesday. So there is still time. Seeing as Capcom can wipe Fight Money and progress on a whim, so yeah.

Yes. The SFV one is three wins in a row.

It's an easy one, 3 wins in row.

Nobody cares about rankings in a beta though. Or most people don't at least

The_Dama · Feb 14, 2016

how was it in sf4?

ViviOggi · Feb 14, 2016

Matchmaking will be an utter mess until this is fixed.

Kouriozan · Feb 14, 2016

Looks like online will be a nightmare, people are abusing stuff like that in a little PS4 Yu-Gi-Oh! game, so imagine how it'll be in a bigger game...

smurfx · Feb 14, 2016

i thought the punishment would be to always match you up with a bunch of rage quitters if you quit too many times?

Korezo · Feb 14, 2016

The_Dama said:

You lost points, even if the connection failed by the server and it wasn't your fault. But in og sf4 you lost nothing if tou quit.

Easy then.

ViviOggi · Feb 14, 2016

You lost a bunch of points.

Any sensible game nowadays lowers your ranking and/or bans you from matchmaking for a period of time. Some put you in specific leaver pools after multiple offenses.

HStallion · Feb 14, 2016

Couldn't Capcom do something like cheaters only leagues and such? Get flagged or caught too many times and you are forced to only play other sore losers etc.

Acerac · Feb 14, 2016

Well that just murdered my hype for the game.

Why would they choose this?

ponpo · Feb 14, 2016

this is LOW........

morpix · Feb 14, 2016

Hah, last second rage-quits incoming.

Mikey Jr. · Feb 14, 2016

You should be allowed 1 disconnect a day or something like that.

direct_quote · Feb 14, 2016

edit; nvm

cackhyena · Feb 14, 2016

Spman2099 · Feb 14, 2016

Man, I think a lot of people are being a bit silly about a lot of the "bad news" for this game. However, this is legitimately bad. Looks like Capcom was really not ready to release this game yet.

Firehead · Feb 14, 2016

Uh... The fuck are they thinking?

Disconnecting from a ranked match in Street Fighter V does NOT count as a loss.
