The Remake System is Basically Useless

In the game, when you type '/remake' it says "A remake can only be voted for in round 2 if a player on your team is disconnected or AFK. 5 person premade parties cannot use remake."

This statement is either untrue or misleading. For a remake to actually be voted a player must have "abandoned the match" which only happens when a player is AFK for a full round. If anyone moves at all round 1 and then "disconnects" in round 1 they will still be spawned in round 2 with the disconnect symbol by thier ping. Based on the wording before this should qualify for a remake but in reality, it does not.

This makes it an incredibly niche scenario when remake is actually viable. It requires a person to either load in and never move or exit the game officially and abandon the match. It does not stop people ALT+F4ing out of the game or turning their computer off or losing internet.

I understand the system was made this way so it is impossible to abuse but when it also doesn't help in most of the cases it should the system is basically useless. Extending the remake vote to even round 3 when a person has abandoned the match could be tremendous in helping people who leave the game in the first few rounds.

Thank you for coming to my TED talk.
