8 Hour Suspension in Comp for Network Error

[koreysux-1553]

Was in the middle of a competitive game as DPS on PS4 and started rubber banding very badly. All of a sudden, got kicked from the game and got put on an 8 hour suspension. I’ve never left a competitive game early before (legit ever, I think it’s so dick if you do) and have never experienced a disconnect like this before. Am a bit upset about the penalty for what was an external fault.

As a note, was unable to rejoin. But internet is still working fine and was able to immediately queue up a QuickPlay game. The prompt of “Game Found!” appeared at the top of the screen but I was never placed back into my original game.

If you want to troubleshoot a connection issue, we can do that here. If you have feedback on how penalties are applied, I recommend reading this pinned thread first:

Overwatch Technical Issues, SR Loss, and Leaver Penalties

Hey everybody, I wanted to take some time today to discuss Leaver Penalties and how they relate to Technical issues. We understand that leaver penalties are an annoying thing to experience. Technical issues can be complicated to troubleshoot. To add penalties to your account can seem like adding insult to injury. This isn’t our intent. The competitive penalty system may not be perfect, but there is reason behind it. When we created the leaver penalty system, we took in a lot of player feedbac…

… and then post your feedback in #competitive-discussion.

Thank you for the prompt response I’m assuming it was a one-off issue and will play QuickPlay until the suspension is lifted.
