When Overwatch was developing it seemed to be a good idea to make players listen to Athena’s “Victory/Defeat” pharse, watch winning team victory poses, PoTG, let players type “gg wp” to each other.
But now it’s at least boring, at most annoying and irritating. I heard and watched that billions times. Now when the match will end soon, i have to press ESC and start to spam “leave” button. If match continues (someone contesting 100% lost game) - i have to return to match, press ESC again to reset 5 second counter and spam again. If i get lucky enough - audio cuts and i dont hear the “defeat” pharse, which eases my anger a bit.
But even after that i have to skip screens with Ranked progression, Hero progression (i never was interested in that feature, never checked it out and it and i have to skip that manually EVERY time). I dont want to see these windows at all.
Btw im typing this message waiting for 15 minutes ban i got cause left the ranked match 1 second early.
I want to have an option “instant leave”, if enabled:
- You leave match immediately after end
- You don’t hear the victory/defeat phrase
- You don’t see the match chat messages during last 10 seconds
- You skip ranked progression window
- You skip hero progression window
- You get same role selection window opened (qp/ranked/etc) as before the game to start new search ASAP
Probably items should be configurable (on/off), someone might want to leave some enabled.
Insta-Leave option should be activated during the match with configurable hot key. Sometimes i want to enable it, sometimes not.
Or maybe give us, Blizzard, ability to write UI mods like World of Warcraft. On LUA or Python or whatever language. I’ll develop such addon and make it public for free.
