In the newest patch, custom games have been destroyed. In the past we already had an issue with Inactivity, and we were screaming for a way to have inactivity an option to be removed in custom games so we didn’t have to worry. But now Inactivity is beyond broken. It has now ruined many beloved game modes for the community that the players have created themselves. Floor is Lava, Hide and seek, and the biggest one is I see you move you die.
The issue starts out with the seekers, the ones that have the most health and are generally faster. They are hunting down the other team within the rules of each game, following the guidelines for each custom game mode. An honor system set in place by the host, to be followed or usually be booted. Before the patch, usually if the seekers take damage the inactivity goes away and the seekers can keep playing. But now, even if the seekers take damage they have to jump. The inactivity only goes away when you DO damage, and in those game modes, the non seekers normally have the lowest health possible and highest damage intake. So it makes it broken and no longer playable.
A simple fix for this is a wider option for inactivity, give the host ability to disable inactivity in his or her game. Or just put it back to the way it was before the patch.

It’s completely broken right now. Yesterday I played some Widow HS only games, and in a few of those I happened to get placed with really high ranked players. I got kicked for inactivity once even though I tried my best and did get some kills every now and then, I just couldn’t keep up the pace for the whole game (it was a race to 50 elims so it was a long game) and got instakilled a few too many times in a row. Then bam, kicked.
The Arcade Deathmatch modes are filled with Brigittes and borderline unplayable sometimes because of them, and now this too… it really feels bad.
