People that actually want to get through a match without teammates abandoning and forcing the remaining players to fight losing battles every teamfight until the MM gives them a new 6th player.
That sounds like a you issue. If you’re paying for a sub-par service then it’s on you to complain to the people that provide you with your sub-par service to get it sorted…
Evidently not you… But some of us do care.
No the “point” of the mode is to have fun. it aint fun 5v6 / 4v5 every teamfight.
Heres an idea … Pick up your phone and contact the other idiots that are in charge of your internet connection and get them to sort their < BEEP > out.
Absolutely - but if someone is motivated to lose fast and not get banned. Doing damage can make fun out of a bad situation - go Reddit Lucio, play Ball and swing about like a crazy person or play whatever DPS you want to learn next.
You still look like you’re engaged while trying to lose and also being undetectable and unpunishable.
I suppose that’s where the “chill, it’s QP” part comes in then. If people aren’t quitting or otherwise not playing, let them be. Report those that aren’t playing, wash your hands of that match, and move on. After all, there are no consequences.
And after the penalities you are forced to play in a match where you are getting stomped.
As an example when you have a terrible doom or ball otp getting demolished left and right.
The guy instead of leaving will just keep sabotaging.
But if he left he would be replaced by somebody who could flip the table and make a difference.
But now you have to deal with throwers AND leavers because people still leave.
Leaver abusers are a thing, when you leave 10 match out of 20 matches you should be punished.
But as of rn leaving 2 matches or 3 in 1-2 hour already gives you huge penalities.
Even when you leave a match you joined to replace a leaver btw.
Blizzard is too harsh with sanctions no matter on what.
Its as if we were all considered as little kids that cant stand to see a bad word or to see somebody mature enough to not stay in a match of qp to get only frustration, even tough a game is meant to relax and have a nice time.
Given that a normal match lasts 8-10 minutes, you could see 6 - 12 matches in 1 or 2 hours. Leaving 2 or 3 matches out of 6 is 33% or 50% of matches quit. Leaving 2 or 3 out of 12 is better but still at around 25%. That’s a lot.
I do wish the penalty would reset after some amount of time. Why punish someone who’s been gone for two months but left 2 games prior to that and then left their technical 3rd game two months later?
Every second match or so, I just troll because the team doesn’t play as a team. No penalties so far.
Don’t be stupid and believe everything Blizzard tells you.
Server logs prove or disprove report validity, so even if a player gets suspended, that suspension can be lifted after human CS review. Furthermore, those who abuse the reporting system via false reporting create a permanent digital trail that can be used to perma-ban them down the road. The risk of perma-ban just is not worth account loss if you have a treasure trove of collectible skins in the account submitting the report.
When you reach out to support, you get an AI answer. You need to re-open the ticket over and over again until you get a human looking at it. And then the chance is high that this human warns you for “abusing” the ticket system. So, no only rarely they lift a suspension.
Abuse of the reporting system is not supervised. I tried it myself and randomly reported people now for over half a year. The only “improvement” they included was, that now you cannot copy&paste test into the report message box. You really have to type now. In my last account data request I had over 2000 reports sent. And 99.9% were false. Nobody cares at Blizzard.
OWC doesn’t have Leaver Penalty and some of the games were leave rejoin fest. I oppose to have leaver penalty lifted. It could only be softened because most players don’t have the balls to finish a game they joined. Get a better internet environment if you’re constantly getting disconnected. Its on you.
Btw inc Marvel Rivals also has Leaver Penalty as default. Good luck
None of what I said is false. Just because a human CS agent does not answer an e-mail right away, that does not mean that they do not exist. Instead of making blanket denials, please stick to the facts.
Server logs document everything that happens on the server end – otherwise we would have no chat logs and no replay codes. Submitting any report does create a CS ticket, even if it is not immediately seen by human CS eyes. Otherwise there would be no info for the human CS agent to review and investigate cases.
While Blizzard CS was still replying in these forums, several users posted that they were wrongly banned and made a lot of posts proclaiming their innocence. Some of these guys received very public responses from Blizzard CS showing exactly what happened that triggered the perma-ban. There are also many here who consider F-bombs and general profanity as socially acceptable, then deny any wrong doing after they get suspended or worse.
I absolutely HATE backfilling into games where my team is about to lose. It’s not fun in the slightest. Especially if I’ve already had to wait a decent length of time to get into that game in the first place.
Okay? That doesn’t mean you should get a free pass for abandoning your team.
Sounds like you need to fix your internet problems before you focus on playing any online shooter, because with a ping as high as yours, even if you don’t DC, you’re a liability as the lag won’t allow you to properly play the game to the point where you can effectively help your team.
