Be careful, im not sure yet how fast you get season ban now. xD
But i’m pretty sure we will see very soon many people who screams “my internet is 10000000 mb/s its all your servers fault, unban my season”. Especially from people from silver and bronze ranks where they like to lose and leave like its QP.
Easy to make fun of other players when you are not getting kicked from competitive games. In south america server you get the “lost connection to server” screen and then it takes up to 3 min to actually rejoin the match. Servers are so bad and blizzard don’t care since we had 3 servers and now the closed 2 so everyone has to play at Sao Pablo server (some citites have more than 100 ms latency)
Maybe someday you realize that between you and blizz servers can be found dozens of other internet services that might be faulty and not related to blizz anyhow. Second step you find out what is vpn or wtfast, then what is good gaming pc(and also better ISP) Maybe then you stop blaming end point where everything is alright.
When blizz servers is dead, every single player can easily notice this.
I knew there was going to be changes to penalties for leaving games (as confirmed by Scott Mercer in the Reddit AMA). I will try to see if those changes are live and if there is anything else that we are allowed to know.
Update: It is confirmed there are intentional increases to suspensions per the patch notes. There are no exact details (which is a good thing) to how easy it is now to trigger a season ban. I am presuming the three season bans triggers a permanent ban is still in place.
I’m researching it as well, on an alt account, so I am at the 8hr mark as well. I’d assume the next is either 24hr or season. I’ll post back at 2am USET with the result.
nothing compared to valorant, if you leave like 5 games you are permanently stuck with a 1 hour ban every time you leave or go afk, if you keep it up you are stuck with a 4 hour ban every time you leave or go afk
includes casual games as well, and im pretty sure like I said it’s permanent
the most leaver penalty that matters is the first one and i don’t see how it would discourage people from leaving more than before but making it a 75 SR loss would be too extreme aswell , i guess the solution is pretty tough to balance for those who actually leave and those who get unfortunate disconnects
the most important info is about how many games you should play to make the penalty stage to be lifted, before it was 12-14 games, long ago 10 games. Now what? xD
I’m not totally sure but I can check that too, as you can tell from the previous post I was thinking about it. I know for a fact that it’s not 5 games. I’ll play 15 games sometime soon and find out (both my alts are on 1hr+ suspensions due to testing).
