Suspensions should count towards the whole game

When someone gets suspended from competitve for any reason, the suspension should be applied to all aspects of the game, not just competitive matches. It’s not much of an effective way to stop people from quitting early or throwing in competitive if they can just go play QP or Arcade or something for 15 min until the competitive suspension wears off.

If they are going to be suspended, then they should be just that. No competitve matches, no Qp, No arcade. Nothing. No Overwatch until the suspension is served.

Game suspension as a whole is much more threatening and upsetting than just getting “away” from 1 game mode for a few minutes

yeah but if they get suspended the game is Locked dude

they can’t launch at all

if it’s a legit suspention

I think you’re talking to the 10 minute leaver suspention

and yeah that is usually only applied in disconnects

it’s completely fair for someone who accidentally dc’s to be able to wait out the time in qp or arcade

get over yourself

I’m not sure if I agree with this. There are a few times where my router would reset (possibly due to a firmware update) and I’d be bumped out of a comp match. I’ll try to return ASAP, but sometimes I can’t make it back in time.

I know leavers are very detrimental to comp games, but innocent players who experience crashes or disconnects outside of their power are getting punished as well. I haven’t gotten anything more than a 10 minute comp ban, so from what I can see, the system doesn’t punish the people who unintentionally leave, but it seems like it harshly punishes those who frequently leave comp matches deliberately, due to the escalating penalties I’ve heard about.
