This only serves to prevent people from playing unpopular Custom Games. I’m addicted to marine arena.
There is already a feature that automatically alt-tabs back into Starcraft 2 when the game starts, which is great. This feature removes the problem of forgetting you are in a game lobby while starcraft 2 is minimized.
So, can we please be allowed to play TF2 while we’re waiting? If I’m in a TF2 game, its great that Starcraft 2 auto alt tabs open when the game starts while im playing TF2.
The only problem is, I have to alt tab back into starcraft 2 every 4 minutes if I don’t want to get booted from lobby.
Can I get a hell yea?

I totally agree with you, this feature must be deleted. In maps like Mafia it’s annoying.
I am glad when people get booted. There is nothing more annoying then waiting forever for your game to start and then find out people are AFK ruining the game. We all have to wait so why should the ones wanting to play be punished for the ones with short attention spans that can’t wait and load into a game to then immediately go off to do something else and come back when it is convenient for them.

i think the time limit is unreasonable. I can be reading something and look up and see i’ve been booted. i suggest extending it, giving a warning and even having a countdown timer.
I think that it’s very dumb as i cannot even just afk until that the game starts as i pay atention to when it does start.
This topic opened in 2019… its July of 2022 and this hinderance still has not been addressed… =\ c’mon…
I’m guessing this is a no from blizzard?
I have 4 screens. SC2 isn’t even minimized. It’s on in the literal middle of my monitors. I’m not afk, I’m right here… and keep getting booted. Having to alt+tab back in is very disruptive to other things I am doing, just like others have experienced.
Maybe you should stop playing custom games in Starcraft 2 when you should be working.
