  • Hi, I did experience this too often enough to have a earned a 30 minutes ban now. Sometimes it goes together with a very laggy/jittery game (server issues ?), sometimes just as with you it happens somewhere mid-game ouf of the blue, "gracefully" returning you to the lobby.

    Technically (depending on the underlying architecture) it's not impossible to return someone even to the same session within a certain period of time (IF it is a intermittent network issue) and to distinguish between network issues and a deliberate rage quit - many other online team-based games show this clearly or at least handle this reasonably

    It seems to be a lame excuse to always blame it on the player's network setup and ban players for an increasing amount of time, ultimately resulting in a permanent ban.

  • I agree.

    In the mornings CET it's fine. Played a couple of games this morning. In the evenings I get disco'd and lags that make maneuvering almost impossible quite often and meanwhile my temp ban is now at 30 minutes !! Just a couple of minutes ago I get the in-game message "disconnected from match server" (literally 1 minute into the game when approaching the first generator) - still received bloodpoints (?) and banned for 30 minutes.

    How "enjoyable"
