Overwatch 2 introduces harsher punishments for players who leave mid-match
Blizzard is taking mid-match leaves on Overwatch 2 more seriously and is implementing harsher punishments when Season 10 arrives. People playing Unranked games won’t be able to join a queue for five minutes after leaving two of their last 20 games. And if they leave at least 10 out of the last 20, they’ll be suspended for 48 hours. Players probably want to be even more careful when it comes to leaving Competitive games, though, because doing so 10 times out of 20 will get them banned for the rest of the season. In its announcement, Blizzard said that while it’s aware not everyone abandons a game on purpose, these changes “should help curb those players who deliberately choose to leave a match.”
The developer is also making it easier for groups of friends to play together in Competitive mode, no matter their rank, by introducing “wide groups.” A wide group is defined by having players from a wide range of ranks, from Diamond to tiers up to five Skill Divisions lower. Blizzard admits that opting for the new queue option will mean longer wait times, since it has to pair a wide group with another wide group with similar ranks in order to be fair. But it’s hoping that the new feature will eliminate the need to use an alt account when playing with friends.
The company is also adding new features designed to help prevent abuse and harassment in-game. People will soon be able to add up to 10 players in their “Avoid as Teammate” list instead of just three. It’s also making it easy to report disruptive behavior by updating its reporting interface. Finally, Blizzard is blocking a player’s access to text or voice chat in their matches if they were found to have engaged in abusive behavior and have broken the company’s code of conduct. They can only get those privileges back if they spend time playing Overwatch 2 in their best behavior.
