Ranked Cooldown

(_Liting) #1

Hope this thread will spark some discussion, maybe anybody else has had similar experiences to this.

Just an overview of what happened before being placed on cooldown;
I had just completed a previous game of ranked, in which I searched for and was placed into another. Maybe five or so minutes into this match my ping skyrocketed to 988, which I believe is what it caps at displaying as, and subsequently dropped to the main menu.

This in itself is annoying, but not particularly what I’m here to dispute. The cooldown is for three days, which at the time of posting this will expire on the 21st. To me, this is extremely annoying and inconvenient due to the fact that I had just purchased a week long ranked booster, which I feel I’m getting partially cheated out of.

Incorrect. Credit, hours, boosters run down only ingame. Ranked boosters, days, are hard timeframes.

Were I the OP, I’d contact customer support for a resolution.

Wait, is it 3 days on a first offense for leaving a match? When I was disconnected and couldn’t rejoin, I only got 30 minutes, but then again I was unranked.

3 days just seems stupid though, considering how often this game won’t let you rejoin.

3 Days is the cap of cooldown and it’s either second or third. Believe I ended up abandoning a match about a week ago after two teammates left which I didn’t expect to give me a cooldown and another time I accepted a match and wasn’t placed in the lobby
