In the last 2 days, I've had 3 lockouts:
1.) Playing GSF was kicked for not contributing even though I probably had the highest damage in the match. There was at the most 1 minute or so of not shooting anyone prior to the kick because it was one of those dumb wide open gunship standoff maps where everyone is hesitant to cross no-man's land and get slaughtered but that should not have been long enough to trigger an afk kick.
2.) Playing GSF, got killed but button to respawn did not show up. I tried resetting the UI with ctrl-U and it did not help.
3.) Lag spike during voidstar kicked me out. This has happened to me a number of times over the past weeks. (I use ethernet and a great router. My ISP is having problems in my area so there are intermittent issues).
There are a lot of players that should be kicked from matches and there isn't a perfect way to address this but I think a big improvement would be:
1.) If someone gets disconnected from the game (as opposed to clicking LEAVE) and then logs back in within 1 minute, put them back in the match/warzone they were in
2.) If the devs are not technically competent enough to figure out how to make (1) possible, then give one free "leave" per day before the 20 minute lockout kicks in
In all content I play, I always contribute and never leave no matter how many chimps or freeloaders are on my team, and I'm sick of getting this lockout when technical problems force me out.
