What on earth is going on?
In the last 24 hours I’ve received around 6 instances when trying to enter a competitive game where the “Applying Update” screen does not go away.
I get placed in to the match, and everything starts. I have text-to-speech enabled so I can hear my teammates being rightfully upset that I’m still sat in spawn, but there is literally nothing I can do about it.
Yesterday I had to join SEVEN games before one would actually start, as before the doors would open we would have a leaver - Presumably this is others who are also experiencing the same problem.
The icing on the cake is that I am repeatedly getting suspensions from the Competitive queue, the most recent one being for one hour, even though this issue is completely out of my control.
How can we get Blizzards attention on this to resolve it? God knows we can’t raise an official complaint to them, I’ve tried to on a number of occasions.
It’s very annoying because the issue counts as me ‘abandoning’ my games even though I haven’t even started loaded in??? as a result, I have a twenty-hour ban! I’m a bit worried as it will probably prevent me from ranking up qwq
