JUST PUT ON PROBATION AFTER GETTING DISCONNECTED FROM A MATCH

Posted by smokefx on Dec 8, 2012 9:20 PM

yes, i just got disconnected from a game (omg) and when i went to play again it put me on some retarded probation for "leaving games too often" ROFL, fix your game please... i just started playing the cod series i was a world of warcraft/diablo player (ex fps player) , and wonder what the **** does the Q&A for activison/blizzard do? do you guys even test your games before releasing it to the public? if i was in a senior/management position for either of these companies i would definately look into your employees because these bugs in these games are such a joke. i mean really getting put on probation for getting disconnected from your already terribly laggy game?

 

if anyone else got this bump it until it get to their attention please.

    You won't be out on probation for just one offense. How many times before this one did you leave early?

          You too huh....yep just started today.

           

          Have had this happen this afternoon due to;

           

          1 x Host DB (not me)

          2 x BO2 server drop outs

          1 x XBL drop out

           

          No warning message just 1 minute in the naughty corner. Wouldn't  mind so much if I had been evil....oh well....such is life.

    How many games did you quit while getting whooped prior to this disconnect?  Probation doesn't kick in on the first quit...

      Every Host Migration counts as a "You left the game early" Mr.

       

      I left 1 game early yesterday because everyone in it was red dotting, and I was put on Probation for that. Then the next game I got into crashed and I was put on probation again, so don't make accusations you can't back up.

      That's unfortunate.  Try to remember that probation is a good thing, to prevent poor sportsmanship.

        The probation is a fairly silly concept. Life gets in the way of gaming.

         

        And the patch has broken it and made it worse..

         

        My son was playing... got disconnected by a host dashboard... and he got a 1 minute ban.

    Aight, i live in the midwest, My blops2 connection is super sucky compared to the rest of my internet. Almost every other game is a disconnection to the blops servers. idk if its my wifi, the game, or my xbox. but this probation thing is more of an inconvinence for me than a threat. i personally dont dash board. my k/d is not my life, so i dont db every game because im a *****. the pussys are making me laggy and lose connection. hence forth - me = probation.

    i was just on probation for a year, i dont want my game telling me im back on it!!

    please fix this!

    screw with the dashboarders, not with me. =) ily

    Prior to the patch, I would leave games all of the time due to no fault of my own.  Cable modem would reset, xbox freeze, router would crap out.  I never got probation not once.  However, tonight, I got randomly disconnected from xbox live, and received a 5 minute probation.  Not that big of a deal, but something definitely changed.

    I too am getting kicked or diconnected and put on probation, this is stupid. I'm not quitting, but getting "punished" for it. Not right treyarch.

    What I don't get is how you charge 60$ for a game and Microsoft charging 60$. A year to be able to play online, and then implement some bull crap rule like this, if I want to quit let me quit but don't stop me from playing just because I quit, I quit one game just one and I got some crazy probation for 1 min..wtf! This is retarded, I play for fun but apparently some people live in their parents basement and get sad when they go down a man... Get rid of this crap your destroying a good game you Nazis!

      $120 for a game and service you have to be forced to play laggy matches or maps you hate.

      Allow us to play the maps we like and stop putting me in games that already started and I'll stop leaving.

      Don't forget the additional cost of DLC as well.  Very disappointed with Activision, Treyarch and this game.  Over the years on this series, I have probably spent close to $1000 in games, xbox live subscriptions and DLC, which does not include my headset, which I probably would not have bought if it was not for this game. (and a couple of replacement controllers)

       

      Also a new Xbox, PLUS-about the same amount for my son to be able to play. 

       

      I really expected better.  The best two games IMO were COD 4 and W@W, and they certainly ran better than any game in this series since then.

        I don't buy dlc anymore. After elite it's now a "fool me twice" effect. I won't buy any season passes or maps etc. and now with this silly probation thing, unless they get it fixed it will be me penalizing them 59.95 and not buying another game.

    Fair enough punish Dashboarders, but don't punish people for Migrations and leaving unplayable games.
