Game not kicking and replacing disconnects in QP

[Alcina]

Last few days been playing QP and people will disconnect and the game will take like a minute or longer to actually drop the person and replace them. Getting tired of playing basically entire games with 4 people.

Noticed the same. After someone leaves bot takes their place but doesn't pick any hero and just stays afk till the end.

Same here - it takes a while until disconnected players get kicked out and been replaced. Sometimes I play entire matches in a 5vs6 matchup.. You also get a penalty if you leave the game if you don't want to play a 5vs - that's pretty disgusting!

QP shouldn't have leaver penalties. Its what killed OW for me.

Not what we're getting.

It's the game announce X has disconnected, it shows the name with the broken connection showing they're dced, and instead of kicking and replacing them...it does nothing for up to a few minutes.

Well the game is trying to locate players who is not yet joined up on a game, while having the bot join being a backup. So it is annoying for the game to give you those moments of long wait for new players or a bot.

Wouldn't mind a bot joining in the meantime.

Not sure if its taking awhile to find someone, or its taking awhile for the game to kick the people who are dced.
