Is this the go next prevention system?
I noticed I got this message. I remember what match it is from when unfortunately I was too long in toilet and the match had started when I came back and I was pretty much camped to death in first hook so I was unable to play rest of the match and the rest of the team got slugged. So now if I ever dare to go into toilet again or if I have emergency I will be getting penalties? Amazing system...

Best bet is to queue up after using the toilet not before 🚻

Yeah, someone who's literally AFK the entire match is definitely a weird edge-case they didn't think of. Hopefully they'll patch that soon.

Yeah I was waiting at my friend lobby when he was still in match and put ready I didn't expect to take that long...

Yeah and I was probably like minute or two at most AFK and did all the skill checks on hook too but unfortunately no-one managed to save me from furst hook anymore. Unluckily the killer just destroyed rest of the team.
I've seen people getting warnings from getting tunneled out too fast...

Honestly, i think thats totally fair. You got a warning, its not like you got banned.

I was thinking the same, although @Deathstroke you were innocent in this case, the parameters that led to it are pretty accurate to ehat someone trying to duck the game would do...
As this is in your case a 1 off outlier occurrence, born of unfortunate circumstance, I wouldn't say it's cause for alarm. 🤘

It's a terrible system that needs to be shut off until they can get it right.

I don't think they should ever try to get it right, tbh. I would prefer if they just disabled it and never tried again.

So do I tbh but I doubt BHVR will give it up. They put too much time into it and you can tell they were really proud of it.

No. The only way they could get it right is if they would stalk you and find out why you are afk. How should the system decide its an emergency or something similar? Thats just impossible to differentiate.

Idk how they can fix it. All I know is it's not a good or well thought out system. It needs to be disabled until they can better fine tune it or be scraped entirely.

Lets be real, you kinda have impossible standards.
If someone is often afk at the start of the game, no matter the circumstances, he should be punished. How many emergencies would you need to have?

Same we already have dc penalty and hook suicides removed which is more than enough. At worst they could give player who is AFK whole match dc penalty. But the system should take consideration hiw long the match was few minutes match it's really unfair to give penalty.
Meanwhile I play fortnite I can leave any match or be AFK forever without punishment.

I quess I should just quit survivor in case I ever have emergency in future. It's really unfair one time out of hundreds/thousands matches being AFK for moment and get warning if Im ever again AFK I will be penalized.
If match lasted bit longer I would been fine in this system but killer ended it prematurely. Most suck thing my friend could saved me but asked mercy from killer instead...

That's only one of the problems with the system. People get hit for being tunneled out early. What happens if you are the first down and nobody saves you? There are simply too many issues.
2 -
The tunneling one is a issue. But that has nothing to do with the topic here.
The best way to solve the tunneling issue would be to buff anti-tunneling etc. Bc personally i dont care if i get a penalty from that. If i get repeatedly tunneled that hard i dont want to play anyway.
Is the penalty for staying on hook really a thing? Seems like a big mistake, bc you cant do it willingly.

No, the system removes everything after 20 matches. So if you dont go afk in the next 19 matches, your account should be completely clean.
And even if you go afk in those 19 matches the penalty is not that bad. I think 1-2 min the first time, maybe 5 min until you can search for a match again.

It's hilariously sad.
You could get nabbed off a gen by a stealth Killer in the first minute and if you get camped to death you'll get a warning, he wasn't even AFK the whole game since he did the hook skill checks (a bathroom-less version of what happened here).
Even if this didn't happen, the sheer fact that getting tunnelled too fast can get you warned should be a sign to disable the system again (since they reactivated it without a warning in the patch notes) and keep it off.

Not sure why so much crying Over a warning
Honestly you ruined a game for 4 ppl and took 5-10mins of their time away.
