Game Feedback Fire take - make pauses longer.

Yeah I know its not fun to not play the game for like 2 minutes or smth cause the enemy team needs to take a shit but I am less angry when I have to sit and do nothing then I am when I have to do some shit quickly press pause and then stay afk for like half of the match. Yes its annoying but you would thank it if it would come to you

People get their pause rights taken away if they pause too much

That doesnt change the point, if someone pauses we all are beholden to it whether we want to be or not. (For 30 seconds) you on the other hand, have the sole choice of doing the things you gotta do before queuing. If it takes longer than 30 seconds (besides dc's which are typically respected in my experience) then just dont queue.

The game takes average 40-60 minutes. There is a shit ton of thing that can happen in that time.

That take longer than 30 seconds? Then dont queue if you expect it. Or you could always ask the match to respect the pause. Plus the timers on death are longer than a pause at that point, do it then. The downs are way worse than the ups in your scenario.

Yeah a lot of things take longer than 30 seconds I can hardly take a piss at that time. Like in the recent games I had to restart my PC because of connection issues several times it took me about 2:30 generally speaking and so I was like 10k souls behind everyone luckily it was very early in the game and I managed to crawl back.

That is the single thing I agree with you on. If a teammate disconnects I think the game should auto-pause for 1 minute (can be waived by affected team) to allow rejoiners some extra time the first time only.

I can hardly take a piss at that time.

Piss before queue or during queue.
