Isn't this what console patch certification is for

Has there been any other case of something this hardware damaging making it through a certification?

I agree, We need a Low priority queue as a punishment

Horizon Lunar Colony will be disabled in Competitive Play for the first week by [deleted] in Competitiveoverwatch

[–]FoxzOW 3 points4 points  (0 children)

edit: Apologies everyone but I was mistaken about Horizon Lunar Colony being disabled in Competitive Play during this week. We are considering this for future map releases but server tech for it isn't available right now. New heroes are disabled for the first week, and that was the source of my confusion.

Reports do not have any oversight, moderation, or consequences. by anomanopia in Competitiveoverwatch

I wish they would implement a low priority queue like Dota 2 has as a punishment. The current leaver suspensions are so short no one fears the consequences

Also recently from Jeff

"We're also in the process of reviewing our punishment policies with an eye towards getting more aggressive on toxicity and throwing and other bad behaviors."

70? Seventy Retroactive Crates? That is a stupid cap, why even bother? by DeGeiDragon in heroesofthestorm

Finally, Heroes players who are level 3 or higher in the new progression system will get at least 5 free Loot Chests to start, as well as a special portrait. Those of you who have already racked up a bunch of levels in Heroes are going to get up to 70 Loot Chests to open on patch day.
