I think its time we have this conversation because this has gone on long enough and the scene is TRYING to get more serious. If Warzone ever wants to become a proper E-sport on the biggest stage and keep growing we gotta start addressing issues in these scrims/ tourneys. We have to wait 30+ minutes between games because: - players take forever to join - randoms can join the lobbies and the admins have no way of pausing the lobby/ kick them effectively - the lobbies STILL crash after being up too long.+ Not to mention the sheer number of game crashes and a rejoin feature that only works half of the time. These wait times are AWFUL for players and viewers alike. Viewership tanks and players get iced/ tired (especially EU players/ viewers). Additionally we STILL don't have custom match rulesets where we can ban items that NOBODY wants in the tourneys. All of these things are terrible for the scene and advertises/ tourney organizers looking to get involved with Warzone are no doubt put off by it. The game and the comp scene can be so great if an ounce of effort is put in. There is so much money already being pumped into it, so why not invest in the infrastructure to make it orders of magnitude better to both watch and play. @ATVI_AB @CallofDuty
