Okay, so I started doing some custom games just for fun today. However, the games starts counting down whenever there's enough people in the game and then you can't disconnect.

Is this intended? Feels dumb as hell. Other people leaves but you're stuck there by yourself until the game loads so u can leave. I usually logout via the menu, but it feels very 'work around'. Am I missing the big button that says leave on it or what's going on?

This is what they do:

They logout, causing you hell because they are all bitches t.t One of the many issues that's wrong with custom games today. People love leaving mid countdown leaving you to force logout and the timer doesn't kick off before the game starts.

It's one of those "what the fuck did you do to bnet" moments I have experienced here and there.

well, on the bright side u get a 1 second victory.

but agree this is dumb, leaving should cancel countdown.

if im a bronze player, and i was to check dude's profile and its diamond, i dont want to waste my time. seems like there can be legit reasons for leaving.

Just logout too if they leave. It's annoying as hell but it's better than going ingame and then quitting

This illustrates yet another problem with the custom game system. I do the same thing if I see my opponent is gold or lower, and there's no problem with leaving a game if you feel its not evenly matched, however.... Why the FUCK does it just auto start with a 30 second timer? Either make it a 3 second auto start so no one can back out or just let the players decide for themselves to hit start. Why does blizzard feel after years of clicking the start button for ourselves we need an autopilot?
