Hey.. never used it so far, but am now considering it...

The question: if you block someone in the team overlay, does that block you from getting matched together in the future, or just block any voice and text communication originating from that person?

If it´s the former, then I may need to start using it to avoid getting matched with some of the "I hate this map /mode" DCers more than once... ;)

Just communication.

Wish it was the former one...

And there is no block list. If you drop with them again, you have to block again

. It's feature, embrace it.

There is a block list, it is at the bottom of your friends list. I have had 12 people blocked for a long time now.

Also it does block you from dropping with them if you are in solo drops.


Yeah, this I knew about, I just figured that maybe PGI would have taken what many games consider a logical step and made an ingame block global and not just for that match. It´s no biggie either way, though, I have a long memory when it comes to betrayal and idiocy ;)

People would just game that system so they blocked tough opponents and would only be left with easier opponents to play against.

No, it does not. If it were to be the case, it would irrevocably break the matchmaker.
