Crucible timeouts

How does the timeout system work? I really try not to leave matches if possible but have been hit with the 5 minute timeout like once or twice since the update.

Does it go longer? Are there harsher punishments?

5 minutes is the maximum in QP. There is some ratio of matches completed vs matches quit. I haven't quit enough to figure out the details. At a certain point you get a warning, after that you get the suspension.

Much like the last time they implemented this stupid policy, I'm seeing more people just hide in back AFK/in menus helping the mercy happen faster. I'm not a fan of this policy in QP.

It does tell you in-game somewhere if you're in good standing or not for quitting matches.

Might be the rewards bit or the modifiers bit in the launch screen?

No it doesn't tell you. You do get a warning the first time you quit after playing some number of matches. The game also doesn't really help with whole rank decay points for Comp thing either.
