When I missed a queue, it was a 3-minute timeout. If you are getting longer time outs, it is because you are a frequent offender. In other words, the system is working as intended.
I think a better solution than fading completely to black would be to instead fade to grayscale (to clearly distinguish “death vison” from normal vision) and simply hide all enemy players from view. This will allow you to see your allies (and ask them nicely to revive you) while preventing you from doing any scouting.
