Ban people leaving Ranked. No exceptions

I understand some people crash, sometimes, occasionally, but that is entirely irrelevant when it comes to people who intentionally leave.

I wish people who left Ranked games were banned from Ranked matchmaking for 24 hours, at the very least.
To make it easier for people who get kicked out of a game, let them appeal the ban, but at the end of the day, just please for the love of all that is holy, ban quitters.

I can’t tell you how many times I have lost Ranked games because of quitters who didn’t want to play Strongholds or Oddball…

I think a ban is a bit harsh - do you only the first person to quit?

What if all 3 of your teammates have quit and it’s 4v1? Is the last person supposed to stay in the game for a loss AND get their K/D destroyed?

I do agree there need to be punishment. Perhaps a penalty to their ranking is more acceptable, 3 strikes in 48 hours and then -1 tier?

i say we could do a suspension from ranked with a rank penalty?
or is that too much?

This sounds reasonable

Quit = console bricked no exception or mercy given

and maybe
if it is just people not caring for sake of challenges
reset their challenges after repeated leavings

with full respect
if your xbox/pc bricked you got bigger issues than being banned/suspended from ranked

I’ve seen a few streamers get banned because their game crashed so many times and some of the bans were pretty long but not 24 hrs. In my experience at diamond rank almost everyone who quits does it because their game crashed.

I’m a skeptic with regards to the efficacy of anti-quit, -cheat, -betrayal, -afk bans; I think they are generally ineffective at solving the problem while also punishing innocent bystanders who fell into the crossfire. But what do I know? Do as you will.

Time to play hide and seek.

That’s just cruel.

In H5 rank as soon as 1 player on your team leaves you wont get a penalty for quitting. Because everyone on one team leaving is better than everyone on both team sitting around playing a pointless game for several minutes. Im not sure if Halo Infinite has the same system

I definitely believe once we can select a game mode for ranked we’ll see a lot less quiters. Personally I get sad every time I get loaded in to a CTF match because I know within the first 30 seconds half my team is going to leave and I’m just gonna have to watch my rank go down.

I think the better option is to stick with the temp bans but the remaining team members don’t lose rating.

To avoid abusing it anyone who is in a party with the person who intentionally hits leave mid game will still lose rating, just to stop teams trying to abuse it to never lose rating.

answer to your title: no

game crashes, sometimes everyone has disconnects, sometimes theres emergency.

I’m all for some type of penalty but this may be a bit harsh. Things happen outside of a game that is not in your control, which may result in quoting the match to deal with said unexpected event.

I had to quit a game during the week for non related game issues. It happens and it stinks for the other players but it’s just one game.

I’m a very competitive player, but at the end of the day we are playing for fun.

How the heck do you know they didn’t crash -_- . MCC cant even determine when someone crashed or just quit. It all equals a ban. Ask yourself that. The REAL fix for this is to make the losing team not lost Rank at all and the enemy team can still rank up if they win…it’s that simple. Once the game detects the teams are uneven, accomdate accordingly.

As unstable as this freaking game is, how crap the spawns are, the fact that we are STUCK with stupid objective games mixed in rotation, harsh ban is the LAST thing that would help. Hell, I wish I could quit matches when I see Oddball, Flag or Strongholds 100 times during the day with only Slayer coming up ONCE since players do not want to play the objective we are stuck with.

well it would teach them a lesson now wouldn’t it?

Not really they would just complain at 343 and they’d have to deal with even more hate

how about working on the problems causing the quits? just a crazy idea…

Man, I crash at least twice a play session. Unfortunately I don’t think handing out bans is the way to go until their client is stable.

People will still quit
