Better punishment for leaving game early.

Multiple times I go into a game of four people with at least one friend of mine. So many times we have both our other teammates leave early in the game. No way we are winning a 2 v 4. And it’s early in the game. Within the first two minutes they are gone if they start off without a kill or the other team goes out to an early lead. There needs to be a better punishment for this. With the way the ranking system works, those losses are a big deal. There is nothing the players that stay in the game can do about it. We just go down a rank or leave as well so we don’t have to get demolished for 12 minutes. Either make the people that leave banned right away or the losses shouldn’t count toward your ranking if your teammate leaves. It’s just extremely frustrating.

Because of this I honestly cannot play Halo 5 anymore on modes other than FFA or Warzone. Even then, half the time Warzone doesn’t find a game/players, and I haven’t been a fan of FFA since H3. So I don’t really have a reason to play, even with the Overtime update. 343 better get their s**t together or this franchise is going to die. And this is coming from someone who loves Halo and has bought every game…but that might change if things continue to be sub-par.

I 100% agree. 343 made Halo 5 with the intention of it being highly competitive, but yet forgot to add a few key ingredients of a competitive game. CS:GO and LoL are two very excellent examples of competitive games that did the DNF banning right.
