Given how frequently people disconnect, quit, or just simply never load into the match creating a 3v4, can we please get a forfeit option? Especially when the team with 4 decides to stat farm when you try and just give them the game to get it over with. Thanks.

You’re afraid to quit because you might get banned right? Removing the quit ban accomplishes the same result of allowing you to end the stat farm without the need to appeal to a console of other players. Same thing less steps.
The problem with this is it will be abused unless there is some form of punishment. Also, being forced to play game modes, the broken RNG list, and forced cross-play that many don’t like does not help any either.
this as Theshadow_CA said is not a good idea because it would get abused and would only result in more games of 3v4s or worse.
i completely agree that a forfeit option would be a great quality of life option.
i think rocket league is a great example to follow.
it replaces the quit match option with the vote to forfeit option, every player can only start a forfeit vote once, and once they have started the forfeit vote if the rest of the team doesn’t want to end the game that players vote option returns to the quit match option and they can chose to leave with possible penalties.
votes only last about 15 seconds and requires the full team to agree, when a vote is started it appears on screen and you open the menu and vote yes or do nothing to vote no.

I don’t want to quit because it would be damaging to rank as well as the ban you mentioned. Also, it would very quickly get abused when people get gametypes they do not want to play. Just a simple forfeit voting option would be nice - or if the game results were just void upon completion. And I believe the forfeit option would only need to become available in 3v4 situations. It should not be available all the time or it would also get abused.
Just would be nice to save some time!
What’s the abuse? People quit out of games? Whoop dee doo. The quit ban has not solved this issue in any Halo game thus far. It has only introduced a more annoying AFK meta, banned for lagging out meta and staying in games you do not want to play meta.
Why treat video games like it’s something so serious that you need to be punished for? Why make the experience even less fun by having a voting process? If the quit ban stays, I for one will always vote to stay in the game just out of spite of the entire system. Either everyone suffers bad games out of the fear of a ban or nobody does.
As for this. I do not see how a vote to forfeit would not make the same impact.
well because games are competitive. simple as that, no one likes losing regardless if you’re trying your hardest to win or just relaxing while playing, when a player quits they remove themselves from the problem while the remanding players get a lessened experience, so quit penalties are needed to disincentives quitting,
a vote system would be great even if only in ranked. and a vote systems best aspect is the ability to end heavily unbalanced matches where the score could be 8 to 28, not just to have everyone quit and avoid ban penalties.

We actually need this, some sort of mercy rule needs to come in play.
I can see this as a valid thing in ranked. But for the rest of the game, people should be free to back out because the steaks are not the same.
