I was lead to believe that it’ll be optional.
I’m frustrated because of that, since ¨join in progress¨ puts you in a position that I would not like to be put in. The main issue is, that I don’t want to be prevented from being MVP against players that are less skilled than me.
Anyway, it’s unbalanced. What’s your take on it?
Should only be available in big team games.
4v4 doesn’t need it.
As long as I can turn off the option to get put into games, I don’t care if there is join in progress.

It’s a good thing to have when the randoms with their guest buddies bail on you when things get too hot 
Join in progress is most welcome.

I do agree with this, but OP why dos it matter if your MVP an then you get put agents noobs?

Such an option wasn’t mentioned. Sadly.

I’ve had bad experiences with players that bashed me for ¨sucking¨ while I joined in the last 2 minutes in Black ops. The next match I usually ended up being MVP with a 2x bigger score than everyone else. Still, I hate to be put in such a spotlight. Since some players are really cheap and immature.

You are a wonderful human being, thank you! Hopefully this can lay some of the competitive concerns about drop in/drop out to rest :D!

Josh Holmes, the man who responded to the tweet from Blulit3flam3, is the Creative Director for Halo 4. He said that Join In Progress is set by playlist, meaning that playlists aimed at being more competitive will not have the feature enabled (we hope).

Thanks for the clarification. Lets hope for the best.
> Thanks for the clarification. Lets hope for the best.
You’re quite welcome. I really can’t see 343i overlooking the competitive fanbase by not having the feature restricted. It would just be such an incredible oversight on their part…I can’t imagine a functional MLG playlist with it.
Edit:Spelling
this is the best thing for social games…
…minimize game anxiety by letting quitters quit when they want,
the remaining teamates at least have a full team and
the opposing team more victims/oppenents to slay instead of chase a couple stragglers around for 2 years…
WIN WIN WIN.

I agree with smaller modes it would be a mess.

How would it be a mess in smaller social playlists?
I’m happy that it’ll be in SOME playlists, once it’s kept it a few limited amount of playlists and not brought into Team Slayer, BTB, etc.
It’s much too complicated if you have non-gameplay features only in some maps, but not others. I like join in progress so you won’t be stuck with an empty team if people bail early.
