This is not a rant, however I have, on several occasions today questioned why I have been put in certain scenarios.
For example, I have literally just quit out of a BTB game because I joined the game, was put on the losing team and we were losing 440-90 I think they had all the vehicles, weapons you name it.
Of course I would not have the same problem if the roles were reversed, No gamer would that’s just fact… but even then it gets tedious real quick because actually starting games and then getting your backside thrown all over the map proves better because you can then admit defeat respectfully rather than join and have it go against your record because you do not want to stay in a lobby you are 99% sure that you will lose.
Does anyone know if any JIP bugs or fixes were dealt with or was this something I think I have heard and actually somehow made the whole thing up?
It’s been tweaked and adjusted numerous times. I doubt it will ever please people. Last night we quit a BTB game that was unplayable due to horrendous amounts of lag. We then searched again and got dumped back into the same game. Thanks JIP.

Oh man, that is hilarious, sorry.
Join in Progress still to this day keeps me from going into matchmaking by myself. It’s dreadful.

Best part was when we got dropped back into the game it wasn’t nearly as laggy and we won lol.
Seems like my win rate has gone so much recently because I’m just backing out of JP Games. at least my CSR is finally going above 18.
The problem wouldn’t be anywhere near as bad if it had enough checks before it even started looking for people to fill up a game; something like this:
Is there enough players to play a map for that playlist? If no, next.
Are there more players on one side than the other? If yes, next.
Is the score less than 50 in favour of the winning team? If yes, next.
Has the game exceeded 2(4) minutes? If no, start search.
I appreciate why JIP has been devised, but the system just doesn’t check nearly enough parameters before finding more people. Tbh, they could just not penalize people quitting after the first quit. I started playing in Reach and the number of games were people quit out and it frustrating. The fact that it as getting to the point where every other game was basically a ban just put me off of playing it completely. At least if you knew that you were only ever going to get into a JIP game, you’d know that it was still in a winnable situaton
Compare it to DotA, not sure if LoL is the same sorry, but when one people quits everyone else can safely quit out with no ramifications because the game is designed around 5v5, anything less is just unfair to whichever side.

As someone who only goes into MM by myself I agree it is dreadful. I’ve been put into the same BTB game on numerous times. Last night I got put into a CTF game on complex 3 flags down with my team being spawn killed, that sure was fun.
