I’m fed up of joining a game halfway through to be greeted with an incredibly low score and a drop of CSR.
not much you can say other than, they mucked up again really, they seem to fail to think these things through
I know the pain
I feel you too, man. Sometimes I can’t help but doubt if 343ers actually play Halo.
They said they will lower the JIP window to a 5 min or less.
I completely agree…JIP+CSR=Fail. Sure games like BTB and Slayer etc. only count individual score and not win/loss, but when you JIP a game, you usually join the losing team, and with that, the losing team is usually getting owned. It is hard to make a stand that late in a game. They really need to fix this, either get rid of JIP or fix the CSR pairing system.
You know that when put into the lobby for a JIP match (before the game loads), you can avoid the match by changing to ‘My Xbox’ on the start menu instead of Xbox Live (which takes you to the MM lobby) and then changing back to continue searching.
Or you know, remove JIP entirely. The past Halos were fine without it.

*Oompa remembering Reach times, entire team quits except Oompa. Now 1v8 on Big Team.
Yeah, the game was “fine”. Don’t let your nostalgia completely shroud your memories and past feelings, people.

Or…why not have an option as to whether or not you want to be able to JIP or not.

Apparently, it’s a minute or less. 5 minutes is still too much.
Most of the JIP playlists are ranked by your Individual score… So you ranking down is YOUR individual fault.
Most of the non-JIP playlists are ranked by wins/losses.
No one to blame but yourself.

If you JIP and your team is down 330-30, your individual performance will almost never be as good as those who were there for the entire game.
I just joined in a game that was 340 to 20, I leave, per usual. No point in waisting my time for a pointless loss. Get put into another join in progress game. This one is 930-900. I finish the game 0-0. Double CSR drop
