Join In Progress, In Regicide/FFA?

What the -Yoink- were you thinking?

This mechanic makes no god -Yoink!- sense in anything but team games, and doesn’t even really make sense in team games either.

This whole game is a joke. Here’s an idea, stop letting Regicide form a -Yoinking!- match when there’s only two players in the game.

Holy -Yoink-! That’s an awesome idea right?

Fix this game.

You can cancel out of a join in progress.

Thanks for missing my point entirely.

Anyone not dumb care to comment?

No, I meant you can change your connection to LAN when you are joining a game in progress.

Then you change it back to live and try the search again.

So you’re suggesting that we circumvent 343’s poorly implemented features by using the game interface in ways it wasn’t intended to be used.

That’s somehow a better alternative to telling 343 that their game is bad and that they need to put more thought into things?

I’m really getting tired of the fanboys on this forum that can’t accept that their franchise is being ruined.

You don’t like joining games in progress, I don’t like games that are 4vs1.
We both can’t be happy.
Man up buddy and have a happy holiday.

50% of my join ins either occur at the VERY beginning of the game, and the other 50% of the time the team I join is down 200 points and then I quit. PLEASE, get rid of the join in system. I’ll wait for a full lobby of people and THEN when my team gets down by 200 points I’ll quit.

I would rather wait 15 minutes in between games to get a GOOD match, than be rolling a dice every time I join matchmaking.

I’ve been thrown into 3 JIP games IN A ROW that were halfway finished, is there anything more demoralizing than joining a game and KNOWING you’ve lost the moment you join?

Even if you’re an amazing player, you’re not going to win a game when you’re down 250 to 0.

There is no fun in joining a game essentially handicapped, just so all of the impatient morons can get games a little faster. Patience is a virtue, giving impatient little kids the world is why America is such a -Yoinked!- up place right now.

Edit: I understand that the latter half of the last paragraph is a little off topic, but it is true. We are in a downward spiral right now, and every single person in the video game industry (FPS, MMOs, etc.) are beginning to cater to the screaming, crying masses.

I am so -Yoinking!- sick of having my entertainment experience dumbed down for the sake of appeasing the idiotic masses.
