Hey everyone
Is it just me that thinks allowing a loss to go on your record when you’ve been chucked into the last 10 seconds of a match is completely -Yoinked!- up?
I’m getting increasingly sick of this happening. It’s obviously a symptom of less people playing it, there are fewer new game lobbies to put you in so it just puts you in a join in progress instead. And normally the reason for that is that people are losing so they quit and that makes a space in their team for some poor sucker to unwittingly fill.
Just enjoyed all of ten seconds of an assault game before the loss, which I’ve checked has been recorded as a loss.
I cant remember what it is but something I played recently prevents the loss stat if you join really late. I think it was battlefield.
Anyway I think this is completely and utterly ridiculous to have unranked games counting towards my arena win/loss percentage, NEVERMIND bloody counting 10 second JIPs as -Yoinking!- losses. Sort your -Yoink- out 343i, this sorta stuff is getting worse.
I agree. Joining a losing game late should not count as a loss.
It’s absolutely absurd, I can’t get my head around it at all, why they would even launch a game where that is possible. Baffling.
Always hated this. There should be a certain threshold of time from the end of a match that would determine whether the game counts towards win/loss. for example, in WZ if you join with at least 5 mins remaining, then it should count, but less than that and there was no real way to rescue a game as a late joiner so id will be struck off. This time threshold could be reduced for arena obviously, like SWAT could be set to 1 1/2 - 2 mins from end of match etc.
Maybe they are planning this already, so I guess we will have to see whether it gets attention this year before halo 6 releases.
It like JIP for Race type games. Thats a big no.

Exactly, it would be so easy to implement, like you day a time restriction would work perfectly. I just hate joining with literally a few seconds to spare then losing 
Jip isn’t for competitive games, just social.
Typically people who play social don’t worry so much about their win lose ratio. However, there are many exceptions.

Of course, but you are kind of forced to care because it doesn’t separate your social and ranked stats. I love ranked and care about my stats, which is why playing social is so off putting because I might lose more frequently as I’m not trying, and this means its skews my stats. Add on to that that you could be dropped in a game seconds from finishing and its borderline insulting. And there can be no argument that says you’re as likely to be winning in that scenario, because you’re not. I’ve never played a JIP game where I wasn’t on the losing side, and that’s because people only leave when they’re raging. Unless its connection related but I’ve personally never dropped out of a match and don’t believe the problem is that bad.

I’m confused as to what you’re saying no to

That JIP for Race games should not being a thing. You have no chance of winning if you join in 20 seconds late.

I totally agree. Heck, I think it’s stupid that 343 can’t balance. 9 out of 10 Warzone matches-and I’m dead serious-it’s a blowout. I mean either my team wins big or the other team wins big. Most of the time the final score margin is greater than 400 VP. It is super unbalanced.
Fix your -Yoink- 343

Aaaah thanks for clearing that up I don’t know why I couldn’t make sense of it (too tired maybe). Yeah I agree its absurd. The first race I did, 90% of the people in it didn’t join till I was almost finished lol
So your also saying here joining late and winning shouldn’t count as a win as well just to make it fair
I have joined several breakout games in the final round without actually getting to play at all. I don’t see anything but the end of game screen sometimes.
As there is not a way I can think of to make it “Not count as a loss” I believe if they were to add a sort of barrier which wouldnt let you enter a particular game (In this example its going to be warzone) if say the scores we are beyond 650/1000 or if there was only a certain amount of time left.

I would rather that than have losses count against you when you were there for ten seconds, yes.
It’s happened to me 4 times today so far. This is beyond a joke.
