Leavers and AFK

There needs to be a system where you can leave a game if 1/2 your team is AFK. I’m aware that you can leave if half your team leaves, but playing a game when you have 2/4 players afk is just not fun. This happens ~1/4 of games and is really annoying. Can’t even submit a support ticket due to a 400 error.

AFKers are the worst. I know they’re booted after a select few minutes of inactivity, but these people still nudge their controllers to stay in the game for some unworldly reason.
We all hate it, but honestly, people are still gonna find clever ways to cheat the system. The best you can do is report the players and hope they get a slap on the wrist.

As for the support ticket problem, what’s this 400 error you’re running into?

How do you report in game?

I’ll see if I can replicate it:

if you’re unable to report it in game, you could report them through steam, or xbox live, i don’t know if that’ll have any effect though

A “Safe to Leave” option would be nice, there’s no point for anybody to continue playing a game where a substantial portion of the team has left.

One player annoyed the hell out of me tonight by leaving a game after he died once, causing our team to have no chance and eventually my other 2 teammates and me quit. he completely ruined the game for us. 2 games later i match him again and he is on the other team who is dominating us so of course he doesnt quit. I tbagged and shot his body as hard as i could

Know what you mean. All it does is encouraging people cheating via spawn camping and leaving means the legit player who stayed behind get’s possible punishment due to teams exploiting a design flaw that 343i should fix regardless of they think it’s a “design choice”. Leaving this type of thing for so long is why I hate doing competitive challenges since modes like Invasion just involve people cheating when teams become unbalanced just so they can cheat and get their ranks up with little resistance. I’m seriously baffled as to why any dev would leave this issues in for as long as it has.

Thing is depending on how good your team is sometimes less can be better.

Every now and then when a couple of players leave the game it’s been possible to still win. You just have to be a tad more stealthily or use the power weapons that spawn on the map.

If a couple of players leave you could loose. If you think negative you’ll definitely loose.

Depends on the game type. I’ve been in BTB matchs and held my own then there’s game types like Invasion where it usually turns into players cheating via spawn camping while trying to provoke players into leaving for a possible ban. It’s rather frustrating when trying to do challenges and level up to be forced to put up with it.

This is my biggest peeve in the commu ity but its sort of hard to fix it.
