So what if I haven’t played Halo 5’s Ranked Multiplayer in a long time, and after getting back into it I finally start doing better on my 11th game, after being ranked?

Easily handled. The example given is a simple illustration for more complex stuff going on behind the scenes.

Awesome! I assume it’s all being monitored as well for you to read behind the scenes, to make any necessary adjustments and what not.
Great to hear and hoping to try out this new system soon!
Oh and I’m curious to know if there’s any plans to make bans relating to 1st quitters within the ranked environment a little more strict?
An example would be: 1st time offense (within a 16 hour period) equals a 5 minute ban, 2nd time offense equals a 15 minute ban, 3rd time offense equals an hour ban, a 4th time offense equals an 8 hour ban, and a 5th time offense within that 16 hour period leads to a 24 hour ban (which also resets a player’s 16 hour period).
Did this change require an update to Halo 5? I keep getting the error message “You need this update, but we can’t get it right now. Try again in a while. (0x8b050033)”
Edit: nevermind, looks like Xbox is having issues.
Hey Menke, I made a second account last night to get back into ranked after my 13 day ban, I placed Diamond 1 and hit 2, but I have been playing normally, although rusty. I’m slightly afraid the system might think I’m abusing the system if I start playing better after this rust wears off! Or that making a second account and playing normally as I am can re-ban me.

Unless you start dropping 30 kills a game all of a sudden after you were averaging 13-17 kills in prior games, you shouldn’t be flagged for playing what the game considers “normal” for you.
I understand boosting is an issue, but what happens to people who have friends who are significantly lower levels? My boyfriend is a gold if not worse and I am a champ or high onyx in all playlists. So you are saying if I want to play with my SO in his favorite playlists, I’m going to get banned? Please explain, because if that is the case, that’s awful.
