Title says it all. I’m so tired of getting into a solo/duo controller ranked match and half way through someone quits because their getting spanked on. It’s impossible to win a match down a player. All that ends up happening is the people who stay end up losing rank. Obviously there needs to be a system to detect when people crash so those people don’t get banned. But at this point solo/duo is unplayable.
It’s been suggested before but I do believe it’s important for 343 to make sure that matches don’t count if someone quits.
i have found that most people are not quitting but getting disconnected i just been kicked out of 4 ranked games and got deranked. i didnt want to leave and 3 of 4 i was winning 2 i was about to win and then i get disconnected and lose rank regardless. they need to fix the constant crashes many people are experiencing.
kind of rude but i agree, bad take because im constantly gettin disconnected the game freezes up and stops responding. now i have to wait out this stupid ban that isnt even my fault
It was more of a rant after a 5th match in a row where two people quit mid game. But they do definitely need to make those matches not count. It’s just unfair to the people who stay in the match and play the game. We’re all here to have a good time and other people ruining that experience shouldn’t count negatively towards the players that stay.
In my last 5 games every player that left had a mic and announced they where just going to quit before they did. But I have also been banned for disconnecting.
Absolutely they need to find a way to know when you get disconnected so it doesn’t count against you.
I see; fair enough. I’d be getting ticked off too if I was running five games in a row with the team down a man or two; but of course, I’d be considering leaving in that situation too. I think the rank loss is less if you leave than if you stay and stick it out, actually. As far as 4v4s go, I think only the first person to quit should be the one punished with a ban, in all playlists; losing your fourth in that scenario is generally still far too much of an advantage for the other team.
Wish more ranked games would give us the option to call a vote towards ending an unwinnable game early. Start vote, most people on team vote to forfeit, game ends and people can move on to the next match.
it’s the challenges… causing people to play ranked when they don’t want to… adding to their anger so instead of yelling thier head off they ALT+F4 or turn off their console…
And thats why it needs a forfeit option. and game/map mode. And rewards for staying in the game. And a proper report system for cheaters. And, and, and….
I’ve given my opinion on quitters and listed what should happen to their rank but then I just left 2 games in a row without any guilt whatsoever.
First one felt like there was a three and a half hour ping. First minute of the game was like a slow motion movie scene, I just left them to it, no point me being there and going massively negative, wouldn’t have helped the team.
Second one my team were deliberately running away from the objective, watching me die in front of them and running in the opposite direction with full shields and the enemy flashing like (nah I’ll leave that joke). I left, again with no guilt and hoped they lost massively and got demoted to bronze where they belong.
Until the connection is decent across the board and people are correctly ranked, people will leave through frustration to end the suffering of themselves and their team.
I disagree, woah woah there, don’t flame me yet, allow me to explain [hypothetically].
I’m playing Ranked mode, I’m in a match and the teams are neck and neck, but then I get a call that my closest friend is in the hospital. Should I get banned permanently because I need to go and visit him? Life happens, it’s not always people leaving because they’re not doing well, sometimes there are legitimate reasons for leaving a match.
Halo 3 did it best in my opinion, if you were going to quit a match, word would pop up on the screen saying you’d lose XP for doing so (which back then determined your rank). If Halo Infinite had a ranking system they could do that, but they don’t.
I’d agree with you if the game didn’t crash or disconnect from servers as much as it does. I was just winning a ranked match and the servers just kicked me randomly. So much time and effort wasted.
A reconnect to game feature would be a lot more helpful. I was in the same boat as you, “Why the F do people quit on ranked” but then I got disconnected like 4 games now, even got banned, was doing well on all games. All because of disconnects. No crash, just plain disconnect. Wish I could just reconnect to my last ongoing game.
