In previous halo games you would easily notice when someone quit, Black screen and a team is down a player for the rest of the game, usually 1-2 people quit on average in 4v4/5v5 and 3-4 in 8v8. With this join in progress A TON of people quit and join every minute! The game just doesnt go to black screen so we don’t notice it as much.
So many people quit games in halo 4 it is ridiculous. I took the time to count how many people quit in 3 BTB games and i count 13 players!! Wow, more people quit games now than ever. I have lost so many games ue to join in progress, when ranks come in next year this is going to damage your rank, we need to get rid of this. If we are really going to get matched up against people of our skill level soon then there shouldn’t be too much quitting anyway 343i!

But we leave becuase it is not our fault, someone else made me lose and I should not be punished for it. when i join in a game that is loosing and i lose and got 7 and 1 with the last 3 minutes left i get mad becuase i could have probably won it from the start.
only time i quit is when ever the map is voted Ragnarok (or as i call it: Ragnor-crap. i hate this map and refused to play it on ANY game type) or complex (if the game type is slayer, odd ball, regicide, or KOTH. complex should not appear in these game types!)

Its truskill and it doesn’t work if you have played halo.
I played ONE KOTH match tonight and joined the game in progress. The team was down 40 points when I joined.
By the time the match ended, I had gone through 6 different people. At one point, there were only two of us on the team actually playing.
Quitting is out of hand, I will agree but I’m not sure what, if anything, can be done about it at this point. JIP isn’t going anywhere and it’s probably impossible to modify since it’s a core mechanic across all game types. The only thing they can do is penalize people for quitting too much, but that will require a LOT of fine tuning to find a “sweet spot” where they’re penalizing enough to keep people from spam quitting without reaching a point where they’re penalizing too much.
Also, I voted for animal crackers.
Because tequila.

Works for me. Most of my games are so evenly matched that I either win or lose by maybe 10 or 20 points.
I think a lot of the problem is that people just think they’re better than they really are. Try-hards are everywhere and they all think they’re MLG pros.

When i play with a full team i rarely have a close game. as soon as it is 70 to 20 the quitting begins
