Red Triangles next to each gametype, why?

Games Halo 5: Guardians

Because your banned, thats all I can think of. I believe thats the only reason they show up.

3

Banned for what?

4

Really guy? Your’e that jaded? Okay then…

For the other guy that was helping me, what does DNF mean?

Did not finish. Halo has a ban hammer, this has existed since reach. If you dnf or team kill you will be temporarily banned from playing multiplayer for a period of time. Never permanent though.

10

You are either banned or have too many people in your fireteam for those plalylists

Bungie implemented a ban hammer in Halo 2 to prevent cheaters but it was upgraded in Reach to prevent quitting mid-match.

8 DNF’s in 14 days.

Good chance that’s the reason for your temp ban.

13

DNF = did not finish.

You quite four matches in close timing to each other, with two being back to back. A ban from matchmaking was inevitable with that kind of performance.

343 takes quitting so seriously it’s almost funny. I quit one and disconnected from a match back to back, now I’m on quit probation for the rest of Halo 5. If I quit or disconnect from one arena match, I’ll get banned. I played over 60 matches a disconnected once after that, boom, ban.

As most have noted it looks / sounds like it may be a temporary matchmaking ban, though if you are banned you wil always be shown a red ban screen informing you how long the ban is in place for. Try playing Warzone if you can’t play Arena and vice-versa. If you are unable to play anything, please make a new post in the support forums. If it is indeed a ban, you can post in the Ban thread in the support section (linked further up)
