Remove In-Progress-Warzone-Match Joining Please

Why is this even a thing? Being made to join an already-in-progress Warzone match, to fill a hole left by someone who quit… People usually quit because their team is horribly losing! Every single time I’m ever placed into an already-going match, we’re generally losing by, like, 300 to 700, or even worse; I have NEVER, EVER been on the winning team of a Warzone match where the game matchmade me into an already-in-progress game; it’s always me being placed on a team that has, like, a 400±point deficit, and ends in a horrid, epically one-sided curbstomb in the enemy’s favor. Just today, I was placed into an in-progress match literally right as the enemy team captured the final base and made our core vulnerable, and proceeded to steamroll over every pitiful defense thrown in their way and obliterate our core while we had, like, only 300 points at the end of it.

There is no fun to being placed into a no-win, guaranteed-defeat situation! In the saying ‘rats leaving a sinking ship’, they’re leaving the ship for a reason: it’s already sinking! So don’t toss me right into the hold when it’s already bound for Davy Jones’ Locker!

It’s irritating but I just see it as a chance to quick farm some some rep points

Sucks but JIP is needed in warzone. Look at the post game carnage report and scroll to the bottom… the grey names are people that quit. There is usually like 8-10 players that left.

Look at it as free rp… if youre Jip’d and getting stomped just guard your base. Go to where the pelican drops you off they cant spawnkill you there.

Please no. Once a bunch of people started leaving the match would get so boring without people jumping in. Warzone is casual, so let people join in.

I’d have to disagree with removing it. I agree it can get irritating, i’ve joined some losing games and it sucks. But if it was removed it would be worse, i’ve had people leave my team when were doing good, so picture yourself on the winning team and 4 or more people leave, suddenly your becoming out numbered and no longer winning. It would suck

Just stick trough it

Its pretty much neccessary, do you really want 12 v 1 games?

I don’t mind it actually. Its a good chance to farm some fast req points even if its a loss.

I just quit right back out. Been banned because of it a few times but 343 will never force me to play those games.

I have on several occasions, but then again, I have played more than twice as many Warzone matches compared to you.

The bottom line is no, they shouldn’t disable join-in-progress in the Warzone playlist. They did that for the ranked Arena playlists, and that’s appropriate. Doing that for a social playlist is far too strict. However, I would like to see them increase the quitting penalty for those who intentionally leave the Warzone match early. That would be a decent compromise.

I joined several on the winning team. One as we were about to destroy the enemy core even. Nice easy win. Another where we were also dominating, however I had a gambit Spartan kills on so that sucked. (Still got it though, had to keep running out and getting kills as fast as I could)

Joining a losing match in progress should not count as a loss on your stats. But JIP saves warzones for the people who stick until the end.

This is a stupid post. Honestly the only time JIP shouldn’t be in a playlist is ranked. That’s it. Everything should have it. And joining a Warzone game in progress just means you get your req points sooner, its a win-win.

Terrible idea, you think its bad now? Just imagine being stuck in a game when you’re down eight players.

They should have in progress joining for arena as well.

The point is: Every Single Time I’ve been made to join an in-progress Warzone match, it’s not only been a loss, but a horrendous loss, by at least 5-600 points. It always puts me with a team that is already losing, and already losing badly.

theres no way around the fact that most people who quit are from the losing team

It needs to stay permanently. it’s annoying as is it to constantly deal with constant quitters, afkers.

And two of us have already said that we have been made to join an in-progress Warzone match on the winning team, so it sounds like you have had bad luck and/or haven’t played enough yet.

Asking them to disable join-in-progress simply because you have bad luck isn’t really appropriate.

When the game does this, it’s trying to make the game better for the other 11 people on your team. The game is prioritizing 11 people already in a game rather than 1 person who isn’t. That sounds fair to me.
