Stop quitting

343 really needs to work on putting an end to the quitting issue. There is multiple options to putting an end to this issue as it’s getting to the point where people want to just stop playing Halo all together. Let’s start with option 1 the most obvious option just remove the leave match feature and just make these players sit in the match until it’s over and get killed a bunch of times and make the opposite teams run and gun for them so they spend less time chasing after the players who have the unfair advantage. Option 2 go back to the way halo 4 was with matching filling the slot I never understood why 343 ever got rid of this feature. Option 3 have the system monitor quits and have the system only allow 1 legit quit per week. Option 4 harsher punishment a day of no req points if you quit that day along with the band for excessive quiting. Anyone weigh in with your thoughts on this and put in your ideas on this issue. I know I’m not alone on this when you have multiple matches in a row with quitting is a stat killer and needs to stop just because a select few can’t handle competitive play.

Its called the BanHammer. I think you heard of it correct?

Considering that I’ve can go 50+ completed matches and then disconnect from one and get a ban, I think it’s good as is.

Let them quit, then dont allow them to be able to join a game till the one they quit ends! And mark it as a loss for them.

People will quit, bans are useless because they hit people for grifball betrayals and lag outs, so they do more harm than good. They need to just enable JIP for the first few minutes of a match. The banhammer is counterproductive.

Be sure to report them for quitting early for good measure. Add that salt to their ban hammer. Then when they come here to tell the who forums about the ban hammer being mean to them be sure to clap once for each time they quit a halo match. Because people like to put on a show.

Quitting has become engrained into the community especially with the abused excuse of farming. I agree Arena it shouldn’t even be allowed because of the disadvantage it puts your team in but more and more people are doing it in WZ. Enemy team captures the middle base, 3 teammates instantly leave. The same match we catch up at about the 400 point mark, 2 enemy teammates drop. A back and forth tug of war of quitting players. I also like the idea of RP bans on top of the MM ban, but RP for a longer duration. A 15 min MM ban should come with something like a 60 min RP ban. As big of an issue as this is, the hardest part of implementing any system would be the inconsistency of H5 servers

REGION LOCK MAKE THE PEOPLE QUIT!!! BLAME THE POOR ONLINE SERVICE NOT THE PLAYERS.

Sometimes it is a drop out from the server. These days when someone quits I just assume their connection dropped off.

I’ve had it happen to me a few times last month where it’s out of my control.

However, the not being able to leave in Arena only could make sense. But it might just make people simply turn off their console.

It’s a difficult one.

I don’t truly care what happens to help the people who have to deal with this I have had multiple matches in a row with quitting players in arena and it is getting out of hand because this isn’t the first time it’s happened this month alone I personally would be happy with them just having matchmaking fill the spot but if that’s not possible then something else needs to happen.

Lol a day with no req points… you’re -Yoink!- right? Next it’ll be hey if they quit while ban option 4 is in place we’re going to there house to burn them alive and force them to play in there grave.

Quiting will never go away, some people just don’t care if they have to sit out a few hours or even a day.

Hey here’s a thing that’s been happening - random disconnects.

Some people can’t help this at all and it’s something they have to deal with. Also some people quit because more important things in life pop up sometimes and are way more important than a video game. Because that’s what this is, a video game. nothing is forcing them to stay in the match.

I understand it’s frustrating when somebody straight up rage quits but in reality the banham isn’t going to get anymore severe than it is.

Quitting is as bad as farming in this game but there is only so much that can be done.

What the need is a way for their system to recognize someone lagging out versus someone actually quiting.

Maybe they will have a system worked out for halo 6 but I’d highly doubt they will ever get that down for halo 5.

Ranked game quits should be alot harsher, but warzone quits? Meh, i can understand people not wanting to sit in a 20 minute kill farm, so that’s understandable.

Yeah I can see them tightning up arena bans a little but since warzone has jip I really don’t get the whole quit ban in that area.

So 4 quitting players within 6 matches and people always want pass the blame on servers or w.e. kkinda like oh its my controller no you just aren’t as good as you think you are now I have had the server kick me out but its always mid game or later my stats are starting to go down the crapper because of this crap I truly wish if people cant commit to ranked play they would go play social but social needs to change as well should be infinity social and have all the same game types and maybe these people would play social slayer instead of ranked again any ideas that 343 can do to fix these issues would be great

I feel like there isn’t much quitting in this game.

Something has to be done about quitting. I played 5 Arena matches in a row and in 4 of them a member of my team quit resulting in losses and drops in rank and quite frankly it just sucks to play with three people in Assault or CTF. We were in a position to win 2 of those games easily, and the profiles of the people that drop are all low level accounts. The penalty for quitting needs to be harsh enough to deter people from doing it and it needs to continue with each profile. It is not that hard to use the MAC address on the box to figure out which console is doing this and tie out multiple profiles per console and look at the pattern of behavior. The penalty should be a non-linear function with increasing damage to the quitter by 1) profile and 2) by console (MAC verification). This is data 101. It would massively improve game play and stop this crap behavior.

Also, please stop making everyone re-rank every 30 days, it should be 90 days, and 343 should allow people to rank down with heavy losses. Meaning if it takes x number of wins to move up a rank, it should take 2x the number of losses. So much of this behavior is tied to people constantly re-ranking that perhaps 343 should not force re-rank as frequently.

Maybe Connection issues ?!

Swat Is bad with people quitting. most times Its because they don’t want there W/L % to go down.

WZ, At least every game you get 2 to 8 quitters, few at the start of game, and when they are not winning ( Not being farmed ). Out of the 1300+ WZ games, might have been lagged out 5-6 times. three of the times was after the update about half way through.
