I repeat, I hope they ban you soon so we get rid of one more leaver and I ask, ARE THE MODERATORS AWAKE AND READING?
They are accepting them in the FACE of their fury “I’M LEAVING THE GAMES I DON’T CARE” I’m just going to play slayer. Seriously MODS are there? is TROLLING in your FACE shamelessly

Here’s a better option: let us choose to play Slayer like literally every other Halo game did before. That way I’m happy because I get to play slayer, and you’re happy because I don’t have to quit anymore.
Everyone will be better off if we can choose to play the game modes we want.

100% with you on that.
@CrAZYVIC333: The devs ruined Gears 5 completely by themselves by drip feeding content, total lack of maps, a very lackluster selection of characters (iconic characters weren’t playable for months) and a predatory integration of a store with tons of microtransactions.
They also messed up horde by restricting skills to characters (was fixed after a year or so LOL) and changed the weapon balance like every 2 months and had to rework the entire ranked system from the release version.
Almost nobody liked the open world aspects of the campaign because it felt uninspired and took a lot of the flow out of the gameplay by adding “Drive to this location and do some mundane stuff”.
Do any of these points sound familiar? 
Your suggestions are one of the most useless and worst ideas I have ever read in my entire life.

Summary
OK. If quitting is going to get me banned than I will AFK because realistically that’s what this quit-ban system has been encouraging since Halo Reach.
A quit in ranked should just count as a loss and demote your rank so you eventually you get squared up with bronze noobies.
Sidenote. OP you need to chill.

No.
Sure you have you objective games. On the other hand Halo, especially competitive Halo, has also been equally about slayer. Halo has also always allowed players to pick which game mode they would want to play instead of the RNG system we have in the BETA.
You need to accept these facts before you tell others that they should not play Halo, because right now you sound like you have no idea what you are talking about.

Take it with 343 for removing the play lists, and forcing asinine arbitrary challenges

Or just add more playlists. Make Ranked non join in progress and social with join in progress.
if you think it’s ok to afk during ranked, we consider your opinion null. Don’t que ranked if you’re not gonna play the game modes that are in ranked. Yes, if you quit, it counts as a loss… but you cannot just be unpunished for leaving because you are also affecting 3 other people.

How about they change the incentive to play games by not locking challenges to game modes or having game modes separated instead of your insane punishment ideas.
Thank you for focusing on an actual problem and not contributing to the redundant whining of players who want to play Spartan dress up.
I think your solutions are a bit draconian, but I feel you.
One of the big things about leavers right now is that you can verify if they left intentionally or accidentally. Lots of crashes going unreported or buried by the rant posts about monetization. If the ability to rejoin a dropped ranked match could be implemented like it is in Quickplay it would go a long way to keeping players around. This is standard fare for nearly all modern competitive titles, and it bewilders me that it’s not in this game.
On top of that, introducing a 120 second warmup period to allow players to establish a connection rather than drop them into a game mode not knowing what’ll happen goes a long way too. CSGO does this to ensure teams do connect to a match and dropped players are given a chance to redeem themselves, and if not the match gets cancelled before one team can take advantage of the handicap.
TLDR:
- Allow dropped players to rejoin matches
- Include a warmup timer before a match starts to ensure both teams connect.

So you only play this game for one game mode?
How about taking some personally responsibility and consider that Competitive Ranked is not a space to be pursuing casual XP gains?
That’s actually one of the bigger problems we’re facing now. The biggest issue with Ranked is (IMO) is that disconnected players cannot rejoin in progress. It’s difficult to suggest that dropped players are dropping on purpose when crashes are occurring commonly enough to be considered an issue.
I’ve played with about 3 players I know personally who did drop for various reasons (internet, game, and pc) and couldn’t reconnect to the match we queued for. Being able to rejoin is standard practice in nearly every competitive title being played today. And it needs to be included here.
Tell me you’re not a competitive gamer without telling me you’re not a competitive gamer.
Either that or you’re openly encouraging smurfs.
Bronze is not a punishment my guy, Bronze is a skill tier. If you quit so many times that you get demoted from Plat to Bronze then you’re going to ruin a lot of Bronze matches. Temp/perma bans in tandem with rank drops and jail lobbies are the best way to handle this to prevent players from cheesing the system. It’s why they are used in so many games effectively.
Which they’re going to do, right now it’s just for stability purposes. This is a temporary setback.

If you’re doing this in Ranked you’re a terrible human being.

You will be able to pick your gamemode eventually, but being in beta they’re lumping playlists together for stability purposes. Being childish will only land you in a deserved timeout.

Sadly I saw how the competitive GEARS 5 was destroyed by the “Leavers”
On an xbox you can have 10 profiles like that and people abused multi-accounts. Gears 5 went from 20M → 100k in less than 3 months and halo-infinite is “FLYING” for the same destination.
What I suggest is
2 accounts per “GAME-PASS-ULTIMATE” and each of the accounts will need a “phone-number” in order to play competitively. “You and the friend you share the gamepass with”
If you leave a “Ranked” game, you must win 2 quickplay and wait for the 30 minutes banned. Penalties will increase
If the person continues to leave the games then the xbox / pc will have a hardware ban the rest of the “season”.
It’s so amusing and sad that the same time this discussion is still active… after 6 years of H5. There ARE ways to prevent quitting… banning people is not one of them.
Either 343 was too lazy to work on them and they simply don’t care, or there was no time because of poor project managing to implement them.
Quitting is not a community problem, quitting is a design problem.
edit: the suggestions of the OP are utter BS… implement it and you can directly shut down the servers because the game will die in week.
I have to give you my phone number so you can punish me when my kid cries? yeah of course, and here are 200 bucks for some armor colors as well. LOL.
Banning is absolutely necessary at times though.
If you’re someone who’s constantly leaving matches of your own volition you shouldn’t be in that mode to begin with and the game is enforcing that. Throwers, team killers, cheaters, AFK-ers are all player types who need to be taken seriously and punished accordingly. It might not make them happy or be the politically correct thing to do, but it’s clear that in the mode offering a serious outlet for serious players, they’re not taking things very seriously at all.
That being said, the current system is also not receptive to the idea that leavers (for a multitude of reasons primarily being beta/instability related) aren’t always leaving intentionally. I’d wager that about 60% of them are accidental or out of the players’ control, and many of them would like a way to reconnect. I don’t think you’d see as many 3v4 matches popping up if this was rectified.

It shows that you haven’t played competitive FPS in the last few years?
The phone-numbers used to register your account so you can access competitive. They send you a text with a code and that enables your account. This system is used to avoid “smurfs” or “leavers” “trolls” in other titles, even CoD-Warzone has it.
Do not think that 343 is going to be calling you at home to scold you because you left a game / facepalm

What fo you achieve by banning people? Decreasing the player base, you still have 3:4 games, you encourage AFK…
we all know tha ban system worked great in h5, right?^^
For now, just use the feedback system. Hopefully modes are coming. Halo 5 had a good amount and loved the weekly rotating option as well.
