How do you guys handle playing other multiplayer games?
Its 2015 Halo is the only Multiplayer game where you get punished for quitting for whatever reason…At least that I can think of…
I don’t quit out of games but I never complain when I lose a teammate that wanted to leave they have every right to play the game the way they want to…
In CoD, Battlefield, Battlefront etc you can quit over and over with no punishment and people who play those games NEVER complain about quitters…
Why is this complaint seemingly exclusive to Halo?

You should start to understand why it is frustrating. If we had JIP, and we could get people to backfill quickly, it wouldn’t be so bad. However, the lack of JIP with small teams just perpetuates a miserable experience if you have a teammate or two bail on you. Yes, people can do whatever they want, but just like I wouldn’t punch an old lady and be a jerk, people in Arena shouldn’t be jerks and bail on their teammates…
Halo is a tougher game where you really have to earn your kills. Losing a player is much worse in Halo than games like COD because kills come easy in that game.

This. Halo is much different than those other games. Losing 1 player takes away 1/4 of your teams firepower
First off come on man … Why you comparing COD to Halo ? You can kill someone in like 1 second with any weapon ; just because you got off a shot first or snuck up on them in COD. You can’t do that in halo , you creep up on the wrong person they gonna turn around and make you look stupid. And make you lick there balls.
As far a quitting goes halo is very competitive and hard … Sometimes you can get 20 kills on your own with a 3 man team and still lose because the other team is balanced and know what they doing. How frustrating is it to lose a match by 5 or 6 points and then see at the end of a game you lost a man … And coulda won had he stayed. People hate quitters … If your team is losing … Take the loss and do better next time. If you quit you gonna get a DNF, which is the same as losing… I what did you avoid. Kids today just want everything there way right now all the time … Life don’t work that way son. If you go outside and play basketball or football or soccer with some homies and you walk off the field in the middle of the game because your team is losin … Do you think anyone is ever gonna want to play with you again? Wouldn’t you feel bad that your friends think that you are a coward and won’t have their back and now they don’t want to be associated with you. Life has consequences son… Get used to it… The sucking has only just started!!!
Quitting on purpose is both selfish and un sportsman like. You leaving the game impacts the chances of the teammates you leave behind and in the end makes the match an unenjoyable experience and a waste of time. There’s no need for it.
The only reason why quitting should be allowed are
Disconnect - Enemy team are cheating in some form - An actual Emergency (Dinner doesn’t count)

This man gets it, a scholar and a gentleman…playing board or card games with some friends and you just walk away because you’re having a bad game?..how long you going to have friends who want to hang?..sometimes you just got to take a beating to get better…sometimes you have to accept that there are people out there who are better than you…just try and learn from them

I don’t like it when players quit from BF4, but it’s not so bad when you lose 1 or 2 from 12, 32 or 64, it’s also got to do with jip, games like CSGO have quit bans, and they are or were some of the most severe bans out there, when Doom arrives this year I would expect it to have bans too.
Well because in Arena the spots aren’t filled after a quitter leaves, all of those other games have join in progress so empty spots are quickly filled and you never notice. In Halo when you get a few quitters you’re instantly destroyed because you’re outnumbered.

As i know Halo is the only one wehre Ranking is not EXP based,the ranking is about winning games,you can go alot of up and down between ranks.
That means JIP players could join an losing game and take that loss,so there is no JIP in ranked games,imagine thos stat whores would rip of this forum because of JIP(Join in Progress).
And yeah any game i play,i stay in most cases until finishing line,you can be sure if i Quit a game i have a reason and still it hurts me leaving comrades on their own.
Some folks just Quit because they don’t like the map/mode whatever,this is no reason.
Something in RL needs attention is almost the only reason.

Nope, Halo has been turned into whoever shoots first generally wins. As long as you don’t walk into a team and get team shot.
The number of games I’ve had tonight (and pretty much any other night) where we have lost because we’ve got an unranked low CSR player who has gone 1-15.
It would have been better for that player to leave the game.
Games are generally uneven, certainly below Platinum.
Sort out the match making so that Golds play Golds, Platinum v Platinum and you might have a point.
343 have made a ranking system which is meant to be competitive, but I’m finding it anything but. Add to this the server issue after 8 PM for European players. I played four games after 8 PM before I had to stop, My highest number of kills was six in those four games. Compared to around 15 for the games I played around 5/6 o’clock. I should have pulled out of those games, as its not fair on my team mates. How dumb is it when Europeans can’t compete after 8 PM because of latency on American servers.
So fix the servers and sort the match making so its more even, and you can then do what you link with quitters, until then, stop having a go at the quitters.

With the crappy servers, you cannot say that the other team is better. I had four games after eight o’clock tonight and the latency was appalling.
We lost some by low margins, and believe me, it wasn’t because the other team was better.
The adding of one true unranked player can unbalance a whole game of Slayer. (as the player goes 1-15).
How is this the rest of the teams fault. Being that the whole ethos is now W/L. This is just daft.
Assume they were disconnected, instead of them quitting. Most of my friends are lagging out of servers, yet people are claiming they quit. Think guys…It’s post X-mas and Halo’s servers are going H.A.M. trying to handle the traffic. Not everyone is a quitter.
Quitting bans should be in all multiplayer games. I know it’s a wonderful fantasy to think ones time is more important or precious than others so quitting should be allowed but the reality is in online gaming there’s more than just you; the special, fragile, and pretty little snow flake who gets discouraged and grumpy in their diapers because they didn’t get the power weapon or they view the odds they face as insurmountable and give up on the players they share a community with.
I don’t see the purpose of not having JIP. There is always going to be quitters, Xbox Live isn’t just a utopian online society where people cancel out their family lunch because they nearly got to 45 points. People aren’t going to not leave when it starts raining and the dog is outside. People aren’t going to keep playing a game just because it annoys you.
JIP, for the first 5mins of the game should be a mandatory staple in any multiplayer game with matchmaking. I don’t care if it’s doom or World of Warcraft, early game JIP prevents these games from -Yoink!- you off and -Yoink!- the average gamer off.
