During a game, about 10 seconds in, a random player appears, but doesn’t show up on the scoreboard. I don’t notice him until he starts firing at me, but then I see he’s got a DMR.
And he’s doing damage. His name is in red and he shows up as an enemy. He kills me.
I respawn as a Flood, but think nothing of it. So I head out, and I kill the guy. He then respawns as a Spartan, again.
So this guy can attack BOTH teams, is not infected when killed, and doesn’t show up on the scoreboard? What the hell?
I recorded a video on my fileshare. The first few seconds are to show everyone who is in the game to begin with, and then magically another person appears on his own team. (I don’t know how to link you to my fileshare, but it’s there if you want to see.)
I figure this is just a Join In Progress glitch, but it’s a pretty serious one that should be checked out.
