Why leave a ranked game?

I’ve been lagging out a lot. Sorry if I made someone think I left

Challenges can be done across all game modes, not just limited to ranked.

Anyways no point in arguing. After a certain amount of quits in ranked they ban you for the rest of the season, rightfully so. If you care so much about challenges, do it in quick play where wins don’t matter.

Everyone’s in it for their own enjoyment, I can be straight up and say if I wasn’t getting what I want to play I’ll leave as well. That’s the consequences of a pointless playlist that mixes stuff people don’t want to play. Should’nt be forced to waste 20 minutes if someone doesn’t like CTF and if people’s enjoyment is ruined they should ask 343 to fix that IE more playlists that give people what they want

Well couple of things.

  1. Because of the way it’s set up, if I have a positive k/d and my team just ain’t trying I’ll leave because it won’t derank me. Get into another game where the teammates are maybe trying and using mics. There’s no point in wasting my time on a lost cause if I’m not gonna get penalized for leaving as long as I was performing well.

  2. They really can’t implement a hard quitting penalty because the game crashes routinely. It’s just unfair. I’ve crashed out of like 10 ranked games.

If they leave at the very start then they are probably a pc player who’s game crashed. I have seen a couple of rage quitters who know they are doing bad or are gonna lose and quit. I doubt any of the diamond players I play with are going out of their way for challenges or quitting based on game mode. Part of achieving a high rank is you have to be good at every gamemode in the playlist so I disagree with people saying you should be able to select game mode in ranked. They should definitely have that feature in social but not ranked.

Yeah I also support objective modes in ranked cause of that logic. You should be able to perform in all game modes. The only problem rn is there’s people in Diamond and Onyx that really shouldn’t be there. Dead silent, don’t play objective, and often don’t seem knowledgeable game sense-wise.

Except quick play is also ranked. There hasn’t been an unranked playlist in years. It’s not a thing.

It seems like score or objective time makes a big impact on whether you go up or down. Because there are games of oddball where I have teammates running blindly for the ball and not getting any slays. Or flipping spawns by constantly going for A and C in strongholds. Im not sure but I feel like they level up faster than the people making big plays for their team even though they are hurting the team

I Love Slayer, Odball and CFT but i exit ofet by the game because i have more more and more Crash! My Halo App crash very often during Ranked match and i lost more Points.

Okay. There are no ranks in quick play my dude. People who play ranked are aiming for diamond/onyx. I’m not talking about sbmm or hidden mmr. Don’t justify your need to quit. You screw over your teammates who want to play to win just for a stupid challenge. At least do it in quick play where it doesn’t matter

Bro what are you talking about idc about challenges I don’t play them. And it’s been proven in halo 5 that YES you do literally have a rank in social playlists. It’s just hidden. People figured this out when btb became ranked in halo 5 for a bit

Okay I don’t really care about if btb is ranked or if social is ranked. What I’m saying is don’t quit out of the official ranked playlist where it shows your rank. My point was to that guy who said he joins ranked matches and quits because of challenges.

He’s referring to SBMM which has been a thing at least post Halo 3(?) - just because you can’t see the rank in quickplay/social games doesn’t mean it doesn’t exist.

Because “Screw you, only my fun matters” is a very common mindset amongst gamers now-a-days.

Everyone knows that and I don’t care. The only real rank that matters is in the official ranked playlists. My point was for someone to join a ranked match and leave because he can’t complete his challenges shouldn’t be joining ranked in the first place. Screw over your teammates in quick play if you want stay out of ranked

I agree, challenges should be done in Quick Match and not ranked (when possible). Unfortunately Quick Match has a horrible matchmaking system where u always seen to be paired with or against a player who way outskills everybody else. This makes getting challenges extremely hard, because that player ruins it for everybody. Thats why you see players running into ranked for the challenges

I agree I’ve had more consistent matches in ranked in terms of people with similar skills placed together. My only grip is either quitting or ignoring objective for a one time challenge.

acutally No, you can’t capture the flag in slayer, also you can’t do challenges in Bot bootcamp that say "in PVP’ Oh and you can’t ‘win’ if wins don’t matter. All of these things you mention are challenges that come up…Maybe just maybe if challenges weren’t the ONLY way ot get exp this wouldn’t be an issue,

I had three ranked matches in a row last night that were started as 3v4. I sweated quite a bit too make sure my rank didn’t tank and ended up winning the slayer match, falling just a little short on the oddball match, then ctf my other two team mates quit so I hid while the other team farmed the 5 captures. After all this I don’t think my rank changed at all. I don’t think the ranking system recognized them.
After these matches I figured that was enough ranked for one day.

Don’t try to do your challenges in Ranked.
