Join in session is the worst part of this game hands down I can’t even count how many times it’s completely ruined the experience for me, here are some examples.
Two games ago the game started off 3v3 (CTF) which is perfectly acceptable, what’s not is what happened one minute into the game. IT GAVE THE OTHER TEAM TWO PLAYERS, we didn’t receive one the whole game! It was over as soon as they joined our team had no chance of winning a 3v5 CTF game. Why does this happen, it does all the damn time too this is just one example of this.
Games often start with insufficient player counts or unbalanced teams. The worst iv’e seen of this: A 3v1 BTB game on ragnorock, in the lobby the game started counting down with 4 players, in a BTB match! Why? Once again this is just one example it happens all the damn time! Even call of duty can do this right.
I join games where I have no hope of winning, especially regicide games. This happens way to often, I’d say half the time I search the first game I join is already half done.
This system is broken beyond my wildest dreams, this is one of things you should have brought back from reach, along with it’s menus and party system.
i sorta agree
my compromise would be for them to allow players to join a game that has already started ONLY if it will make the teams have balanced players and only for the first few minutes of the game.
who likes joining a game with 45 seconds left and your team is losing by 500 pts?
I remember during Machinima lives Early Access livestream, Lester and Bravo went into a game already in progress and turned it around and won. I’ve won a couple games joining into them. I don’t see what the big deal is.
Ya this part of the matchmaking system is really just luck on what you get when going in games. Overall I don’t see it as a big problem compared to how halo games use to be when everytime somebody left there was a connection issue, thank god it doesn’t happen as much anymore.
I’ve mostly won the games I’ve got into being even or still outnumbered so…ya.
I think they should have this in Social playlists and not in Ranked playlists. Unfortunately there isn’t that differentiation as of right now, so they can’t do it.
