XP boosts for Firefight do not count in JIP

343 u need to fix that. Every time I put on a boost in JIP, I get no credit for boosts. Yes it’s true, I’m at the top again with 14 boss kills carrying my teammates while they only have 4 boss kills…and I get no credit for all that time spent in 1 game…

What is JIP? There should be a wikia for obscure acronyms.

Holy -Yoink-, Join In Progress, I had no idea.

When you are using an XP / RP boost, you must give it some time for it to “settle in”. Using one at the last moment may not reward you with the bonuses.

Don’t you get that card back after a game or so if you’ve been JIP’d?

I don’t know, I shouldn’t have to see if I get Jip, because I don’t know when I’m being put into the middle of a game. It looks just like a normal start up. I’ll have to really watch my boosts then and see if I loose any.

Wait until you see the countdown. If there is no countdown then it is JIP

Yeah, you do get it back.

I think it also applies to RP boosts. I think I’ve used a few RP Jackpots only for them to not actually do anything afterward. Not entirely sure.

Damn well then should let Xp count during JIp, what’s the point of sitting though a 15min+ game and only getting about 5000… it’s stupid lol.

lol.

I’ve picked a boost with enough time before the match begins and if it turns out to be a JIP, the boost won’t count and you will still have it in your collection. But you only find out once the match is over. Since this bothers me a lot, and if I decide to stay in the match, I just won’t use high end req.s or use req.s I normally don’t use much. I know it’s not fair to my team mates, but it’s either that or I quit the match and have it count as a DNF on my record. I refuse to use my best req.s if I won’t get the possible points I could get by using them. The DNF will happen even if I turn off my console. It’s not cool to be forced into a losing game, but on the other hand I once got a victory without firing a shot. I guess the only way to stop the JIP’s is if 343 eliminates the Leave Game option. I’d rather wait for a while than get stuck with a JIP.

I’ve noticed this. It gets really annoying that I equip a boost and don’t get the boost’s reward. Only happens with JIP, like you said.
