I remember when I first got into Mulitplayer games, specifically Gears of War 3, I quit a few times and was noticing I was getting hit with XP penalties. It did have an impact on me quitting. Not sure if it would so that is the question. almost 75 % of the matches I play somebody on one of the teams quit. I would really like to see XP and RP penalties. would it matter? Would it make people permanently leave the game? I actually think this would be better than bans. As bans they simply go play another game, they may come back to Halo they may not. So many players make a big deal about XP levels and such I actually think it MIGHT be more effective. What do you guys think?
The probe with this is 343 would need to distinguish the quitters and dashboarders from the people who get lagged out, otherwise those with a poor connections or those suffering from the hamster powered servers at 343 would be punished for something that isn’t entirely under their control.
You know what would be an interesting thing to have, which probably isn’t possible at all. But, when a player leaves the game, the other players that play it out til the end should get the XP and the RP the quitter earned, evenly distributed between the players who stayed.

This is definitely better. I sometimes just have stuff to do and have to leave but often try to put in some kills or at least a flag or stronghold grab before I leave, but then, well…

Agreed, and im sure that’s something 343 isn’t going to put much if any time into for now anyways but then again who knows.
Better than that make it cost rp to start a match and at the end you get it back. Free entry if you don’t have enough rp.
I think RP deduction would be a good one too. Hit 'em right in the pocketbook.
i don’t think it would be that hard to determine.
when you go to the start menu and choose leave game, add a window that says “This is your _____ time leaving a game in this months season. There is a 1000 XP penalty for leaving this game. Do you still want to leave?”
I also think that number of XP points should increase each time. Id also like to see it spread among the remaining teammates once someone leaves.
I like this idea for habitual quitters, or those that habitually lose connection. I have over 1800 matches played and been disconnected maybe 7 times, and one of those was 100% my ISP, yet 99%of those matches have had quitters. Quitting penalties need to increase.
Xp doesnt really mean anything in this game though. Youre never going to stop them. It sucks but its true.
