I like it, the DMR has long range and precision.

Plus bloom lowers spamming.

My entire team quit on me in a Team Slayer game on Rebirth yesterday - one of the only maps which is so small 1 man cannot possibly do anything against 4 players. There is no single safe spawning area when you spawn in your half, and as it was a freaking ARs gametype I just kept getting DMR'd at spawn.

So I decided to HLG when I was losing 19 - 11, just to annoy them. I was hoping that one or two of them would ragequit allowing me a better shot.

I won. Final score 11 - 0. They killed themselves 19 times trying to find me. HILARIOUS. This is the true way to combat quitters.

There is basicly no punishment for quitting multiplayer games (wow 15 minutes is nothing) and they constantly ruin my games, my teammates games and the games of the people left on the other team and thats alot of people as I usually play BTB with a full party of 8 high ranked players. We destroy and they always quit.

How original ... another rage post about quitters by someone who QUITS themselves.

"We destroy and they always quit" - LOL, except sometimes its the other way around :)
Gotta love the bungie game search api.

Gotta love the fact that your a moron and had to go back 6 weeks to find 1 game I got lagged out of (not quit) when I play everday. If you see the stats no one got any kills at all

DUH ... api brings make matching results in a non sorted sequence. Most RSS or webfeeds work this way moron, but dont expect you to even start to understand this - LOL.

And how come YOU can get "lagged out" but when it happens to others YOU KNOWN that they quit?

Learn to cope like the rest of us.
Not like you loose out, there are as many games you benefit from as those you loose out from (in fact you seem to benefit more than loose) ... so yeah, annoying but so are you :)


If your so smart then you would have understood the part where it was once in 6 weeks. An occasional lag out is fine as everyone gets it.
2 of the people in that game on the other team are habitual quiiters whenever they see us so they probly caused the game to lag out before it even started or host booted our whole team either way it doesnt happen often.

You seem to fail at reading or understanding as the whole point is once people start quitting everyone loses out on both teams.

Why should anyone be subject to lag or playing on a map that they cannot stand. Technically I don't quit I dashboard... no repercussions for dashboarding. I get friggin tired of playing Sword Base and Countdown so I will dashboard on the second time through if I feel like it.

If you don't like it dashboard yourself and start another game.

Dont like lag? search good connection.
Dont like swordbase play a playlist that doesnt have it or get some friends together and out vote them simple.
I never dashboard and shouldnt be put in a position where its the better option becasue others were selfish and quit. Im already in a game and its frustrating having to find another on good connection to have a good game.

There is a reason quitting a game early is a choice for submit bad player review.

There is a new kind of f***ing AFKers on reach : the guys who put down their controler on a book or whatever and the analog stick is a bit mooved and the spartan, in game, moove a little, so he is not AFKed...

BUT FOR GOD'S SAKE !!!! Bungie is doing NOTHING !! i hate AFKers, i hate Traitors and i hate the guys camping with rocket launcher and sniper on highland... (lol)

Well, its Just a Game. If You're stuck in a Game where Its like 1 v 4 ....just Leave if you Don't want to Suffer through it all.

Don't worry OP.

Keep griefing and before long there'll be so few Aussies left to match with you might roll a team of 8 for some actual competition.

It's ironic when the most unsporting people complain about sportsmanship.

I've played with people like the OP who if they roll a team that can put up an actual fight they quit out.

I wouldn't be at all surprised if the OP and his group are host resetting to get additional vehicles and lagging people out in the process.

I don't know why the OP feels he is entitled to ruin others game experience.

A sad little boy with only his Reach stats to brag about me thinks.

FYI People have the right to leave a game if they want to, you cant tell someone they cant, FF afking is cheating, leaving a game isnt. if someone wants to leave a game then thats up to them not you.

We destroy and they always quit. Games turn into hide and seek and chasey with 8 on 2 which ruins our game and the poor bastards that dont quit. Not as bad if its flag or bomb as we can end it quickly but games of slayer when we have like 30 kills, 10 minutes left and 2 people who wont quit no matter how bad we spawn kill them. This is not fun for us or them. Please increase the punishment for habitual quitters as its ruining hundreds of games for thousand of players, probly alot more than afking.


Afk'ing is NOT ruining my game and if it was its Bungies own fault for rewarding people doing nothing.
More kills and credits for me, a distraction for my enemies/ someone else for them to go after.

I dont like them earning free credits but thats the systems fault for allowing that.

Something I posted in another thread: Bungie knowingly pay their gamers credits for doing nothing and even promote them then after 8 months decide they didnt like paying them for nothing so they demote you back to a nobody, take any money you earned (even the money earned for many hours of working), anything you bought with the money and say you can work but wont get any credits for 2 weeks.



Edit 1: Examples
It seems to be getting worse. Here's just a couple of examples from the last couple of hours:
http://www.bungie.net/Stats/Reach/GameStats.aspx?gameid=62625 3893&player=Jamage007
They all quit within a couple of minutes.

http://www.bungie.net/Stats/Reach/GameStats.aspx?gameid=62630 1274&player=Jamage007
They quit 1 by 1 until there was only 1 guy left and it was slayer so we all had to kill 1 guy until the game was over.


Edit 2: The Revenge/The Test
When we came across a few people that quit on us earlier and a habit quitter we decided to do a test and get some revengeon them so 7 of us hid while the other went to take on the other team 7v1 to see if 1 person could break a spawn trap.
With the rest of us hiding and them only taking on 1 person they didnt seem to quit.
Funny thing is the guy by himself broke the spawn trap and started killing them alot more than they were killing him.
Now one of them quits but the rest stayed.
Since our guy was doing well in a 7v1 situation we stayed hidden to see how this played out. Our Guy went 41 kills 4 deaths, broke a spawn trap and beat a team of 8 singlehandedly.

Thats proof that spawn traps can be broken so please people play on. Not everyone is as good as him but a whole team that stays should be able to do it or at least try and give us some competition.

TLDR: MM quitters are ruinng my game not FF afk'ers and all bungie care about is FF afk'ing not the real thing thats ruining games.

lol i find it funny your complaining about someone leaving when you cant run how someone wants to play the game, so what if its ruining your exp. deal with it, people quit in games omg thats a tradegy in gaming, its not gonna kill ya anymore than playing the game for hours at a time. people that quit dont think getting spawn killed over and over is fun people that quit dont think playing with bks on their team is fun, people that quit hate playing with people that dont help the team win. people that quit hate hearing people complain about quiting when everyone on halo has done it once or twice.

Stop complaining about something everyone has done before, and if you dont like it dont play MM.

15 minutes is long enough and a good punishment for quiting, since its not cheating in anyway shape or form. Just stop complaining. it really doesnt help anyone.

you should also know that the search engine for good connection doesnt always put you in a good game with a good connection. it searches for the best out of games that are already looking for players. and it selects out of how many players in the game that can connect to one host the best.

and yet quiting early as in submiting a player review doesnt work against the player youve submitted it to, submiting a player review is to avoid playing with that player again it doesnt get them banned at all. It's a little reminder to the player about his/hers in game attitude. and its not like anyone even checks it at all.

There needs to be a cR penalty of 5000 along with the quit ban.

Me and the guys I usually play with look for good teams to go against and dont quit (at least I never do and most of them dont). We usually beat other full parties and clans anyway and they all quit on us coz as soon as 1 quits the rest usually do. When we get good games with people who stay its awesome and thats what we look for but unfortunatly most people these days quit and ruin it.

No host resetting goes on and why would we boot people when quitting is what im complaining about?

I aint sad, aint no little boy and dont believe ive bragged about my stats in this topic, people are quite welcome to have a look and judge for themselves what they think of my stats, either way I dont care I play for fun and I play to win.

Exactly. FF was bad because players stayed in the game but wouldn't help and still got to collect credits. When you quit you aren't earning credits, and you can get banned.

When I was playing an Invasion (Skirmish) game, everyone on my team left except for me and two other guys. We had a whole lot of trouble because the enemies were able to get all of the territories and half-way through the match the enemies had two Banshees, a Wraith, and two ghosts swarming around our base. This is one of the few times I've ever had to resort to camping, and I was constantly receiving messages from the everyone to stop camping, but it was literally my last resort.

Please don't hype for games...
They'll just fall short of your expectations and you'll complain for months.

Make the quit ban 30 minutes and add a -50000 credit penalty. And you can go negative so if you only have 30000 credits, you now have -20000

Sounds good but maybe not so harsh 50000 is a bit much I think.

Brutes aren't monkeys, Brutes are gorillas. Humans are monkeys, and Spartans are Orangutans.

OP, HERE'S A SUGGESTION:

STOP SELECTING SWORD BASE (OR ANY OTHER INGAME CRAP MAP) AND YOU'LL SEE PEOPLE STAY.

FORGE = WIN

Yes, how can quitting in a TEAMS game be regarded as SELFISH??
