MLG got nothin' on me

i just played a game on invasion. all through the game, its been fine. one person on their team left. no big deal. on the 2nd round, we got up to phase 3, with about 20 seconds of the game left.

then the lag screen appears. 2 people left. after about 5 minutes of looking at a screen with peoples gamertags on. the game came bak on for about 2 seconds before the lag screen appeared again. this time, 3 more people on their team left, as well as a member of my team.

after another 5 minutes of staring at the screen, thanks to people quitting (with 20 seconds of the game left btw) the game finally came back on. all my team started team killing since it was 5v1. i had a sniper and i ran for the core. my team mate decides to try and team kill me. i throw a grenade at him and continue for the core. a second later, ive been booted from the game because i team killed, even though he was trying to team kill me. so at this point, there was 10 seconds of the game left, and i get booted for defending myself.

this happens to me nearly every game i play. either the full team leaves or my team has team killers. why? i waited over 10 minutes for the game to resume, just to play another 20 seconds so i could get my credits. then, with 10 seconds left, i was going for the core, which was already near the objective. and thanks to a complete -blam!- i sat bored out of my skull for 10 minutes and lost my credits which wouldve been about 4000 since i did a daily (i usually get about 2000-3000 credits anyway). and for what? some -blam!- to have about 2 seconds of fun?!

like i said, this happens nearly every game! now before you flame me and say 'play another game', ive tried playing other games, but cant find one that i like. i like reach. i like halo. i just hate the people who play reach. i apologise to anyone who reads this and who plays the game fairly instead of team killing or rage quitting. i respect anyone who can actually play the game instead of pissing off their team mates.

U MAD BRO?
Right, anyway, wait for them to betray you in future so you don't get booted, and you have a possibility of booting them.

thats just the problem the booting system in reach is biased. people can shoot you for ages and kill you slowly, then they wont get booted. its all about the ammount of damage dealt to your team mate in a certain time period. also, i just wanted to end the game because i was sat bored ou of my skull for 10 minutes thanks to the lag screen and people leaving.

You know I've noticed a trend with this booting system.

The people who get booted the most are either the perpetrators or the self-righteous revenge types.

I have no clue which is more annoying though because neither group helps the team out. I played a game of BTB the other night and managed to run into all the people who get mad about losing their precious Wraith. I betrayed a guy 3 times before I got booted =P I rarely betray and I rarely boot but I was feeling feisty (for lack of better words).

So now I get booted after the first betrayal if it occurs. That's my own fault. Maybe if everyone would stop trying to seek "righteous vengeance" and betray their teammate back, whether accidently or on purpose, all this -blam!-ing about the betrayal system would lessen. No I'm not saying that people who initially betray are in the right, but you certainly aren't either if you go to get him back.

Just my two cents, take it how you want it.

they werent being d__ks, the people who betrayed you wanted the game to last longer for more Cr. in case you didnt know longer game = more Cr. also they probably wanted some easy kills when they spawn trapped the last 2 players who didnt quit. its players like you who rush the score knowing you already won the game make players like me want who wants the game last longer to stop you from scoring.

Don't betray. If mad just annoy them until they betray you then boot them:D

I wholeheartedly agree, OP. Reach has both a -blam- host system and betrayal system. But that generalization is way too large.

UBad?

Yes. You are.

A human being is not attaining his full heights until he is educated. -Horace Mann

Plan:

1.Hit your teammate (don't kill him/her).
2.Wait for him/her to heal.
3.Hit some more.
4.Wait for teammate to kill you
5.If teammate killed you 2 times, you can boot!

its all about the ammount of damage dealt to your team mate in a certain time period.

Source? Pretty sure this isn't true.

Trust me, I hate the betrayal/boot system in Reach just as much as you do, but how is it biased?
