They should just make an HLG playlist then you guys can hide against each other and see how much fun it is.

It's unbearable to repeatedly play games where half or more than half of the opposite team members quit the game.
Many times they quit after they see a full party, most of the times they quit after they notice they're getting stomped.

Some games we played earlier:
One
Two
Three
Four
Five
Six
As you can see, quitters everywhere. Today we played a total of 10 games, of which only 2 didn't have quitters.
This gets annoying and boring for both sides.

What's your opinion?

The quit ban is fine as it is, and can be pretty harsh. Just not for everyone.

For those who do quit often, the ban can be extended to longer periods of time. Some for days, some weeks, and even a month.

Sorry you weren't able to completely stomp your randoms into total oblivion.

Your presence here is quite unneeded. Begone you!!!

Don't blame the quitters. Blame Bungie for creating a matchmaking system with no trueskill and matching randoms vs full parties

  • 11.05.2011 8:42 PM PDT

It's pretty severe when the message "you have quit too many games recently.." pops up in the middle of a match and you have to dismiss it before you can start shooting again.

It's fine.

I like turtles.

God, you have the most disgusting coups on the site, seriously.

OT: The quit ban is a joke. But, they cant give you 30 min ban just for quitting. Maybe a credit penalty? But for the ban to work the player must first give a -blam!- about it. Which is obviously not the case.

But we did stomp them into total oblivion. One guy matched us twice and ragequitted both times.
Their destiny to be stomped doesn't change, but at least it gets a bit interesting if you're facing 4 opponents instead of destroying just 1 or 2.

What? Where is the logic in that?
Bungie's fault for people quitting?

I suppose it's Bungie fault for player's poor connection, too?

  • 11.05.2011 8:46 PM PDT

I matched you guys the other day in Slayer and two of my teams had .5 K/Ds. (No exaggeration) My one decent team-mate had a K/D of 1.02. -_____-

You best believe I was quitting.

But I very rarely quit.

Anyone who claims the AR takes skill ought to shoot himself in the head. Preferably with the AR because they'll most likely miss with any other weapon.

I sort've agree with this. The randoms wouldn't be getting spawn-trapped if the game didn't match them with you. It's Reach's fault for having a terrible system. Still, I think the penalty could be worse. However, people quitting out wouldn't even be an issue if the system did it's job in the first place.

That's good logic right there.
Bungie made a loose trueskill system that matches good players with bad players.
Bad players don't want to get stomped, so they quit.

Not an hard concept to grasp.

Why not match ppl with relative K/Ds up with each other.

Catharsis?!

No, it's too simple.

Forgot to mention that players can't take a loss with stride and just....well.....quit. No honor in FPS anymore

Trueskill system works fine, it's just way too loose right now.
In Arena it works well, so it could work in every playlist as well.

That'd be hilarious. So many people would quit out against me to preserve their k/ds.

"We live in a special time; the only time where we can observationally verify that we live in a very special time" - Lawrence Krauss.

I was a finalist :P

My proposition (occurs in the space of 24 hours):

Quit up to 2 times and that is fine (sometimes things come up/happen)
After the third quit, the ban is set (10 minutes).
Each quit after that increases the quit ban by 10 minutes.
Quit 10 times and you receive a one day matchmaking ban.

Nope, I'll try my heart out with my LEGEND shotgun.

I actually agree with the guy who said something about matching K/D spreads.

There should be a bracket for various different K/Ds. People in the same bracket get matched up.

No harsher ban

Just have a goddamn system where people can drop in and drop out, goddammit!

Not as smart as you think, how do you think you get a high K/D? Smashing noobs obviously. If you go against people of similar skill every single game from the start, everybody would have a low K/D, and herp derp we would be in the same game as the noobs again.

  • 11.05.2011 10:24 PM PDT

Nah, 10 minutes is fine. When you're being spawn killed or not having fun, you should be able to drop out if you please. Games with penalties are never good.

The 343 forums suck. They're full of retarded kids and mods who got butthurt in the B.net forums for being told that they're bad.

But then you ruin the fun of everybody else in the game, on both sides.
