Subject: So, this just happened to me

Just finished a BTB game where all of my team quit about 4/5 minutes in.

Here's the game; http://www.bungie.net/stats/reach/gamestats.aspx?gameid=87245 6583&player=IslamRbad

So 8 v 1, we had DMR starts, but a DMR can't do much vs. 2 wraiths, 2 snipers, 2 warthogs, a ghost and a revenant, which got my thinking... Wouldn't it be awesome if you could spawn with power weapons if your team had significantly less players?

Let's say it's 4 v 8, start giving people the option to spawn with grenade launchers/concussion rifles/that alien piss rifle thingy (I forget the name, the yellow beam one) and then if it goes down to 3 v 8 give us lasers, rockets and snipers, make the game fair.

What would the community think about that?

Quitting in btb is normal sadly.

whats wrong with this

That's what my point's all about Nephilim, instead of having to lose & get your K/D ruined because your team quit you could go on to win.

But then there would be an advantge to being down 5 players.

I would fel better about my chances of winning if i started with a sniper on a BTB map with 8 targets to kill.

also it may not help too much and would probably end up just restocking the enemies ammo supply as they could outnumber people who cant effectivly use said power weapons

Happiness is a warm gun

or they could have just had created quitter profiling, so if you never quit you'll always be put with other people who 'Never quit'. And if your a constant quitter, you'll be put with other people who 'Constantly quit'

Simple, and solves a lot of problems

Or, instead of completely altering how the game already plays to fix one unfortunate situation, you could just quit instead when you are down 8vless-than-5...

Invansion slayer already has a version of this. I think the closest they could make to your suggestion would be a fiesta btb.
