So you can banned for quitting in a game... that has join in progress?

what.
Exactly what I was thinking.

  • 12.16.2012 1:34 PM PDT

Donuts > all other food

Wow, that's a pretty stupid thing to do with join in progress already in place.

Relax, they aren't all pony related.

I like how he says everybody hated Reach's quit-ban system so it should have been removed...

...without considering the ones hating it are the ones being banned.

If a person quits, not only is that person being punished for quitting your team, but he is also being replaced with someone. So everything ends up well, you aren't at a disadvantage for losing a teammate, and the dick who quit is being rightfully punished.
Why does there need to be punishments for quitting when someone else will take that empty spot?

Because your team is weaker than the other for a short time, and uhh I don't know. Can't say I understand that decision.
The fact that the spot/s may fill is not a garuntee. Only about half my games have ever had any spots fill back up, and even then more people quit. Usually it is when the teams are lopsided like 5v1 that fills the fastest, which is good. Most of the time when someone on my or the enemy team quits and it is only slightly lopsided the spots tend not to fill at all.

So much wow in this thread. JIP is to benefit the people who get quitted on, not the quitters.
Join in Progress enables people to quit without feeling guilt, "because someone will just clean up my mess for me."

Solution: Don't quit.

I change shapes just to hide in this place but im still im still an animal...

No no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no...

Friendly fire and quit bans were why i despised bungie so much, both should be obliterated from games forever.

I think 343 needs to stop being lil -blam!-es and start doing things their own way instead of trying to replicate every little thing Bungie has done. Then maybe we'll get some Halo games that compete with the older ones.

I doubt joining a loosing team in a game is a good excuse to quit, rage, and then blame 343 over. If one was to join a game on a loosing team and the team is not losing substantially -and the spots tend to fill more often than not, which many of you complaining about JIP and Quit-Ban seem to imply- then isn't there a good chance with your amazing skills -you do blame the team and not yourselves after all- that you would be able to catch up, if not win?

Even so, if the turn of events threw you into such a lopsided game because your team was so outnumbered that they were loosing to the point of no catching up, then doesn't that pay ode to the inefficiency of the JIP system you imply is enough in standalone; to not have to need the Quit-Ban system?

Albeit, let's give the JIP that great efficiency. Then shouldn't the team have been filled before you got there? Shouldn't your team have had near equal fighting chance because, according to you, the JIP system alone is enough not to need the Quit-Ban system? Since that's the case, why was the team so lopsided when you joined? Could it be that more people quit, in all probability, without consequence of the also inefficient Quit-Ban system you seem to imply is acting too efficiently? I mean why wouldn't it be efficient? The rate of complaints about it leads me to believe you get banned for quitting just one game... don't you? So what is it then? Are you quitting frequently thereby underlining the need of the Quit-Ban system?

Okay, so you are. Why are you quitting frequently then? Is it because you, with your superior team skills, could not lead your team to victory? Could you not match the coordinative abilities of the enemy team even with the allies you've been so unjustly thrust into battle with? If not, then was it because your team (and you) just wasn't enough to match or overtake the enemy (and wouldn't that be a fair loss anyway?) If not that, then is it because you were still unbalanced or loosing by such a major landslide that you couldn't catch up (also paying tribute to the inefficiency of the JIP system you claim is enough by itself)? And if you did win, then why are you complaining? Because it is hard? Weren't you fighting for competitive play brought on by a ranking system too?

Am I the only one who sees this? (Rhetorical)

I was surprised to see this too, especially as they made such a big deal out of JIP and how quitting wouldn't be an issue anymore.

No point in putting something funny, clever or informative here. Most probably im going to get perma-banned anyway.

Yet another bad move by the morons at 343.

This. Come on guys, seriously. Are you really acting shocked that 343i is showing their incompetence?

Posted by: PhyscoRaiderS97
C'mon, its 343i. Don't act like they let you down, they never had us in the beginning.


So... much... Bungie... fandboyism...
Except that he's right. Stop dickriding 343 and face it, Halo 4 failed miserably.


I love it. So for all I care it won.

But cry all you want.

Lol, he HAD to have been banned for that post.


He's not banned and he probably won't be banned. You see, even though it's 343's website, they don't look and communicate there. They go to NeoGAF instead or the Halo Council forums to communicate.

They are a piss poor company and they know they messed up big time, they don't want to communicate with the side of the community that hates them, which is the Waypoint forums.

lol@people saying "Don't quit."

Then what the hell was the point of JIP then?

To prevent you from quitting, because of the fear of getting a JIP game.

  • 12.16.2012 2:19 PM PDT

That's stupid.

Then don't quit, you have to expect to run into bad players from time to time and you just gotta rough it out.. Just use a camo class until some good players join and turn the tides. IMO the only reasonable time to quit is if a game is severely laggy. I never quit games I think I quit 1 game in Halo 4 and in Halo 3 I only quit about 70 games out of 6000 games played.

What if you get a JIP game and you're down 500+ points? You gotta rough it out?

I fail to see your logic on "rough it out". If I have crap teammates, it's not my problem, I'm quitting. If I am losing by X number of points from a JIP game, then I'm quitting.

You should at least be warned about quitting games before being banned outright.
