View Full Version : Randoms on Reach

I swear, more people quit in Reach than they did in H3. I can't run 3's without our random quitting out after the other team gets a couple points or a flag capture up on us. Do i just have bad luck or is it just that people see it impossible to come back on Reach?

It's not just you. Since Halo Reach is an easier game, people THINK they can play MLG, but they quit out all the time until they get easy people to face against.

Ya. I always have a 3v4 or a 1v4 on my hands at least 4 or 5 times a day. People need to learn!

Until the day that TLN and pros rule the MLG playlist, it will most likely be like this till the next halo game.

This is because there is no ranking system. People have nothing to fear if they quit (besides a 15 minute ban, oh no!) so they quit without really caring. And when someone quits out in MLG, that team is screwed. They basically can't win. This is why we need a ranking system.

It would be nice if bungie mad a "special quit ban" for the MLG play list like 2 quit outs in the MLG play list bans you for 20-30 min. To bad the general reach community would freak out even though it would not effect them as much as it would have a positive effect on the MLG community. They could even add a special little warning pop up like they have for arena that warns the player of the special quitting rules in the MLG play list.

Obviously, this is all alleviated by going in with a TO4, which is easier said than done sometimes. Honestly, this quitting issue, combined with the fact that going in alone or with one or two almost always ends up with a match against a team of four. Which rarely ends well. MLG quite simply is a playlist relegated to a TO4 playlist. It's not much fun otherwise.

I haven't really had that issue and I go in by myself most of the time. In Halo 3 I felt like it was mostly cheaters at the higher level like people who host boot. Then again my brother played Halo 3 more than I did. In Reach for the most part if someone quits it's like "oh shit I gotta go sorry guys" and not "you guys are garbage so I'm quitting" However I haven't played Reach in few weeks.

If I don't have a TO4, I won't play MLG.

its definately not you, my teammates always quit for no reason, some times even when we are up
If I don't have a TO4, I won't play MLG.
I'm pretty much the same way :D

i think its bad too when you have a team of 4 and are trying to actually have competition and some one on the other team quits out as soon as you get your first flag cap. that gets real annoying too

Honestly I am not good at Halo like i mean im not -20 bad but i am deff not good , I like watching pros play because i know its something I can never ever do lol. But I do play the MLG playlist just because the settings are 1000x better than the normal game type settings. I mean I am bad lol, also sometimes my team is bad but w/e. I have good games but lately been shit. Problem I have with playlist right now is how many idiots do I have to try and kill that just spring and beat down like seriously i mean its not hard to shot someone but when they are just spinning around in circles beating you down it makes me wanna freak, like i cant count how many times i see someone and start to shoot and they are just sprinting at me and then just jump and sping around beating me down its stupid yes it makes me look embrassed but its hard to kill someone whos like right next to you just spinning around mashing the B ( for me ) button ! anyways thats my 2 cents

I had the entire other team quit 2 games in a row yesterday. It was really dumb and we were not winning by much. It makes the game really pointless when people quit for no apparent reasons. The only times i ever quit are when someone on my team quits and its hopeless or when the connection is so bad its imbossible to play normal on.

Stop complaining finding a fourth isn't that hard and at least you are not getting betrayed or team killed like mlg matchmaking halo 3. It's a new game with a mlg playlist meant with no rank. If their was a rank system you would just be getting team killed by some no-life
It would be nice if bungie mad a "special quit ban" for the MLG play list like 2 quit outs in the MLG play list bans you for 20-30 min. To bad the general reach community would freak out even though it would not effect them as much as it would have a positive effect on the MLG community.

They will just AFK then...
It's irritating cause we've heard it all before...but if you want to run MLG run in fours...otherwise don't take it seriously...it will just frustrate you...

I really thought the "punishments" by Bungie for quitting were going to solve this for the most part but I guess not. I never quit out no matter how bad it gets. Wish everyone else would do the same. It's really frustrating when someone quits after dying like 4 times.

you now what else is awesome , when your whole team quits and everyone minus Krillin on the other team is using rockets to kill me seriously everyone on your team Krillin was using rockets >.< ! You said you would not kill me either than you sniped me - whats up with that ;) ! You like that i came back from trash talking the one guy who killed me three times to see you coming towards me and i was like here we go and killed you lol!
To a certain someone on Krillins team last game : "Really 4v1 and you use rocks on me three times in a row... wow I wish I was as good as you" . His message back : " shut the F*** up you noob you shoulda rage quited with the rest of your team" lolololololol such bad players , rage quit i was not raging it was just 4v1 and you were using the most Powerful weapon on the map when I had just my DMR and there were 3 teamates with you holding the map down >.>
lol imp3ened ! :)
Reach has true skill but when you search for games without the close to skill range option thing on it will just find anyone. If you use the close skill range you get better teammates and normally they wont quit. Not many people know this but it helps alot :)

I was only going to stop killing you because I thought you were going to stay AFC. And when you surprised me I was coming to dance with you :(
Selecting the skill option can also work. It doesn't work as well as a To4, but it is much better than the alternative.
It is terrible though. There aren't enough hours in the day to avoid all the quitters in the MLG playlist. It's much more relaxing now that the games aren't ranked though lol

I'll have to give this a try.

They need to give more credits for winning a game or even just staying in the game when your teammate quits.

I wish we had a individual skill ranking system like they sorta did in arena so the quitters will have a low rank and wont get matched up with people who actually try and play instead of rage quitting.

If I don't have a TO4, I won't play MLG.
I can't even get a to4 to play Social Slayer with, much less MLG.
(I know that's not what it's called in Reach, but meh, that's what it is.)

Unless the people you play against are a team of sorts, they will quit out in the first minute if your opening is decent. Too many people just give up. I've played games where we were down by 15 kills or 4-0 in a CTF game just to come back and win. Its actually very satisfying to pull a comeback like that.
We need a 1-50 ranking system and a higher penalty for quitting in mlg. Mlg can bungie to make a playlist for them but not change anything other than the settings to make it more competative? It doesn't make sense
mrkillboy
03-02-2011, 03:36 PM
Why would they make a higher penalty for quitting MLG? You act like Bungie has to have an MLG playlist. You also act like Reach is MLG. Bungie isn't going to change anything, if you keep making threads about it on MLGpro.com and here. If you have a real problem go to bungie.net and stop making the same old thread about Reach or players on it.
