SSFrog Posted November 23, 2012 Report Share Posted November 23, 2012 Is this supposed to be a joke? I go searching for a game, it joins me to an existing match, then not even 10 seconds later we lose. I've had it happen before where I don't even get to spawn and the game over comes as I'm third-viewing another player before I do my first spawn; Bam, Game over. Is there not some sort of snippet of code somewhere where it prevents new players from joining if the game is say... over 75% complete?! No offense, but this glitch is rather stupid. My three cents.

Dawn Wolf Posted November 23, 2012 Report Share Posted November 23, 2012 Most games I join are below 25% complete. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nick Fuller Posted November 23, 2012 Report Share Posted November 23, 2012 Happens to me time to time. I thought 343i had a barrier in place to prevent players joining after a certain point.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FaTaL Posted November 23, 2012 Report Share Posted November 23, 2012 I have never known this to happen to me or anyone else who was joining a game I was playing in, wheather it was me winning or losing. I would be kind of mad, but maybe they require you to play at least half the game for it to count as a win or loss anyway? It is something to look in to!

snqrls Posted November 23, 2012 Report Share Posted November 23, 2012 the above. most of the games i join are in the first 200 bracket and most times we manage a comeback. Of course, the fast killtimes, ordanance drops, and instant respawn help a little to ballance things out when you're under by 7 kills. It takes away from the gameplay like that though, so it'd be nice to have a bit more emphasis on map control through a 3 second spawn timer.

SkItZo1041 Posted November 23, 2012 Report Share Posted November 23, 2012 Eh, it doesn't bug me. Happens a lot and all, but whatever. I can get wins the same way, so idc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If anything, I believe that the JIP system should be tweeked so it doesn't put you in a game that's 75% from being over, even if you are winning.

LiQuid BioniX Posted November 24, 2012 Report Share Posted November 24, 2012 The system does need some tweaking, but jump-in, jump-out play is how it needs to be. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OMG Treason Posted November 24, 2012 Report Share Posted November 24, 2012 If i join a session in progress I simply just leave. Its annoying and i dont care if my W/L is cruddy.

l Xenoes l Posted November 24, 2012 Report Share Posted November 24, 2012 This is a big problem in CoD and I'm glad it doesn't happen as often in Halo 4. I've only had this happen about 5 times that I can remember. They should have a barrier keeping players from joining once a point is reached in a game whether it being remaining time or score to win.

Blake7 Posted November 24, 2012 Report Share Posted November 24, 2012 Yeah, this has happened to me a few times it's very annoying. I thought 343 had said in an interview that this wouldn't happen, you'd only join a game that had just started. :/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
