My 3rd tier of Captain begins and I've once again got that mountain climbing feeling.

The temporary ban on quitters has produced a new annoyance..................Betrayal Sprees. Players who don't want to get banned but instead turn on their teammates, hoping to provoke a boot from the game. I noticed this happening a few times last week, but it's happening with a great deal more frequency now. I saw a team just cutting into each other after a match wasn't going well for them. My team just looked on and was like "WTF?" And then I saw it happen a few more times, and then again and again. This of course leaves just one player left........the one who couldn't boot himself! LOL!

Hell I've wanted to quit before Infection and Rally games, but it's just such bad form. I really don't understand it either, even if you lose the match still rewards you with cRs. Why not just slog it out and finish the game?

It's not half as bad as WO Grade 3. Well, I guess technically it's more than half as bad, but it's still not that bad and it goes quickly! I haven't been able to play nearly as much this week, and I missed some challenges, but I'm still almost through it anyway! If I do play tonight, I should be Major by tomorrow.

OK, so we may need to plan this some. But I say we make this happen in the next month or so. Are people game to this idea?

A Saturday night works for me most weeks if it is later. Sundays during the day as well.
I'm game. 3am on Saturday might be a bit of a stretch though. Perhaps a weekend afternoon is doable for people both sides of the atlantic? We could steal the humpday template that Bungie use. Three games etc. Someone nice can write it up :)

Blimey, that sounds annoying. Not encountered it myself. I would have thought the matchmaking bans apply to serial betrayers as well as quitters. If not, I hope that is implemented in short order to stamp that out.

I got left on my own in an Invasion game as a Spartan. The Elites then decided to spawn camp the single spartan spawn and have a "gangbang" as they put it. Bloody annoying because they were giving it johnny big bollocks over voice chat despite it being six to bloody one. It didn't occur to me to just quit because I still had Halo 3 in the back of mind with the EXP penalties. I tried to use Evade and managed to get a couple of sticks but ended up with 25 deaths.

I wish there was a selection of spawns and/or at least an option to spawn with a sword in these circumstances. It would have made a much more interesting file share video. I left them bad feedback largely because they were being dicks, but they also didn't stick around to play me again with team mates!

I was wondering if the temp bans even worked. I've still encountered plenty of quitters.

I think when I read about it they need to build up the networking profile first to account for people with bad connections. That seemed to take me a lot of games, at least 50. Then the longer bans only kick in for repeat offenders.

In my experience there has been less quitters than Halo 3 so far. I can think of a few games where the odd person has quit but literally only 2 so far where there was a lot of quitting or it really affected the game. I play a lot of Big Team mind so it might just feel less.

Today's challenges are over 5000 cR but I can't play tonight. That alone would nearly see me into WO3. Rubbish!

Yeah, I've had a few games where everyone but me quits on my team. I take a bit of pride just TRYING to go down swinging. I don't quit unless there is an emergency. That whole betrayal boot tactic seems like it will backfire eventually, plus you loose points for killing teammates.

Seriously... What compels these folks to quit? Is it borne of some weird fear that their e-peen will shrink by adding another loss to their record or something? Honestly, I'd rather get the points/creds for completing a match while getting slaughtered than quit.

And PS3 comment really ? yes because i was hoping that it would make it to the ps3...

I see this place has not changed, your opinion overides others, we cant touch "360" games and hate them because that makes us fanboys and all that shit, let alone i did not even say i hated it just said it was "meh", not my bad the game played like a ODST/Halo:CE hybrid

I would quote you people but your just not worth that much effort..search the original comments yourselfs if your sad enough.

Nah, you could even make a video via Bungie Pro and link it in your sig about how you beat the mods.

But seriously, who said you guys have any chance of winning???

Why does there have to be stakes? We can play for fun, right? Or maybe there should be STEAKS!

If Forumites Lose: Tinks gets a 2 week ban.

If Mods Lose: Tinkers get a 2 day ban.

Wow, I am great odds maker :P

We could play "Sigs." Losing squad takes on a Pwn'd tag with a link to the most humbling of the matches. Something like:

"Team Gamersyde was owned by Tinks, blmbox, Ronsauce, Op, Frozpot, and My Little Pony. Hail to the kings!"

We could even post the match ...

We need to schedule a time. Something about mods being in another country (I thought only American's mattered?) and needing to schedule something.

Maybe next Sunday, middle of the day PST? Like 3pm PST?

Who could be there. That is the only non-evening I could make it.
