Re: Quit bans still exist in Halo 4 people.

: A: Just random. Sometimes you play good people, sometimes bad, mostly
: average. Is it really the worst thing in the world to have to be
: challanged by playing a good player once in a blue moon?

No, but there's being challenged and there's having your butt handed to you, and what about the flip side, playing someone who's (ahem) no match for you, who you can beat without any real effort or thought?

: B: Just balance the teams after 16(or whatever) people are matched. Divide
: the teams evenly.

I'm almost certain that's what it does now. How well it works is arguable, but I'm pretty sure it tries.

: These are just off the top of my head. Both of these speed up matchmaking and
: improve the available games pool. Granted you won't have the perfect,
: Captain Boring and his Samey Train of Monotony where you play the same
: people with the same skills, same ranks, same tactics, same strategy, all
: night to the tune of non-stop 0-0 ties.

I don't have that anyway. :/

: I have some strong negative opinions on TruSkill and I know most people
: don't. I understand from a business standpoint it is the EA method of
: making something as bland as possible to please the vast majority of
: consumers. I just don't like it, actually, I absoluty HATE everything
: about TruSkill.

What are you talking about? It's to try to make sure games are fair. Again, how well it works is arguable, and I guess whether a fair fight is more fun is arguable too, but that's what it's there for.

: Again, my fault. False hope and stubberness mostly.

I've been there.
