(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); Don't you hate it when you get on mw3 or even black ops and you select Team Deathmatch and matchmaking joins you into a lobby were the score is 1000 - 7000. I do too, so i was thinking for Black ops 2 Treyarch should add a feature that when you select find game it lets you choose whether to join the game or not if its already in progress. It would save alot of raging, i know it would be bad because people wont join matches that are 1v6 but not everyone is going to to choose not to join. This would be a game breaker for me Smile

Yes and no what if it only let you have a option on games that were down by 20 kills or more or within a few seconds of ending?

Yes, but when someone rage quits nobody will join. Therefore, if 7/12 in a game rage quit it really is shit the fact you'd have to keep going to a new lobby to find a game. Yes, I want this but No it's a bad idea.

I don't think we will ever see Treyarch do something like this because I remember someone asking Vonderhaar a similar question, and he argued it will slow the pace of the game down dramatically. Even if this feature was in Black Ops 2, we can expect every Youtube star to point it out and we'd just be back to square one again.

Of course we WANT this but it's not really possible. People rage quit way too much for this. It could be a legit reason as to lag or a lame reason like they were trying to get pistol MOABs but realized they weren't playing against a lobby full of noobs so they backed out.

Best way to avoid joining matches in progress(like most COD issues) is to PLAY IN A PARTY. Sure they will throw parties in games that are already going on but you are much less likely to join a match in progress with 5-9 players compared to just yourself or 2-3 players.

^ I wish it was that easy for me (the 6 man party each game) :fa: :fa: My PS3 broke and now I'm :fa: on my Xbox. It's gonna be a fun year for me...

Anyways,

It sounds like a great thing until you think about the negatives such as what other people are saying: the rage quitters. It wouldn't work out. Although maybe they could do a modified version of it, such as after a team gets 6500 points in TDM (or an equivalent in other game modes), they could 'lock' the lobby to prevent a user from getting a cheap loss or even a cheap win. Or instead of locking the lobby they could lock the actual win/loss. But then again, there's a lot wrong with that plan too, so I guess keeping it the way it is is what's gonna happen.

Also people sometimes rage quit AFTER games. For example maybe they play a full match but realize the other team is good or in Ground War say tdm comes up. Well most Ground War players can tell you that yoi have a chance to win domination against a good team but in tdm it is harder. That 6-20 guy that captures flags and shoots down everything in dom hurts you on tdm. So a lot of times people end up joining in progress even though they could've stayed in previous lobby.

You better ask around NGU bro. Trust me. Playing solo is no fun especially with splitscteen adding TWO worthless people at once. All the biggest things COD players whine about decrease in power dramatically when you communicate and play in parties. Some guys complain about the enemy camping, I would complain about my random teammate going 3-30 helping said camper. Get a party bro even if it is 3 of you.

I dont think they need to put in a feature, Because MW3 Already has this, but it is only effective sometimes, When you try and join a friends lobby or a game, you sometimes get the error message "Unable to Join, Game is about to End"

Treyarch need to boost this feature, if the match goes over 7000 TDM, the match should be locked and nobody should join it untill the game has ended and are in the lobby.

But this may cause matchmaking problems, so all they have to do is the games that are locked should be filtered. So when you are searching for a game, you search only for the free spaces.

Are you high?
I think if your searching for a game, it should put you into a pre-game lobby if it cannot join a pre-game lobby, it should have a time limit like 50seconds before joining an in game session to wait to join a lobby or create a new lobby.
