(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); I haven't seen this posted anywhere so I thought some frequent hardcore-players might not know it yet. It's a useful & fast way to exit hardcore games with your score intact. I best add can only confirm this works on Xbox 360!

In order to leave a hardcore game swiftly & untouched, instead of going to dashboard which takes as good as a minute;


--> create a party, or if you're in one, good. stay in it.


*At any time you wish to easily leave a game

--->press the xbox button, and goto your party overview.

--->press the Y-button to change your chat channel to "party chat"

-->Repeatingly press B to return to your game


* after few seconds out of the Xbox-menu, a pop-up message will appear forcing you to choose to stay in the gametype-required gamechat, or to stay in the party chat.

---> choose to stay in the party chat or just press B when it pops up.

*Within another few seconds, you'll be kicked because of not staying in gamechat...
But you will be kicked without a Scratch!


You can do this at any time, at the beginning or ending. if you're fast you could get back to the menu before the level has even loaded up yet...so even faster than waiting for "Leave Game" :cool:

| It is also useful for getting out of host migration hang ups without having to join a game in whihc you probably have to take a negative score back to the lobby-screen ;-),

| Same is useful for escaping connections that lag you for hours before actuallly starting a game that's going to hang up anyway afterwards.

Hope this wasn't common knowledge though, but since the "dashboard method" was generally considered a glitch, I'll mention this as well.

I'm suprised no one has found how to stay in party chat during games.

shoulda said xbox -.-'
