I don't understand you people at all. (Destiny)

Yes, in a perfect world, Join-in-progress would solve the issue of people quitting, because it can just bring in new people to fill those gaps.

But that's not how it works in practice.

Every single time I've seen someone on the opposing team quit during a match while my team is winning, the following happens:

Bob_7 has joined Bravo.
Bob_7 has left the game.
Frank1991 has joined Bravo.
Frank1991 has left the game.
Bill_99 has joined Bravo.
Bill_99 has left the game.

The net effect being that the team is always a man down, especially since it takes 1-2 minutes for those players to actually spawn in once they join.

People like Raga and myself HATE being joined into losing games. We didn't sign up for that. We want a fair fight. And based on my personal experiences, I think we're the majority.

Capture All Zones!
Bob_7 has left the game.
Frank1991 has left the game.
Bill_99 has left the game.

How are you expecting to get a fair fight at this point WITHOUT join-in-progress?

Depends.

If it's my team, That's not a fair fight. I leave, and all I lose is the time it took to matchmake. Sure I could get a medallion/marks/rewards, but the price of spending 8-10 minutes getting spawnkilled isn't worth that to me.

Otherwise, my team steamrolls and we get an easy win.
