Stupid Patch! Now you get a loss when you back out before you spawn.

If you are like me and Join games alone, then you know there are several times where you are thrown into a game where your team is is losing to the point where its impossible to come back. But I was glad to see that you wouldnt have to take a loss for it if you backed out before you spawn in(I was so happy when I found this out). Today I join a ground war game losing 130-27 so I back out right away to avoid frustration and the unearned loss. So I back out and what do I see, a loss in my barrecks for that game. I was on a 53 win streak too.
Why would they change something that for the past 3 years, players have been asking for. Whats wrong with being able to back out before you spawn without any penalty toward your stats. I hope the mods read this and reconsider what they have done.
Also BTW, I was thrown into a super speed lobby today. I down know if it was just that game being glitchy or what but everything was about 5x faster. I hope its not a sign of whats to come in the near future.

that is stat boosting. dont comend it on here. i understand it in this situation but everyone will start doing it to boost stats and they they will mean nothing

You are a little late, everyone is dashboarding to save stats. Stats are such a joke at this point in call of duty too hard to tell what is legit and what isn't.
But yeah joining a game it should give you like 10 seconds to leave without a loss. More than half the time i find a game playing solo it's already in progress and no chance of winning.
You know whats even better? Taking the loss and backing out, and getting thrown backinto the same match..... three times in a row.
Bravo IW bravo.
not exactly boosting stats if your dashing it without picking a class and spawning in
There are a couple of guys I play with that dashboard constantly to save their stats. It's pretty annoying. And pathetic. Seriously? It's a game.
i think it should be a little more like Halo Reach. if you dont finish a match then it should count as a DNF (did not finish) not a win or loss. i really hate getting into a match, not even spawn in, i look at the score or the map and if it is something i dont like, i back out and then have it count against me. why do that? if you did not participate in the match, let alone spawn in the match to try to make the game swing either way, then WHY does it count as a loss when you back out? you didnt do anything. it should start being counted as a DNF and not a loss.
But in Halo Reach, if you quit 3 games, you get banned from matchmaking for 15 minutes...
There needs to be some sort of penalty for quitting, just not sure what.
but they dont have to have a penalty. people are so concerned with their stats that a DNF is a penalty enough.
and this doesnt have to have the quit ban Halo does.
The 15 minute ban is the penalty in Reach. There is no penalty in MW3.
If you ask me, it should be like Halo 3, and the number of games you either quit or dashboard should be tracked and made part of your stats section. It would quickly differentiate who is legit versus who quits when they start losing. Seems pretty simple to me. No penalties involved.
i know MW3 doesnt have a quit ban. and it shouldnt.
and i agree. i think even if you dashboard it should still show on your record.
Agreed. I think it would be ironic that people who are concerned enough with their stats that they dashboard, would get a black mark on their precious record for quitting. It just seems foolish to me.
