There's been an update for the Master Chief Collection which you'll need to download next time you boot up the game. This update adresses matchmaking penalties, ranking, stability and your usual maintenance.
We'll start off with the thorn that has been in everyones eyes the last few weeks. Which is...
Quitting and betraying:
-
New quit and betrayal penalties have been added to matchmaking:
-
In ranked playlists, quitting a match is now treated the same as a loss. Quitting is defined as exiting the game in any fashion. If you quit a match, your ranking will be impacted, and this may result in dropping a level.
-
All quits and betrayals are being tracked automatically, and action is being taken against offending players who commit these offenses more than what is considered normal behavior.
Next up is what people have been wanting since the beginning. Which is...
Ranking:
-
A variety of improvements to ranking consistency and penalties have been made.
