Wow, why not just select a new host like they even did way back in Halo 2?

As for your question, it's obviously been made to prevent people from shortening games that they're winning and to prevent people from avoiding a loss.

If you think about it, there really is no better way (other than host switching!).


Everybody gets a loss, but what happened in the game is not counted. If a host leaves and/or dashboards then the rest of the people in the game should still be able to play and have the game play out as it normally would have. Having everybody lose really does not seem like the right path.

Which is why I'm sure everyone would prefer choosing another host once the first one quit. But as things look now, giving both teams one loss each is better than giving both teams nothing as the host could just quit if being in the losing team, which makes him avoid a loss.
