Bungie has warned budding Halo: Reach quitters that it intends to punish them for their transgressions.
The developer has drummed up new ways to boot out those who leave games early so upcoming FPS Halo: Reach will be free from their horrible griefing ways.
"I think one of the new things people will be excited about too, is how we're going to be able to penalise people who are habitually quitting out of games, which isn't exactly cheating, but it creates a really negative experience for everybody else in the game," explained Bungie's community director Brian Jarrard to X360A.
"We actually have new tools now to detect that and eventually, people who do this habitually will actually be penalised.
"We want to be able to remove them from the population so they can't make everyone else keep having a bad time."
Eurogamer spoke to Jarrard and campaign designer Niles Sanky recently and discovered all sorts of interesting gubbins about Bungie's final Halo game.
