I want to bring everyone's attention to a really bad problem plaguing games on Xbox Live. First it was the Master Chief Collection and now the new Gears of War Ultimate Edition. Player reputation feedback sounds good on paper, but it's open for flagrant abuse without any checks and balances. If someone doesn't like you for any fleeting reason they can go to your profile and leave slanderous feedback.
The problem is that the feedback affects your matchmade games. I went from "good" reputation to "avoid" within a matter of 2 days after playing some Gears of War UE with a friend (in a private chat mind you):
How to get bad rep on Xbox Live
I guess some players didn't like that I dominated them and left false feedback to screw me over. Well, they won. I can't find games in matchmaking anymore. I have to wait for a game to come up every 10-15 minutes if I'm lucky. Edit: I can no longer get into a game. =(
What was Microsoft thinking?
Why have they STILL not done anything about this?
I spent good money on their products and just because I'm good at the game I can no longer play the games online consistently.
EDIT: Go to the Gears of War Forum and you will find several threads of this happening to other players. Ridiculous.
