A small patch has been released for Gears of War 4 . Developer The Coalition has done two things in the patch: made those who leave multiplayer games more obvious on the scoreboard to aid in reporting of these players and decreased the effectiveness of Horde speed-running on the map Blood Drive.The Coalition described each change in more detail in a forum post

Quitters Will Be Shamed



We've added a small feature that displays Ranked quitters on the in-game scoreboard with the word QUIT as their score. This should help tracking and reporting players who quit games early via the Guide.



In the near future, we will be trialing further quit penalties via Credit Reductions for a limited time to combat quitting. Stay tuned for further news in the coming weeks.



Blood Drive Speedruns



We consistently target the most aggressive speed run methods that involve manipulating spawns with minimal effort required. We want to preserve the integrity of Horde for players looking to find legitimate matches with groups.



While all remaining speed-run tactics are currently considered fair game by the team, the latest Blood Drive methods were deemed far too manipulative to be left alone. As such, we have taken further preventative methods for Blood Drive in this Update.
