* ''HaloReach'' has several distinct versions of the rage quit.
** The standard FPS convention of rage quitting if your team begins to lose is still present. This is even worse than most team based FPS games due to most playlists having very small team sizes.
** Quitting because another player is too successfully killing you is present. Not quite as common as many FPS since the skill pairing function of ''HaloReach'' does seem to work reasonably well.
** Quitting before the match begins because the wrong game type was selected. This stems from the fact almost all the multiplayer playlists are divided by team sizes rather than game types. If people that only want to play slayer get matched with players that only want to play objective games, someone will probably rage quit before it starts. This particular one is a bit of a WallBanger because Bungie could have very easily included this as a Psych Profile option, an options screen that allows you to generalize what type of people you want to play with.
** Quitting before the match begins because the game type selected is not the most efficient one for completing the daily challenges. For example, not choosing an everyone starts with a Sniper Rifle game type when one of the daily challenges requires getting X headshots.

** In LeagueOfLegends, if you leave during a game you get a time penalty, a leaver mark and a loss. If you leave during champion selection before the game starts, both teams are disbanded with no ill effects for anyone involved, but you get a loss (ranked games only) and a time penalty. This was intended to counter players who would repeatedly leave until they were eventually assigned to a perfect team of highly skilled players. However, as a result those players now tend to try and bait someone else into leaving by picking a useless champion and bad summoner spells, acting like a complete noob and hoping someone else will take the immediate loss and short time penalty over what looks like a painful 25 minute surrender.

** People may also rage quit before even picking their character, due to seeing someone with a high amount of wins vs their low amount of losses. Cheaters will usually set their wins to an insane number and set their losses to zero (or a pitiful small amount to make it look like they're legit), which will make everyone leave the game since that's an obvious flag of a cheater. If you have a lot of wins under your belt compared to your losses, expect many people to ditch you before you can pick a character.

** ''LeagueOfLegends'', the SpiritualSuccessor to ''DefenseOfTheAncients'', suffers from rage-quitting at three stages. However, the designers have implemented punishments for the first two.
*** Players can "queue dodge" (leaving a match during character selection, usually done because someone else took the character they wanted). However, if you queue-dodge, you're not allowed to queue again for a certain amount of time (three minutes after the first dodge, ten minutes after the second and subsequent dodges, resetting eight hours after the last dodge), and the other players in the match are told who forced them back into the queue.
*** Players can close the client or disconnect while the match is in progress (which is any time after characters have been locked in). However, when you log back in, you'll be placed right back into the match - and if you're not connected at the end, you're stamped as a "Leaver". LeagueOfLegends tracks leaves as well as wins and losses; if your team wins, you only get credited with a leave, but if your team loses, you get a leave ''and a loss''. Further, the game directly rewards not leaving. Players get Influence Points (the game's currency) at the end of each match, and get bonus [=IP=] for streaks of ''not'' leaving games.
*** Players can surrender a match when it's clear that they're losing, to deprive the winning team of the satisfaction of victory. (Nominally, surrendering makes an [[{{Unwinnable}} unwinnable]] game shorter, but in practice nobody does it unless the other team is within inches of winning.) There is no explicit penalty for surrendering, but it ''does'' count as a loss in the system.
