Option to kick inactive players please

I'm not one to complain but if I can't stand something its a lazy freeloader. Tired of doing strikes and teaming up with people who do the bare minimum atleast until the boss or final area and then do nothing. Yet reap rewards for me and the other guys hard work, well not hard but you know. Can this be addressed or possibly if both the other players report him hell get kicked or SOMETHING. Or is there already something to stop this? *MEXY*ACH was the user on ps3 who did this. *Astrix are so I don't get booted *

  • Happens to me every Strike (unless I'm playing with friends). I end the strike with 100+ kills, while JoeSmoeShitHead ends the match with 6 kills and gets the legendary engram. Not sure if this is correct or not, but I believe the server will autokick people back to orbit if they're inactive for too long. Not sure if that's true or not.

    • I agree, there should be something like this out in. At least if 2/3 vote to kick, see ya. Then, the idle player should be unable to join any other pve event or strike/raid for a period of 8 hours. Until they do something about this, most people I've played with will leave the group. Simple fix

      This is weird to me, if i'm inactive during anything i get sent back to orbit due to inactivity. It's like a 10 or 15 minute timer.

      Here is an idea do it with friends....simple I know. I thought it sounded crazy at first. If I don't like being teamed with a-holes I should just play with my friends. Wow what a crazy concept. Just so you know I do this too sometimes. I did it last night because the earth strike spawns me closer to my destination. Also I didn't feel bad for leaving them to do it. Why? Simple. It was a freaking level 8 strike and the other two were 28s. So yeah Im sure they did fine. Hell I left in the middle of it when I was done with my task. I don't feel bad at all doing it. Most of the time I run through the strikes doing everything so I can get done fast to up my vanguard rank. To be honest If you are two levels above the strike and can't do it down a guy you really should play a different game.

      • I would definitely be in favor of a kick option. If Bungie asked us if we wanted to have one I would vote yes. However, here is my fear, let say I do a strike where I'm put into a fireteam where the other two players are actually playing together (in terms of party) and then at the end of a strike I get booted right before boss is defeated becuz the other two players thought it would be funny to test out the new feature on a random they were playing with. Though this would most likely Rarely to never happen, it would piss me off if ppl started using the kick option like that.

      • This. Please. Had a douche stay at the starting area while the other guy and myself finished the strike. He just killed Hive and Fallen the whole time.

        • I did get dumped into a strike where the boss was nearly dead. I ended up getting a legendary engram for like 5 kills while everyone else had like 30-40+ Wasn't my fault I got dumped into an almost completed strike.

              • I wouldn't mind a system like that, but it could be abused way too easily. Like say if you join a strike or a Queen's Wrath strike, but you're playing with a guy and someone else and they have the same clan tag. You make it to the end of the strike and before the final blow is dealt, the other two guys could report you as inactive or something and you get booted before you could get the kill and get your reward.

                • I had some asshat that sat on top of the satellite while being invisible the whole time. I had already done my daily and had a surplus of shards so I fought to the last wave, when the enemies get tough. Summoned my speeder, drove to a vantage point and watched him try to finish it solo, dying over and over again through my sniper rifle. He then sent me a rude message.

                    • Discretion to kick will get abused. That said, the game should automatically detect inactivity at some reasonable interval (120 seconds or so) and boot the player. There might also be a check to see if a person has done some amount of party damage in the past few minutes (a tenth or so, so newer players don't get penalised) and boot based on that. I don't think bans are in order for something like this. There are plenty of reasons a person might suddenly have to put down the controller. Getting kicked from a strike or Crucible match and losing out on any rewards is penalty enough.

                        Yes. Please. A vote kick option would be great. But won't work if you're alone and if you're dealing with TWO freeloaders. Best if you take at least one friend with you to vote.

                        • I had one guy join just as I fired the last bullet and killed the last boss. He got 0 kills, 0 assists, 0 deaths and about 2 seconds play time - got awarded 2 items, I got nothing.. Lucky him I guess

                          • Ya, I've seen this happen way too often, especially when the "Complete a Strike Without Dying" bounty is up for the day.The problem with your solution though is that I think there will be too many trolls booting people from a strike at the last minute so that you don't get any rewards.

                            • I would say 1min of inactivity (and not moving 1ft every second counts as inactive) and then the boot. Repeated offense will result into the eventual temporary ban as the highest until server reset. Also a mandatory amount of kills (1 per 5min after someone makes the first kill) will result in the same action. Being away from the zone for a minimum of 3minuted (or away from someone inside the zone) will result an instant kill and immediate spawning into the zone area with THE MOST hostiles where party is at (this is most unlikely going to be implemented but I would like to call it a yoink -or yank-.)
