Vanguard Tiger Strikes BS!!! BUNGIE get in here!!
I'm getting really frustrated seeing people not participating in the strike playlist just standing there at the starting point doing nothing.
I just witnessed a person get a legendary engram by doing this. I'm pissed right now and i really don't care about this scum . I reported this person through the game and through my Xbox.
This was The Summoning Pits Strike. When the strike was over i saw that the person ended up having only 10 kill but never came past the "Respawn Restricted Zone" with us to face the waves of enemies. My guess it that this person waited for us to get to that part only to face The acolytes and the 3 Knights at the very Beginning.
My proposal to Bungie:
In the Crucible there's an automatic kick for inactivity. I'm asking for this same exact thing to be added to the strike playlist. I understand life calls us sometimes and some of us have children we need to deal with quickly before we get to gaming. So the kick should game when a player from the Fire-team passes through the Darkness Zone. Once a player passes through the Darkness Zone checkpoint every other player in the fire-team has 1 minute to pass through the checkpoint before they are kicked. Same thing happens when a player reaches the final boss checkpoint. Once a player reaches the final boss intro checkpoint every other player in the fire team that is not there need to be there in 1 minute before they are kicked.
I never really paid attention to forums threads talking about people going AFK in the strike playlist but now that it has happened to me i can see where everybody is coming from I only hope somebody from the Bungie team finds this thread and take action on this issue.
EDIT: I understand where some of you are coming from with the solo option. I solo Tiger strike a lot of time myself. But to see somebody get a legendary engram for doing nothing isn't a cool sight for me.
EDIT 2: Increase time from 1 minute to 2 or 3 minutes or maybe 5 but overall you have to make it to the Darkness checkpoint or get kicked.

Report them in game and you will be less likely to get paired with them in the future. Drop out an then matchmake again.

I'm not sure your fix is ideal, could cause some issues. BUT you are 100% right that this needs fixing. I play strike most the time and too get frustrated when people don't participate. Id say that as this has been an issue for so long now Bungie are already working on it as they would not have intended for strikes to work like this, it may take some time.

Some valid points

Edited by Wellhammer: 10/21/2014 6:10:20 PMI think you should just be able to ignore someone and leave the strike, once they are on your ignore list it doesnt match you with them ever again and they get an optional message saying they are ignored due to being a lazy bum etc etc So they will just lower the chances of them getting groups with players like yourself and myself and anyone else who doesnt like this sort of behaviour, if you dont care and call people whiny babies then you dont need to ignore them but most likely you are one of the ones doing i. What will happen is three people will be stood at start doing nothing - at least they will just be wasting each others time

Edited by tru4life: 10/22/2014 7:54:58 PMIdk the other day I was playing and someone came over and forgot bout game in other room, I could see similar situations happening sometimes, anyway by the time I got back I was at beginning and the other 2 have already left. I myself have never ran into people doing this it does suck tho when people start then leave, but again maybe something came up and they had to leave
-
Idk, sometimes people speedrun missions and are like at final boss while others are out killing other mobs
-
My gripe is people leaving before getting to the boss, this happens almost everytime. The strikes aren't even hard, must be COD players that are dropping from the group. lmao

4 RepliesAgreed, but the time limit of 1 min is a little harsh and heres why. I have received more engrams while fighting enemy before entering the "Darkness" zones and quite frankly I hate seeing guys just wanting to 'Speed run" I get it, thats their style of play BUT damn it's not for everyone and that "Time limit" would then force all players to just speed run. I know this would never happen but maybe 2 strike lists? one for players looking to speed run and the other for players that want to "Play" the game. Just my thoughts.
-
Yeah one is way too little time. What if you need to go toilet? Or as you said have a child, phone call, door. Can't ignore everything so you don't get kicked. Only problem is though there's no real middle ground. Too little they can't do basic things toilet etc, too much they can easily just do something every few mins to stay active.

The best thing to do is for the 2 that are participating to let themselves get downed in spawn restricted areas , they soon come running to get their precious rewards . Done this earlier with a random on the Nexus strike , even without a mic he knew what i was doing and followed suit , the AFK'er soon got the message :)

9 RepliesYou saw someone get a legendary doing a tiger strike?!? Go buy a lottery ticket immediately!!
-
I agree with auto kicking but I play music on my 360 which can sometimes take a while to start, even when I start it on the loading screen, 5 min would be minimum
-
dude just wait a few mins to see if they move, because i normally go afk in between strikes

1 ReplyJust wait a few seconds in the game to see if they move... If they don't, just leave or continue to the first no respawn location and kill yourself, it will bring all players to your location, then sit back and let them get killed repeatedly.
-
U can do it on ur own......
-
back to orbit and retry

2 RepliesIf you don't have at least 20 kills then no reward
-
2 RepliesWhat about people who speed run ahead of the other two? What happens if they make it to the check point first?
-
My problem with this is the players that just speed through everything to get to the end boss. They jump on their sparrows and ride as far as they can through the strike. That's just as aggravating! And then they get pissed because you actually wanted to play the strike. So they die at the boss just to pull you forward to respawn into the boss location missing everything else.

How about instead of kicking someone for being inactive instead of getting a reward it randomly takes a piece of their equipped gear/weapons - *insert evil grin here*

9 RepliesEdited by x___ICHI___X: 10/22/2014 10:27:03 AMIt's a very simple fix. Instead if enemies killed total. How about factor in damage done. If you don't do atleast 25% of the damage then your rewards are lowered. If you do less then 10% of the raid damage then you get nothing. Mind you this only counts on mobs that are lvl 24. So no farming trash spawns prior to the actual strike. It rewards those that play and punishes those that afk. Short version Percentage of raid damage=reward. 50%+ guaranteed legendary possible exotic 49.9-33% increased legendary chance 25-32.9% normal 10-25% greens possible blue Less then 10% nothing and you have a 30 min debuff not allowing you to join another. Get 3 or more debuffs in the same day 1 day ban from strikes. Get more then 6 in the same week. Next week's raid cycle is locked. Meaning your next week of raiding counts as you have already completed it. Aka no rewards. More then 15 in one month and matchmaking is turned off and your always solo unless joining as a fireteam.

8 RepliesYou do realize reporting them will do nothing for they did not break any rules at all. In fact constantly reporting people like that may get you looked in to instead as maybe put as an over active reporter and thus future reports by you are ignored by them.

10 RepliesJust because he got a legendary engram doesn't mean he actually got a legendary from it. I have gotten a few legendary engrams from strikes and crucible and they turned out to be nothing more than a mote of light
-
2 RepliesJust push them with your speeder into enemies if they are AFK they will have like 30 deaths and 0 kills hurting their K/D ratio.
-
I hope he got an exotic from it. Git gud kit.
