When yur doing strikes and someone is AFK I have a challenge for you.......
Stop...think..."maybe something happened and he had to step away..
For example some of us are parents ... And if the kid wakes up we go take care of our kid... We don't think to go to orbit we want to take care of our kid... So don't act like a pansy and report or send hate message. Start the strike. ITS NOT THAT HARD! And we will catch up.....
Edit....
Wow. I didn't know there was this many ignorant babies that played this game. I can see reporting the dude that tapes a controller and is just standing there punching..... So please continue to be butt hurt that somebody stepped away and isn't there to carry yur sorry adds in a strike because if you are as good as you say then it doesn't matter solo the damn thing. Report away cause destiny never said it was abuse to have to "legit" step away. Oh any for the dickheads that say turn it off before getting my child. When I hear my kid fall outta bed -blam!- the game I'm getting my kid. If that negatively effects yur experience go "QUICK SCOPE ON CALL OF DUTY!
Edit 2.... Never mind lol apprently some people take this game way to serious and will never understand the point of this topic. But for the people who can't even giving u a min to switch weapons etc before they start punching and crying. Please report away cause now I will purposely sit on my ass just to piss you off
Edit 3.... For those of you who understand. Thanks. Those of you who don't..... Grow up get married. Have a kid (because you want one)... Don't forget to mature .. And then maybe you will understand that the real people who ruin games are the butt hurt babies who cry and report about petty shit. Seems to me that the real people trying to get carried in a strike are the ones complaining someone is afk
Edit 4..The reason of this post was to see other people opinions. It interesting to see the number of people who agree with me and the number of people of seem to get butt hurt and take a game way to seriously lol
Edit 5... Since everybody is so butt hurt I decided to go AFK on purpose.... Just got hard light. Lol. Might do this every night before bed now
Edit 6.. 5 was sarcasm in case tall don't know. And the whole point of not leaving is maybe we like that strike and wanna come back to it and not go to orbit cause we all know how hard it is to get the one we want in rotation. I had arkon priest 3 times In a row before

What do people expect from a game that can't be paused!
-
Nononono i see your problem. Stating your opinion over the internet?!?!? I though people were smarter now :S
-
No I sat for 30 mins and this person wasn't coming to help. Instead he/she was farming spin metal
-
Just wow to edit 5. You deserve to be reported everytime now.

Edited by sergeantawesome: 3/6/2015 6:59:58 AMAs a husband and parent, let me throw my 2 cents in. People need to not be assholes and report/kick for someone being gone for less than 2 minutes and get some patience. However, if I start the strike and 10 minutes later, or half of the strike, you have not moved, you're gone. If your kid gets into some trouble while your watching them, then that is a child care issue, not a game issue. Other people play this game, so everyone needs to understand people have issues, and people cannot always let theirs get in the way of others. Shit goes both ways. If my kid is around. It's close friends or I solo. No randoms.

I got an afk experience for you: Was on omnigul in a couple weeks ago in a roc strike. Joined a random team at omnigul. Just started fighting and one of the players was crouched around a corner and not moving. After a while I decided I'd have some fun and started pushing the person who was afk toward the omnigul room. Then the other player comes up to me and starts pushing their friend back out of the room. We kept going back and forth until I finally pushed the afk person into omniguls line of site. The afk person continued to die and their teammate kept reviving them to try to push them back out but they just kept dying. I was laughing so hard. Then the afk persons friend sent me a message that said "stop being a -blam!- you little -blam!- he's eating dinner blah blah blah". So then I pushed his afk friend back into omnigul all while I was cracking up at this guys reactions. Good times... Good times

Hey man do what you gotta do I'll keep grinding I'm used to it! If I gotta go AFK believe me I'll do it! :)
-
If we are halfway through and someone goes AFK I'll keep going because it's plausible that something happened. If someone is AFK at the start they are most likely a strike AFKer so I will troll them and then leave. Sure, a few people might have legitimate reasons but most of them are just looking for someone else do the work for their reward. Basically a few assholes ruined it for everybody.
-
I just ram them into a wall with my sparrow or shoulder charge 20-30 times and they usually leave
-
I'm married and have two children. If I need to take care of family I go to orbit - it takes only a few seconds. If it's an emergency it's the power button. It's called common decency. If you leave, your otherwise useless slot will get filled with another player rather than forcing the other two to carry your dead weight.
-
The problem in my humble opinion is there is no way to tell the genuine AFK people from the tossers out there. I've had to do it before when if I don't I'll piss myself.... It does happen and I can empathise with having a child... You do sometimes just have to drop the controller and go. But in the cases of me having to go - but none urgent I would leave to orbit and at least give the rest the chance of getting the slot filled.
-
People go full tard to hard in this game. Don't mind them, remember this game is for children.
-
Literally, if you report anyone on Xbox live, you are a full blown pussy
-
Yeah.....i get it, but the problem isnt players occasionally having to walk away for whatever reason......its players intentionally going afk, and not coming back..........this happens a lot, really a lot...... So how do you propose that people who are actually playing the game tells the difference between "cheaters" and someone who had get the door or something. If someone just stands there for over a minute, or hasnt moved by the time i get through the first few areas.....im out
-
The only challenge is killing them with your sparrow 20 times and carry on.
-
I'll just kill you with my sparrow, even if there not afk
-
I put solar wind on. Push him the the edge of the map. Watch him for. Revive him. Watch him die. Rinse repeat. Until he comes back or I get bored and just leave. Then he wonders why his strike kd went down so much. :D
-
You have a personal responsibility to be active when you can. We aren't here to be one man down because you have real life happening. Leave the strike, because you have to babysit, we don't. Also wear a condom.
-
It's afc away from controller
-
I don't mind. I'll just get on my sparrow and ram you over ledges or into walls repeatedly. I don't do it to be a prick... I just find it amusing to do so.
-
Reminds me of when Broman flipped out at a dude for going afk. He told everyone in the stream to spam his gamer tag. He is on a total other level of douchebag.
-
If you go afk I will ram you into walls with my sparrow, push you off cliffs and into enemy fire and continue reviving you until you either decide to help or leave. I don't know your reasons unless you message me. If you have a good excuse then no harm done and we can start the strike. This is how the internet works.
-
I'm sorry, I can't hear you over the sound of my Sparrow's engine boosting you off a cliff.
-
Yea. I joined a weekly heroic last night, 1 guy was afk in a stairwell. Me and the other dude that was playing got about half way through the strike then both managed to die due to a shitty bubble. So now we are both just sitting there waiting to be revived but the afk guy doesn't come back for another 10 mins so we both had to leave and start again.. reported
-
Or, if you're on the ROC strike, run them over with your sparrow. They'll come back for sure
-
I had to take a crap in the matchmaking/orbit purgatory. When I came back the game was empty. The thing was I didn't take long. It might have been the fact that it was undying mind though.
