WHAT THE F IS UP WITH VANGUARD STRIKES??????

Every single strike I play with two people, there's always somebody afk. If you don't want to play then don't! Edit: Didn't expect this many reactions. It's good to see, I'm not the only one experiencing this.

    I had a new one yesterday, i was playing with this guy who was afk, only one in the strike, most likely the other 2 disconnected because he was afk, so i run through the entire strike and this guy doesnt budge (someone else joins by this point) so i send him a message basically saying "hey i reported you for not playing and going afk you dick" and he was clearly afk trying to stay in because he was waving and dancing etc. And about 5 minutes later i get a reply "DUDE STFU MY WIFE STOPPED BREATHING" so i said "thats not a stop playing destiny for 10 mins and try to stay in the strike, thats a go to the hospital now, im shutting everthing down" he flipped shit after that but it was like, please, go to the hospital if your wife has stopped breathing. [spoiler]I dont believe what he said for a second.[/spoiler]

      • Should be either an AFK timer or a minimum kill requirement.

        • I've just gotten to where I look forwarding to two manning a strike with 3 people. Its kind of a challenge really, if you think about it.

        • Everyone has this problem it seems like, yet... I've done hundreds, maybe thousands, of strikes and this is a rare occurrence at best for me.

          • Yeah, and the community wants to allow these kinds of people to be randomly match made into a raid or 35 PoE. Ha! (Slaps knee)

            • Happens all the time to me. I usually just go hame nd solo/do most of the work. I could probly count on my hands the few times someones gotten more kills than me in a strike.

            • I don't about you but sometimes a little thing called life gets in the way and the last people care about is a Game. I've been guilty of this a couple times cuz I got little kids that require a crap load of attention.

                • Oh yeah. I leave and go to orbit when that happens. I could solo it but it requires so much more time and effort than just jumping into another lobby with guardians that want to play the strike.

                    Whats more of a pain is people AFKing in the lvl 28 Arena. I guessing people would rather get carried then do anything. I know its lvl 28 and its easy but this was when the DLC came out on May 19th.

                    • Unless I'm with friends I don't strike anymore . You can take only so much of AFKs and kids repeatedly trying to punch phogoth

                      • Their doing the cheap exploit of play a strike without dying cheese. I get on my sparrow and kill them for the lulz. Enjoy having to restart the strike!

                      • I play strikes expecting to 2 man them anyway, my friends are not the greatest PvE players of all time. But playing with randoms is usually even worse. Never had afkers though.
