ExorcistEX Posted January 27, 2014 Share Posted January 27, 2014 (edited) Marked a random mod and claimed it is a rare mod such as Jagged Edge ( p.s Rare 5 wont work all the time) or resources such as Orokin Cell/Neural Sensors. You can see him rushing to where we marked. :P Not working all the time but so far, 60% of AFK player fall into it. :P and not sure is it bugged or what but the Harvester targeted an AFK...(after the last screen flickering, it took about 30 secs to kill him so I guess it is a Harvester as Stalker would have kill him less than 10secs if the target is not moving) PS, there is no point for switch teleport or etc as this is the invasion mission.

Ground.Zero Posted January 27, 2014 Share Posted January 27, 2014 (edited) Was doing this earlier today during the countdown to extraction during invasion missions. Marked a rubbish mod and claimed it was a rare. Just as we extracted I saw the AFK person type "F***". Made my morning. Edit: Also do this to people who decide to extract early on survival missions, while they're all sitting waiting to be extracted I'll mark a 'rare' mod. On a few occasions there's actually been a rare mod too, which made it even better. Edited January 27, 2014 by Ground.Zero Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Incarmine Posted January 28, 2014 Share Posted January 28, 2014 There's always getting those ancients to follow you to where the AFK is and then go climb a box or something. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigVida Posted January 28, 2014 Share Posted January 28, 2014 afk is a huge issue in survival especially. And defenses. Guys go eat a sandwich while everyone busts their &#! and they come back to free loot with no negatives other than bad stats (who cares?). So yeah DE u wanna nerf stuff? How about fix team selection and afk players first Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
General_Krull Posted January 28, 2014 Share Posted January 28, 2014 I actually got accused of being AFK when I was testing what would happen if I cast Link and stand on fire. Come on! Who AFKs on a patch of fire?! And I was standing still for like 20 seconds. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jector Posted January 28, 2014 Share Posted January 28, 2014 Really the only map you can truly hose AFKers on is defense. Then, if you can communicate with the others, you get up to wave 20 or 30, pick continue, then all switch to exit when the counter hits a half second stranding the dude there to fend for himself. Everything else you do isn't much punishment, unfortunately. I just screenshot them, write the names down to make them miserable later if I encounter them, and report them to DE. Hopefully, if they get reported enough for the same BS, something will actually get done. Surprised we haven't had the "why let it bother you?" people pipe in yet. Because having a quarter of your manpower f*ck off in a 30 minute survival is somehow supposed to be insignificant. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Warriorrogue Posted January 28, 2014 Share Posted January 28, 2014 Something I've found is that you can put a wormhole on them and they'll be teleported. I use this for rushers at the end, AFKers, and certain clanmates. You know who you are. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KoshLovesYou Posted January 28, 2014 Share Posted January 28, 2014 Ohhhhh, you people are evil. But I can understand why.

Yes it does if you sit there afk for a whole mission it also makes you scum. I have a life too and it is the easiest thing in the world to exit out of a match so that someone else can join the group I can't help with. Then again I'm not a completely selfish jerk and know how to be polite. The whole I have a life excuse is total bs, exit out just cause you have a life doesn't entitle you to rewards you don't work for. If however you mean wandering off to use the bathroom or something, announcing you're going afk and coming back in a reasonable amount of time then no. I've not met anyone who had issue with that.
