I haven’t played traditional Warzone in Months, since the release of Firefight, since Farming was at an outrageous high. I decided today, that I would play a Match of Warzone, and got placed on Attack on Sanctum. My first match ended up pairing me against a full company who farmed us the duration of the match. Our team held up high for a while, but fell in the end. The players farmed the Southern garage by having players stationed on each upper entrance with Nornfang in the distance, players below with all shotguns, Swords, Prophet’s Bane, and camo boosts. They claimed all capture points after a bit, and farmed the base for about ten minutes, until someone was able to get to the southern base, that’s when we finally lost to the people trapping the entrances.
Any vehicles were immediately taken down with Spartan lasers on spawn.
I get people want the commendations, but this is just out of control. I have saw a decrease in players in Warzone and it is obvious a good chunk of players don’t wanna deal with these players, and would rather deal with purely AI or stick to Arena playlists…

I dont play much warzone because of this reason. It’s not even for commendations anymore, people just want to ruin the game for other players and just be complete idiots. It’s actually really sad that we can’t even play a game that we love so much. Farming saw a decrease a month or so ago, but i guess it’s coming back unfortunately.
Bologna… your service record says other wise… 5 warzone games in the last two days… 2 wins and 3 defeats… your last defeat that you speak of was 1000 to 608, not a typical “farming” score IMO… there were some Spartans with a lot of kills on the winning team but maybe they couldn’t get to your core. Odds are you just faced a really good team of players. It happens. Bad games happen… But your story has some holes.

It’s just another one of those threads…
Comprehensive defeat == farming.
Farming is being trapped in the home base and surrounded by tank and banshee spam-that is fair to complain about. Anything outside of that is fair game I reckon.

I had 4 games played by a friend on my account, but personally I hadn’t played until the last match earlier. As said, my teammates held up a good fight for a bit, until the team started just camping each entrance to our home base and the Garage entrances. The enemies were sitting at our core a few times, one of the instances I killed them with my scorpion, moments before one of the players camping the entrance of red base destroyed it with a laser.
There isn’t a general “Farming score” to me, unless it is within 300 or less on the losing side. They sat back in the distance, monitoring the entrances and allowed nobody to pass, and to me, that is farming.

It isn’t another one of those “threads”. Most of the players on that game camped the base entrance with banshee and Scorpions, while others stood back with Wraith and a couple stayed guard of any vehicles we spawned in by using Lasers. It was that way for half the match, until a teammate sneaked past and took over the Southern garage at the very end.

Inb4 you’re doing that and because you do you find it not farming.

That’s why I basically stick to wzff for the daily win packs and btb

Then it is a comprehensive defeat. If you were farmed, it would of went the whole match and not have capped that garage. No chance to rack up anything close to the points you earned.
You really think they simply let your teammate cap it without noticing?? Either they were really bad, or let it happen.
Many times companies, including myself, allow the enemy team to hold one base just so they don’t quit, and have some sort of chance. Better to have 12 players to kill than 5.
Farming sucks but when one team communicates and the other doesn’t or won’t acknowledge anyone on a Mic it won’t end well. I haven’t had a lot of farmed matches ( and haven’t played WZ in awhile) but some could have been easily diverted with communication.
Another part comes down to strategy. If a player is sitting out with a sniper, don’t call in a power weapon and charge out the entrance just too get killed and lose your req.
Sometimes you will run into a no win match just do to poor luck on matchmaking but other blowouts can be avoided.
My first 2 game’s back both went the same way. The enemy team took the base closest to our home base, and grabbed the other 2 then instantly destroyed our core. My team was with different people in both cases and in both cases they didn’t have a -Yoink!- clue what to do. That experience just shut me off from Warzone

That’s because most players won’t talk and most of the ones that do are the “edgy” kids right from call of duty,
Next time, pop active camo and kamikaze the first Top 3 player you encounter. Takes a lot of the sweetness out of farming for the top players when you break their killstreak.
