In Warzone there seems to always be one or two people at least who sit in the base with the power core just running around or ground pounding marines watching them fly around wasting time while being detrimental to the team…Because they’re doing not anything…basically afking…
The amount of people doing nothing always varies sometimes it puts as at a small disadvantage other times we lose 100 something to 1000 because 5 people are mongoose racing in the base behind the barrier…
Am I the only one who sees this or have my fellow waypointers also seen this?
I’d like to know if I can report these people
EDIT 1: I confirmed they get 1800 req points for a loss without participation in objectives or killing AI, Enemies etc…
EDIT 2: So I left regular Warzone to avoid thesr types of players? What do I find immediately?
Proof that people AFK here in assault too…But the game doesn’t realize because they aim around or move a little bit in the back of the maps!!!

No different than players who quit, betray for power weapons, go AFK, etc. The end result is it results in a loss to your match. 343 won’t do anything about it so there’s nothing you can do. Oh, and you get penalized for losing regardless if you stayed, played, and performed well.

Someone should test this if they get 1800+ a match and never leave the main base 343 needs to do some major patching
Bungie had the best solution. In Reach a lot of players would go AFK in Firefight for XP. Bungie waited until they reached the highest rank (Inheritor), got the Haunted Helm and then reset their rank back to noob. It happened to the first player to reach that rank and several others in the top 10. Hundreds and hundreds of hours of game time with nothing to show for it. Priceless.

Not going to happen. 343 isn’t even patching the Armory exploit in Assault and that’s a far greater problem.

Not that I’d want to be the one in the base but that’s a good question

That’s great
Now they can fix this other issue next month I hope
well they aren’t breaking the rules, and who cares? the get less req points for not participating so its not you’re problem. besides the enemy team probably has the same problem

You get at least 1600 for a loss and 2000 for a win doing nothing if you look at the carnage report what you do has very little impact on XP and RP in Warzone
Its free req points for just walking around not even at the risk of getting shot
Well it’s the social playlist at the moment. They are just “playing for fun” that so many posts want to make a big deal out of. Can’t have it both ways.

from the info in the next patch
Oh, and while we’re talking playlists, the Cartographer’s Gift update will indeed include a Warzone Assault update to ensure players do things in the right order.

Your apathy to this situation is less than encouraging.
This does affect me. This automatically puts my team at a disadvantage to the enemy. Less teammates means less guns on enemies meaning they are more likely to take over objectives faster. This means I die more, I can’t advance to get better weapons, I lose, my gaming experience is compromised. So its very much my problem.
Your last sentence is pure speculation and therefore irrelevant.

Exactly, this is basically a form of boosting for reqs/exp…
Req poinys seem to be based off of play time or game mode and win or loss in that game mode…
Not what you actually do so in result there are “Boosters” playing in a way that they don’t have to encounter enemies or play the objectiveHiding in the core base with the barrier while still gettr the full rewards…
Big BIG problem here
They even have the balls to crouch in the corner when 3 bases are capped so I can’t give them the defending a PROTECTED BASE CORE ENEMIES CANT SHOOT excuse either sadly…
