AFK campers sit in the MCC to get points, you now made so if your not moving for so long that you get kicked. This does not actually fix the problem. As you can simply place your controller upside-down and make the thumb stick push forward and they apear to be playing.
Solution: After about 20 seconds of sitting IN THE MCC, you are automaticly pushed out of the MCC. The AFK farmers would fall to their death and probably be kicked for not respawning. If they are paying attention you live.
I have not sniped in a bit but my understanding to this is that snipers are being kicked for being still too long. This would also solve this problem.
Q: Well what if they spawn in behind and go hide someplace to AFK farm?
Make it so if you do not get any WP after so long (from beginning of game) you get kicked and receive no SP or ISK.
Even the most noobish or worst player can get some WP off of assists or hacking.
The last game I played we won because only 6 players were playing on the enemy team. the other 10 were sitting in their MCC forever walking forward getting free SP and ISK. |

I like the idea of booting people out of the mcc but because this sometimes might be because of lagg i would put that timer at 1 minute. Maybe even 3 minutes so people that need to relieve themselves can do so without leaving the game.
The rest of the issues i would wait to see how well this mechanic alone works before implementing. |

i love these tear of how to fix AFKing by some mechanic or another, the best fix is a change to reward system that reward the most for just being in that match, the core reason AFK is viable in this game. go AFK in PS2 what do you get? resources that barely effect play with the EXP system rewards going out an doing stuff and lets you upgrade your stuff. BF3 what do you get a minor amount of EXP to you level that you could of gotten from a single kill and nothing for your kits. COD same thing. |

Technically by being deployed in the MCC you are in the battle. if you never spawn into the battle it would eventually kick you out of the battle.
Having something eject people out of the mcc would 1 kill them for being afk and 2 if they stay afk they would not deploy which would then kick them out of the battle. |

I think we should just hunt down the AFK farmers IRL and beard slap them. It's such a depressing behaviour, doing just about anything to have this miniscule personal gain while others suffer for it. Just man up, you wankers. |

They need to reduce passive SP in battles and reward WP with more SP. Fixed. |

there are mechanics in the game to prevent idle afk so they would have to be moving. Though this might mean seeing a bunch of people crammed into 1 small area under the mcc running into a wall constantly or a mountain. |

`Sigh. If only there weren't so many kittens playing games... then these threads wouldn't even exist.
There would be no need to fix AFK farming as there would be no one going AFK unless something unexpended happens in which case It would only be temporary.
There would be no cap for repping allies as there would be no one to exploit it.
Vehicles would not have been given a collision nurf as there would be no murder taxis (players would get ran over but it would be the infantry's fault)
CalLogis would still have the eHP as they would be used as heavy medics instead of immortal assaults.
Dropships would be easier to use as there would be no flying murder taxis.
Forums wouldn't be filled to the brim with stupid topics as all the idiots would be playing something else.
Yes, the game has it's issues but as I always say "The number one problem with any game is the people that play it".
I would love for CCP to, unexcitingly, stop giving bonus SP for about a month and see just how many kittens go away (yes an inconvenience but it could help the game in the end)
As for my suggestion on AFKers I say if the match ends and you go 0/0/0 (must be in a match for a set amount of time to avoid unjust punishments) or your time within the MCC reaches a set limit then you are given a strike and lose 33% of your remaining bonus SP. After 3 strikes you lose all bonus SP, are limited to just 500 SP per match (including boosters), and WPs only grant 0.5 SP (so 1 SP for every 2 WPs). With this the AFKers will most likely just stop playing and let there passive SP pile up but who cares as they won't be plaguing us anymore.
[EDIT] Punishment lasts until weekly reset.
`Sigh. Just another fun game of DUST . |
