I couldn't care less if it's right, wrong, nor if it melts the polar icecaps and drowns the baby bears, my question is if it's against Ubisofts Code of Conduct or not.

well I remember seeing massive D afking in several games, so I guess thats why he would want to know if its against the rules.....

Allegedly* AFK players, please cut down on the hyperboles

You can call them whatever you like, you can call them nothing, it's irrelevant. What's obvious however is that one look at this tells you something isnt right.

If you want objectivity, I joined this game attempting to complete daily orders. But because of these three players choice and behavior it became an impossible task. Zero chance in this match. The result being grief.

Having a player at the keyboard makes no difference, as per this example

Reported 17 people yesterday, no response from Ubisoft. Same people in their today. One guy has levelled an Orochi to Rep 4 with 108 gear, and he's still running in circles. This game is unpalyable. I really just want a refund at this point and wash my hands of the whole experience. Never seen anything like this and can't believe it

Again, rubbish, because you can't even prove that the person is afk to begin with, if somebody choses to stay woke 16 hours with a single button pressed down because that's the way he or she want's to play the game do they still deserves a ban?

I'm being quite serious here, how are you gonna proove that somebody i afk?

Running in circles for 16 horus straight is not necesaraly a sign of somebody being afk.


If you ever played League of Legends, players use to stay AFK out of spite if they didn't like their team mates or to be d*cks in general, being a d*ck is not a banable offence, being AFK - IS NOT, a banable offence, it simply can't be, it's not a part of ToS for very obvious reasons


You may think I'm being outlandish here, but I'm simply blowing holes through the gaps in your narrative, as this is very clearly not a player issue.

yes they still deserve a ban, they are intentionally doing nothing to help said team.

my in game name is Vrgadin fyi, i never give up on a match or surrender no matter the odds, i am rep 5 all legit, anyone whos played with me knows this.

its called integrity people, get some

Someone put the video of MassiveD AFKing again. This guy must have done in for almost two weeks.

Haha ubi doing anything against cheaters/exploiters is a joke. Don't waste your time sending the ****. Post the vid on YouTube and spread it the best way possible. Maybe when the player base does a nose dive ala The Division, they start paying attention.

[Ahlos_Dahel]

yeah, and now with the Dominioin event there are atleast 1 always running against the wall in spawn entire match... ****ing useless... Staying in spawn should get them kicked like afk does

Have you people been living under a rock for the last few days?

Developers already released a statement against AFK farming.


They didn't outright blame players like everyone wanted them to, but instead did the sensible thing of comming up with a strategy to catch people doing it, and better AFK detector, alongside with the official statement that they do not approve AFK farming and they made an entry to the Code of Conduct stating so.

Starting next week they will be implementing sanctions:

1. If you been caught / reported durring the last few weeks, you will get an official cautionary warning to never do it again or else.
2. If after first warning you get caught again - temporary ban
3. If you get caught after that - progress wipe
4. If you get caught after that - permanent ban

I personally think Ubisoft have this very professionaly, addressed the issue without doing witch hunting or punishing people who may not have even been aware that they were doing something wrong, well technicly untill few days ago it wasn't even considered wrong as Code of Conduct did not cover it.

All's well that ends well

[MassiveD.]

that´s the opposite of efficient and professional. but whatever floats your boat.

Ah yes, public executions would have been so much better would they have not

But hey, look at the bright side, at least I get to be smug about it , for predicting and fortelling everything that was gonna happen and happened to a T, which is even more impressive if you consider that I had roughly 50 people screaming to my face at all times , telling me how wrong I am

Reminds me of that scene from Fargo

[MassiveD.]

??? public executions? are you in the wrong thread?

It's this new thing called "sarcasm", look it up
