    DOMINION VS IA Exploit!!

    Some players are exploiting the fact that you still get some exp after losing a game even if you did'nt did anything! So these players are just joining games and stay in the spawn and there is a lot of people who are doing this so DOMINION VS IA is unplayable!
    Here is two screenshot of 2 different game:

    Hi Valtaya,

    It doesn't seem like SpyHunt3r05 is shaming anyone, merely pointing out a issue they are having with proof of said issue.
    Secondly, after scanning the forum rules, I cannot personally find rules against so called shaming. The closest I could find was:
    (NO) Insult, harass, abuse members, mods or staff of the boards or Support
    I don't feel their post falls under one of these requirements, but your mileage may vary.

    SpyHunt3r05, I have to agree with you. While many players try to get wins, some are just AFK-ing for the XP. I do not believe this is how the game was intended to be played, and the fact that XP is awarded is merely to still reward those who joined as the game was ending. For that reason, it should be relatively easy to incorporate a check to "fix" this issue, were the developers so inclined.

    Who cares either way, they don't moderate these forums at all.

    Any ******* who engages in this type of afk behavior deserves to be shamed and banned from the game.

    Game has enough problems, We don't need the people themselves ruining it even furthur

    I agree, and I have a good idea how to fix this:

    A few years ago in Team Fortress 2, Valve released an update that basically only gives items to players that are actively playing the game, and doesn't give anything to the AFK players. So I'm thinking we implement this same system to For Honor! Give XP and Gear to players that are killing soldiers, killing the heroes, capturing points, etc, and don't give anything to the "power levelers" as they're so called.

    Omg, plz fix this shizz already! I've played 3 Dominion matches vs. AI this morning, and all three had afk'ers. (2 matches had multiple) I've even had them pop up in Elimination and Skirmish matches. It makes fulfilling orders a pain in the @$$, especially when there's a condition on the number of deaths you can have or you need victories. PLEASE FIX THIS!!!

    Side Note: If anyone could direct me to a thread or video on how to upload my pics and vids to the forums, I'd appreciate it. I've been screenshotting and recording these A-holes walking in circles in spawn all morning. I want them all banned with impunity.

    Secondary Side Note: It's not just happening in AI matches...

    Are you saying that it's happening in PvP too?! EVEN DURING THE EVENT?!

    SpyHunt3r05, I don't know if this is funny or sad, but I have a screenshot and video of that [DogWarz] guy. I was actually shooting footage and screenshotting BarnabyJones, but managed to get [DogWarz] in there as well...

    Unfortunately I don't know how to post the video on the forums. The only place I'm able to share it is in my activity feed...

    Ubisoft: Stop the auto ready function in your game.

    Make it so a player has to "ready up", that is hold the X button to signify they have chosen their player and are ready to battle. Just like you cannot AFK in a single player match because you have to ready at the beginning of each match.

    The only reason people can AFK is because of the timer between matches when there are more than one player.

    This doesn't necessarily mean they're exploiting and going afk. There are alot of time where I join matches right when it ends and don't even get a chance to play, but still get the rewards at the end.
