OK, Kenly College finally opened up again today (June 23, 2020) which is great cuz I wanted to run it with my brother. So we get in there and were doing fine ... until those guys that you need to kill with fire some along. SO we get killed a few times and I call for BACKUP - Help! We play for 2 HOURS more and nobody comes. NOBODY. I know how to play this game and have called for Backup on several occasions and somebody always shows up. BUT this time nobody comes? Why? Is the game broken? or what? I know there has to be thousands of players online/in the game. I have answered MANY Backups calls myself. In fact, I'm wearing the Shepherd's patch. So I can't figure this out? Any ideas?![]()
Pretty much this.Originally Posted by krazynomad Go to original post
I've just got fed up with answering calls for backup. First, it's bugged (the difficulty level it shows is world difficulty, not mission difficulty, so you have no idea what to expect -- is it Challenging like the call says, or are you going to be dropped into a Legendary?), and even without that it's 50/50 whether whoever's put in the call is actually worth helping. I've arrived to find them downed, revived them, and then watched them do absolutely nothing because they've just gone AFK; I've joined and been kicked immediately; I've joined, helped out with a boss fight or whatever, then the other player has left the group meaning no endorsement...
(I don't mind Kenly and I'm not sure why it gets so much hate. Having to work it out for yourself is a nice change from the "run from orange marker to orange marker" that makes up 99% of the rest of it.)
I will answer differently. I also have a shepherd patch and have repeatedly given support to other players ... but I'm already not.Originally Posted by OLD_KANUK Go to original post
1. First, I've never seen anyone call for support at Kelly College. This is a challenge that you have to go from beginning to end ... and not from the middle
2. Secondly, the shepherd's patch is the only trophy and satisfaction. The support system is tragic and insolent people. They treated me like a bot, not like a partner in the game - I successfully cured myself from supporting strangers. I only help friends and clan members.
Shepherd ranks got reset recently like always after 3 months. Useless to grind them because you dont keep them.I was rank 25 to get the commendation and now the incentive is gone becaue you get nothing for it. and you keep nothing.Originally Posted by ThePolkot Go to original post
