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 also find this annoying. See a call for some mission on "challenging". Answer the call to find a mission in Story mode. Well, my intention was to help, so I shoot some bad guys and follow a new pkayer to the end. I revive them when needed and keep enemies off their back while they finish their own mission. I am not of the mind to wipe every enemy and clear the mission for them but to help them learn to play the game and offer some support.

    I have never answered the called and been dropped into a Legendary mission, thankfully.

    A couple of things I have noticed about calling for backup and answering the call:

    - when you enter a portion of a mission that is "No Respawn" your call for backup is canceled. You'll need to start your call again once you are through that area.

    - sometimes when I go to "answer the call" the option is missing from the main map (up on D-pad for Xbox). If I go to the "Matchmaking" tab and hit answer the call I either taken to the inital call that I saw or dropped into another player's call for help. So there is more than one way to answer a call.

    The biggest problem with Kenley is its no fun to repeat it. You just do it once for the Exotic & then never return unless you are helping out a friend or clan member. They should add something to it to attract players to return to it. Maybe an exotic cache ?

    1) nobody plays Kenley College. Literally not a single person in my clan even mentions it.

    2) The incentive to assist other players outside the clan is so miniscule that very few people want to do it. Sad but true.
