Massive lag and now AFK penalty in Mirror, good priorities cryptic

So i had full of lag in mirror today, maybe got a shot or 2 in, can't even tell.
Then i get AFK penalty.

Maybe cryptic should look at their servers before taking the easy solution of AFK penalties.

And to all those that want to say "omg liek i don't have lag liek it doesn't exist" it does. Look at other threads, people can't even log on.

    Servers are seriously acting up just about now. I had no problem until a minute ago.

    "He shall be my finest warrior, this generic man who was forced upon me.
    Like a badass I shall make him look, and in the furnace of war I shall forge him.
    he shall be of iron will and steely sinew.
    In great armour I shall clad him and with the mightiest weapons he shall be armed.
    He will be untouched by plague or disease; no sickness shall blight him.
    He shall have such tactics, strategies and machines that no foe will best him in battle.
    He is my answer to cryptic logic, he is the Defender of my Romulan Crew.
    He is Tovan Khev... and he shall know no fear."

    Have they fixed the bug where nothing spawns for 5 minutes? This does not happen all the time but it is really annoying.
    Have you tried the new forum on your phone?

    there is no AFK penalty, but there should be. too many players just joining mirror invasion and going AFK. there should be 0 reward for players with under 25% activity which means no firing of weapons, no flying, no interaction with rifts etc. warthunder has afk penaltys and there are almost 0 afk players in that game.

    Nah, I'm only seeing about 40% of teams with an AFK leech. That's less than half!

    Since when is there an AFK penalty in the event?​​

    Oh and if you forget to leave when you're done guess what happens... You are thrown back in the map again the next day starting over with the leave countdown and actually leaving puts you on a cool down.

    I love how devs try to grief people any possible way they can :D.

    if you "forget" to leave when you're done 3 things can happen 1.your will get out in 5sec and can do the stf again 2.as soon a your are in your get the rewards and 30min countdown starts 3. your don't get any rewards but still the countdown kicks in ...

    thise events are very easy cristalline takes 4 min at most with 2 players and mirror 16min there is no need for afk penallty for it the afkers make it more challenging

    No lag for me and no afk penalty. But then I don't just park in the corner of a map either.

    Wrong thread.



    I know there wasn't an afk penalty. But i definitely got one when i was lagging heavily. Maybe because of the lag something wasn't getting sent to their end so i got the penalty? Whereas normal AFKers are still in the map, sending reports to the server and don't get it?

    Umm...what afk penalty? This mission doesn't have one. That is why we have so many fraking leechers in advanced

    All queues have AFK penalty. It's just a bad joke that's trivial to avoid. I've never heard of anyone getting it by actually AFKing, only by having low DPS or by getting disconnected or lagged.

    And there aren't that many "leechers" in Advanced, just a lot of players who choose to skip the optionals.
