this is an example to follow, harmony and cooperation, help and dialogue, the truth I am surprised, because we had some differences and it was not to dialogue, help and cooperate, I am glad that there are good intentions, tell me where you have to sign this decree so honest and friendly, which I had not yet found?

i can see where people are coming form tho it can be discouraging in its self to feel that you are doing all the work and other peoples are getting the rewards for it
i used to have to “afk hunt” more times then i liked in the end and it was one of the many reassons why i stoped leading cuz i felt bad that i was doing nothing while getting Oort
i think that’s debatable sure you would get lower level metors but if eveyone is pulling there weight then you would clear more so short term less but long term you would earn more
This math does not make sense to me. If I get at least level 3 meteors with 5 active players and at least level 5 meteors with 12 active and players then I always get more loot for having more players. I do not think short and long term have anything to do with it.
it depends alot on the tier of the world too one of the big factors why my hunts where always low level ones was due to the fact that i would have say 20-30 people show up but only 5 or 6 where what i would class has dpsers and would take 10-15 min just to clear a level 5 on a tier 4+ world vs 4-5 to clear a level 3 on the same world. so yea level 5s pay off more but if you can clear 3 or 4 level 3s in the time it takes to clear 1 level 5 so i may have got my thinking reversed short term you would come out ahead long term you may lose out.
You were a great hunt leader. I miss your hunts

If this is that much of a concern for you, then you can create and lead your own invite only hunt, and only invite people who you trust to meet your standards, if you are going on a publicly hosted hunt where anyone is allowed to join, then in my book you have very little standing to complain about what other people do or don’t do.
As long as the person is not purposefully creating a obnoxious problem, such as throwing regen bombs or being harassing to players on the hunt. then there is nothing wrong in my book.
Don’t go on public hunts if you have expectations or requirements.

there is no such thing tho has a private hunt sure if you dont advertise it then lot less likely people will show up but if i see say a small group doing a hunt or know x player des hes “private hunt” at x time and join them then there is nothing they can do to stop me
For levity. . . probably a good opportunity to resurrect this. . .

What I’m pointing out in my post is the fact that anyone with lvl4 protection can hunt a t6 planet and get just as much loot as the hard workers. That’s not cooperative, that’s leeching, and all those extra players that should be hunting on a lower tier are the extra that cause the bogged up connections in the first place.
This is what I mean by an invite only hunt, there is no way to stop someone from joining the hunt if they know it is happening, but if no one knows it is happening other then the people who were invited, then the odds of someone random joining is much much lower. The Hunt leader can try to forbid people who he invited on to the hunt from telling other people about it.
But regardless, even if a few random people show up. I am sure that is much more preferable for the Original Poster to have a low % of random people not helping, then the 90% he claims are not helping.

tbh i rarely do anything on a hunt and i’m not afraid to admit it… i don’t tell anyone how to play the game, the same way i don’t let anyone tell me how to play the game…
Everyone has different roles and reasons they enjoy the game

The lag issues are not the fault of the players, this is on Boundless & internet connection issues.
Hmmm. The meteors won’t be high level without a lot of players showing up to begin with. How are “leechers” (aka: kids, noobs, lower level players, challenged players, multi-taskers, working players…) harming hunts in any way? They don’t impede your ability to play, to kill creatures, nor your ability to obtain the completed meteor box.

hes not saying that they are harming the hunts necessarily but that they are getting something for nothing by just “showing up” they are somehow entitled to the same loot that someone who worked hard to complete that meteor gets
my self i dont really care that much if someone “leeches” at a hunt but i can see a down the line prob with it
it create the mindset of why bring gear that costs time and mats to make when you can just show up with a loot stick and get the same stuff for free now there are less people actually hunting and meteor’s take longer to complete cuz of it

Sorry I didnt read the whole post, but yeah, i dont care if people “leech”, but I believe the mobs scale with player count. It seems that way, and that does affect the difficulty and of course the amount of materials needed to clear the meteor. So while I dont mind that in most cases, some hunts get pretty hairy. I figure if I go through a bow or so on a hunt i did my part. If I go through 2 bows and 5 stacks of revive augments…
Also good point on time to complete

It sounds like some people in this thread need to just stick to solo hunting

I hear you 
I do see their point. However…
There are lots of different people with different play styles. If the game allows everyone to receive rewards from the meteor, then that’s how the game works. Putting down other players doesn’t change/enhance the game in any way.

Thinking about it a little more… The meteors do get more exciting!
and this is where i get conflicted cuz maybe the game shod not cuz again right now its a 1 in every x hunt thing or not that big of a deal cuz the balance of afkers to hunters is balanced but all it takes is 1 to many hunters quitting…taking a break for that to tip and now high tier hunts become a nightmare to complete cuz the dps is not there for the size
one part of me des not want to restrict how people do hunts but i can see where the OP is comeing form and meteors are meant to be a co-op thing even if they are only doing chip damage or spamming healing bombs its atlest them trying rather then doing nothing
