When Martyrs Become Cheaters in Trials of Osiris

Playing Trials of Osiris, trying to help someone go flawless and we get off to a good start (4-0 in our first game). [b]Then one of their teammates waves at us and suddenly we are all kicked. [/b] We checked their prior games and it looks like this group of players waits until their opponent (us) wins four rounds, then boots the entire lobby from the game, including themselves. They are effectively saying "we can't win so neither can you". I won't post a link to their accounts for obvious reasons, but I assure you we looked up their history and saw a pattern. Sure, it's the first game and it's not that big of a deal, but this is still network manipulation and negatively impacts anyone on the receiving end. [b]I don't want this to turn into a witch hunt or name shaming. Please do not message these players or attack anyone. We just want this unique kind of cheating brought to attention so it might be prevented. Stay cool, and thanks for watching.[/b] [spoiler]When you believe someone is cheating the best thing you can do is use the in-game Report Player function: https://www.bungie.net/en/Help/Article/12960For more information on what Bungie considers when investigating reports of cheating, see the following help article: https://www.bungie.net/en/Help/Article/11929Bungie actively investigates network manipulation and other forms of cheating.

  • I don't play ToO much so I'm lost. I thought it was a win if the other team left? That seems like an extreme oversight if the other team can leave and it boots you as well. In all other crucible game in Destiny it counts as a win by forfeit (a plain win actually).
