Nexon is preparing to go to war against The First Descendant players who “AFK farm” in the looter shooter, likening it to “inappropriate behavior” and preparing measures to combat those abusing the title’s matchmaking system for their gain.

The Nexon team put out a PSA on X (formerly Twitter) on July 16, listing off the three main “guidelines” of matchmaking in The First Descendant: No unauthorized programs, no AFK during co-op, and no non-play farming. There was nothing mentioned about a specific admin crackdown on anyone caught breaking these guidelines after the PSA was shared, but the team did mention the devs are already “working on measures” to deal with bad actors taking advantage of hard-working Descendants during missions.
