It is easy to fix the "please carry me" issue in Incursions that have been exploited by cheaters
It's really not rocket science. Once two paired up players move in one direction, the other partner cannot move in the same direction. I never understood why this was not implemented at the onset. If players cannot move in the same direction then obviously nobody can request to be carried because they'll have to do their part to finish up their side.
If this has already been suggested before, I sincerely apologize. But then it begs the question, why wasn't this very simple suggestion not heeded by the game dev team? Like seriously.
