This is one of the big things that separate casual play from ranked. [/quote]

Do you know why FF wasn’t in ranked previous to season one? (I am fairly sure it wasn’t in comp at least…)[/quote]

As far as I know it’s always been present. That’s the entire idea of the mode, to be introduction to competitive, with all the mechanics and proper teamsize.

that’s so weird… I don’t know why I’m almost sure it wasn’t at one point… oh well.

FF was added sometime in the middle of the ‘pre-season’ so you are not wrong. It wasn’t there originally as the friendly fire rules weren’t really set in stone yet and there was no method to punish teamkillers. They worked all that stuff out in dirtycups/pugs first before adding it to ranked.

I am afraid FF would be abused in pubs.
On some COD 1 servers (back in 2003 :D), the one who fired his mates was the one taking the damage. Could it work on DB for pubs ?
Else, I would keep it as it is.

So you punish the person doing nothing wrong and let the potato who walked in front of your gun run off scott free and not learn anything? What a garbage idea.

It’s always been there… 0.o
Or at least, it’s been there as early as August 2015… I got to level 7 in less than a day… and I’m pretty sure we only needed to level 5 back then to play competitive… whatever the case is, I ended up playing ranked within the first 3 days of playing this game; FF was there.
