Ranked - punish for friendly-fire

[quote=“Nail;c-225410”]some people need a reminder not to throw grenades, artillery strikes etc without checking for team mates

Not to mention some team-mates should pay more attention to audio cues, and not walk in front of the Fragger cooking the frag. The amount of idiots that walk in front of me at the wrong moment and punish me has reached a total of 8 since I started counting. 4 in one match due to a really aggressive proxy.

Just eat pineapple and stop complaining that it’s not a pancake.

Speaking of pancakes… kinda un-related note I just realized. I’ve probably been team-killed more to poor proxy mine placement in ranked than anything else. Anyone else?

Some spots are just stupid, don’t make sense, and enable more of an advantage to the enemy than your team. Which… also fits the persona of some players.

Why do you think people hate Proxy players on their team when ff is on? Most of them are too dumb and put the mines in spots that help your enemy more than you.

Bad Nader players are worse though. Some are really good albeit the accidental martyrdoms, others are absolutely horrendous. They just fire their nades away into the mass of players below them killing all 10 people in the server including, some-fuckιng-how, themselves.

Btw, funny thing, if you punish one player enough for his autokick (after autovote for kick), you won’t be able to punish anyone anymore in that game, so you can’t kick or just punish anyone else after that lol :#

Yeah like right on the generator on Bridge :facepalm:

But nothing will beat a Nader that martyred with no enemy in sight and disabled our EV.

I have a clip recorded where an enemy Skybro disables their own EV from full HP with his airstrike - wiping half of his team in the process.
I think it was intentional though, because he wasn’t a bad player at all, and he was top scoring despite the whole teamkilling. He just got mad because they had an unranked Rhino who didn’t contribute anything, and they practically already lost.

Should playing suicide Proxy at the generator in the map Bridge be punishable?

Sounds like a reportable bug to me. Doesnt seem like intended functioning.

As @“Zar.” said, with enough punishes gets you kicked from the match. (Along with a leaver penalty). There’s definitely some areas which could be improved though. I like the idea of kills from objectives not counting towards this vote system (Thanks @ThunderZsolt). I’ll pass on the ideas.

This is the old tk revive from Wolfenstein. Anyone who punishes for that should probably just uninstall the game anyway.

Ranked is so mind numbingly frustrating due to some very clueless people. Yesterday I was playing a game on a Euro server and the other team got a quick plant and blew the wall (quick as in 5 minutes into the round). They started calling surrender votes. Really?

After playing alot of ranked matches, I dont enjoy pubbing as much due to the constant spam and mayhem. I would love it if they would please turn FF on for pubs or have competitive style pubs rather than min lvl xyz.

True but it is a gameplay that is not obvious to all players. I cannot remember when I played as Phoenix and we had trouble getting the EV through the barricade in Bridge, our Proxy player tried a double mine throw, suicided, killed 2 other team mates instantly and I revived her mid air even before she landed and got punished 2x for team TK. It’s one of the hazards of soloing or duo without proper mindset on objectives.

EV started it’s roll but seriously? Bang bang boom is better than fidgeting with a mine plant that needs guarding and camping.

Same is true for throwing airstrikes and artillery barrages on objective targets. Players are not supposed to punish their team mates for taking out a target, but then, from a developer stand point, how do you implement a measure for making an accidental TK?

more importantly, people dont seem to realize that the laser on the ground means theres air support any second and they just walk over it.

then they TK me.

this is why i stopped playing ranked, stupid people being stupid
