Sitting on Other Players

(schmeisser) #1

This is question of “Player Etiquette”:

I’m playing Fueldump as a mobile MG42 gunner, doing pretty well, lots of good kills. I notice I can’t traverse the gun fully, realize a teamate is sitting on me. He gets off, I resume firing, no harm done. He does it again, so I put 1 round in his foot as a warning. He walks away, I start firing, he sits on me again, So I TK him. He lodges a complaint against me, then Panzerfausts me twice after respawns. I file complaints, he calls a vote, I get kicked by the admin. A jokes a joke, but if a teamate is repeatedly harassing and TK’ing me for his own amusement, seems like I’m justified in retaliating, espescially since he’s messing up my very effective support fire. Should I have ignored a jerk who’s screwing up my game?

No soldier will ever sit into friend fire , or shoot friend because he just wants…
So he is stupid I think , and he should be kicked…
Using panzerfaust , Mg42 , grenades , mortars , flamethowers , snipers , is NOT cheat so nobody should be angry because NORMAL playing (I always hear panzer llama , when somebody use panzerfaust , so panzerfaust must be removed from game ?! - NO , he will make one , two , seldom more kills and then he often die , because he weak with pistol … )

Ummm, did you try typing and asking him not to do that? Sometimes new players don’t realise it hinders you’re freedom when do stand on you…

nah the key to that situation is to stalk him after he spawns - then fire 10 rounds into him taking his health down to 5 - then run off before he sees you - thereby making him easy picking for enemy and you dont get complaint

enough of that will force him off server

did it to this noob who ended up chasing me across the map for ages - HAHA

I like DanyBoys view :wink:
Unfortunately it will probably lead to retaliation. Lets not have talk of him being a “newbie” who “didnt know”. That only applies in 1 case out of 10, and furthermore, judging from his reaction, probably a 1/100 in this case.
If hes an a-hole… all bets are off, complain, tk him, tbleed him, talk to an admin… go to a more professional server… or switch teams :slight_smile:
