Teamkill ?

(Patriotqube) #1

I have a few questions

Yesterday i played with the arty and suddenly i managed to teamkill 1 of my poor teammates :wink:

But when i accidentally hits them with a handgun it dosent seem to hurt them, and neither has I experienced beeing teamkilled

so what weapons can teamkill?

and is that somthing that will be able to be changed on servers, so we can set FF on or off as we would like?

oh and sorry to the guy i TKā€™ed, i did do a v45 instantly only to noticed i was mugging you :slight_smile: in DB sorry is v46 apparently (if i remember correct)

bullets dont harm mates while explosives do. so you can tk with airstrike and grenades atm

i find an Oops! v63 or sorry v64 useful. a lot. or even a v83 ā€œi did itā€
Was going to start a vsay thread but i expect an update to that is a long way off.

i dont like the tk assist.

iirc you lose 200XP for nade tks, which seems a tad high for something which is usually accidental and often the fault of the victim, though we could do with a (friendlies only this time) ā€˜grenade!ā€™ announcement like QW so its easier for them to avoid :).

I think itā€™s -25 for grenade, and -200 for airstrike. And I think c4 can teamkill as well, -25? but not sure.

But IMHO, just remove those xp penalties all together, even if we get FF servers at some point. Better use something else to punish teamkillers, getting negative xp for explosives and grenades never helped against that, and is only annoying for everyone.

Plus a grenade boumcing (and landing) sound and pre-explosion sound cue (ā€œI blow in 0.X secondsā€ or ā€œBeepā€, like the Strogg shrapnel-nade.).
