Why yes.... I am this stooooopud.
« on: October 07, 2014, 12:04:30 AM »
How does one "Shoot" One's self?

If a Base is flashing red am I trying to kill it or defend it?

I obviously have to learn to use the radio.

You shoot yourself because of the kill shooter feature.

If a base is flashing you are trying to defend it.


Use your mic by pressing F12 for in-range comms or T for people on vox (numbered voice channel).

Or by pressing teh key combinations under each radio box (/, alt+/, shift+/)

The "kill shooter" causes you to be damaged or killed if you shoot a player from your country.

If you are a bishop and the enemy is disco'd by chance you can killshoot yourself despite it being a enemy...

Quick tips.  Shoot at planes with red icons, don't shoot at planes with green icons.  If the starts to fill your windscreen, pull up.

If you are in a manned ground gun and hit friendly planes/vehicles, they don't take damage (and neither do you) but you get the "you have shot yourself x times" in the text buffer. Friendly GV/GV or Plane/Plane shots damage the shooter - hence the term "Killshooter".

Also friendly plane/GV shots apply to the killshooter. I have more than once killed myself in my mossie with my own quad-hizukas when I was chasing a bandit over our town and my 20mm fell on friendly GVs below. Ouch!  :eek:

Certain ords too!  I launched a rocket from an FW190AF to vulch an aircraft taking off and I got the killshot yourself message because a friendly was also flying through my rocket strike.  I took no damage.
