What happens to fraggers ?
« on: January 01, 2007, 07:10:14 PM »
Probably the Xmas period and bored kids but I am seeing more and more fragging going on - Thank goodness for killshooter!

An example I filmed in the link below and I would add this one was going on some while before I started filming. - So what happens to people who ignore the Vox warnings and carry on ?

If killshooter was turned off I would not hesitate to shoot back.

Fly in front of him, he will get the damage.  There is also a report system.  Open the roser and right click on the name.  You will see the option.  If they are doing something that is against the terms of service, HTC will have it logged and can deal with it.  I am not sure this would be considered against the terms of service.  If it's anoying to you, it may be anoying to others and I am sure something can be done.

It is possible this is a new player and hasn't fingured out who to shoot.  So offering help sometimes will do the trick.

Judging by his stats he likes to fly the D3A1 (and has three kills in it!), so perhaps he has been driven mad by the fear.

How can one be a fragger with killshooter enabled?

He can't hurt you, so I don't get what the whining is about.

Yeah, I agree.  I'll even fly my plane into his tracer stream to make sure he gets a killshooter death just to teach him a lesson the hard way.

WOW, I agree with Ack on something :eek:

I do the same.  When I see a nooby firing away and ignoring warnings about shooting at friendlies, I slow down and fly straight and level.  I even give them a vox message letting them know I am slowing down for their target practice enjoyment.   They usually learn in short order that GREEN = GOOD.  :D

LOL well I did try to fly in front but he still couldn't shoot well enough to get killed. It's that that riled me most!

The area was under attack and so tracers cann't be ignored and they do divert your attention. This was one of those guys that ignores Vox and does his own thing.

I doubt you have had one shooting at you, but it does tend to screw with your SA as he moves from friendly to friendly and the next set of tracers you get tend to require evasives until you discover its the same twit back behind you again!

I don't know what was going on just prior to your film, but what you posted shows only a single enemy panzer -- so "messing with your SA" seems a moot point in this instance.

As for that same old twit . . . i'd say about half of my squad, myself included, end up shooting at each other in a situation like you posted (where we up at a field "under heavy attack" to find there are 6 of us airborne and the autoack has already dispatched the clumbsy/unlucky attackers).  Why bail?  I upped to shoot something, dangit, and if it has to be a squaddie, so be it!!!:D

Flying through hangers to make the sortie "meaningful" is a distant second . . .

I won't even mention the M-3 supply runs . . .

I was going to respond something like "we have certain standards", but they let me in, so the bar can't be that high . . . :D
