Yesterday I was tked for no reason at all near spawn in pavlov... I wasn't doing anything not moving at all for like 10 seconds because someone at home was talking to me and some guy named Prophecy of war tked me and I ask him why he calls me loser. So I say you could at least say sorry but he proceed to call me all sort of names. So I stop talking to him. Later during the match I see him covering some entrance so I tk him because he pissed me a bit. Now his friend pvt.urrh or something start tking me too.

Anyway it just turned into a big tk fest until I talked to him again and asking him if I should keep doing it or if he wants to play the game instead he just calls me loser again so I stop tking seeing he is a kid but he kept tking me but I didn't care in the end all I wanted is for him to say sorry

I hate when you are shooting at enemies with a MG and your teamates run and leap through the window you are mounted in or when you are on a fence or ground they run through you and get shot, and I ask myself, what were they thinking but I still say sorry. But the last few days I have run into intentional Tkers, as soon as you spawn they are standing in your spawn and killing you, because they got auto-balanced, and making kills for their weapon.

Yeah I hate that when I see a MG in a window I want to go thru I make sure he see me first by poking my gun in his face so at least he knows i'm there and that I might want to pass or I just wait for him to reload while I cover him and when he is reloading I go thru his window.

Also blockers are anoying I was trying to get a shot at someone but my teammate goes right infront of me before I have time to shoot... 3 seconds later we are both dead because he blocked my view of the guy I wanted to shoot.

.

I have killed a lot of people that poped his gun on his face because in that moment I fired to an enemie ... the best way that you will notice to an MG is giving he ammo ... the sound and the messege are very noticiable ... anyway , if you cros me position an I se an enemie I'll shoot for sure because a guy running attracts the atemption , the enemie will see you running and probably me just behind you... if I don't fire you will arrive to your next position , but the enemie too ... you will be safe but now I will be compromised becuse an enemie knows my position , an enemie that now is in a safe position and is planing wisely to shot my head because he can appear in a second knowing were I am , while I have to be looking for more enemies coming and for that guy that is planing to shot my head .

Cross in front your teams MG should be always your last option because you are really exposing him and helping the enemie ruining the LOS from your teams MG that maybe is keeping an important area .

Though I have not ever purposefully killed a teammate in game, I think its important to differentiate between a couple different versions of the "idiot stands infront of my view/shot dilemma."

A - You are a bit back from the window/view and some idiot blocks your view

B - You are pressed right up against the window and some idiot manages to get infront of you anyway.

C - You are looking down a hallway with an mg and some guy with a bolt (possibly not an idiot in this instance) jumps infront of you AT THE EXACT SAME MOMENT that a bunch of enemy charge around the corner.

In situation A I think its totally inexcusable to kill the friendly. Its possible he just didn't notice you, and since you are not right in the window, his move probably does not put you in any serious danger. In fact, chances are if you are getting a lot of kills in that window, that means he will be dead if he stands there for about 5 seconds. So the enemy will get him anyway.

Situation B is much more frustrating and I can understand the urge to just shoot him in this case, at least if you give him 5 seconds or so to change his mind. Although again, there are different ways to stand "in a window" and these guys tend to stand in the window in the way that gets you killed the quickest. So chances are if you wait 10-15 seconds he'll be dead anyway. But as long as you don't use this as an excuse to plug anyone in the back when you get the urge, I can understand this one.

In situation C, its not so much a question of the guy DESERVING to die, its just that he happens to show up at the exact moment that prevents you from killing about 5 guys. AND they are almost certainly going to kill him anyway at which point you will be very vulnerable. (Especially since in mowing him down, a bullet may very well hit you) I've never given in and just straight up mowed down a friendly in this situation yet but I have opened up the milisecond that I saw blood contact them, though of course at that point you don't know if they are dead dead or just soon to be.

And as for somebody jumping through a window that you are mounted in - yeah that guy probably deserves it. I mean a door is one thing, you expect people to go through doors. It would be physically impossible to pull that window manuever in real life with somebody already standing there - my favorite is when people do it when you are ACTUALLY FIRING one of the mounted heavy LMGs. I mean.....

If a team mate jumps in front of another team mate that is obviously covering that spot already, then yes, he deserves to die; regardless of enemies!

We thank this team mate for supporting RO2, but this team mate's brain is far too underdeveloped for this game.

I was behind cover, leaning out looking for an enemy I knew was there. Lo and behold, a teammate runs in front of me and peers out as well. I could've been about to pull the trigger! Grrr.

There's one player on servers I frequent, who usually only plays sniper - even when it's 2v2 or 3v3 and the rest of the server is bots. He usually avoids capping, and the game is usually me trying to push objectives against the enemy. Many times I've been tempted to TK or otherwise yell at him, but I don't want to get on the wrong side of his clan.
