No kill message servers... the way to go!

[MadTommy]

We want to go this way, it was the first thing we turned off

But...

TK's dont show and we have a rule to apologise when you tk, also admins need to see if it is a serial tk'er

I have posted requesting this function but didnt get a reply

This is true.. i made 2 TKs.. but both times i heard a voice say something like.. 'hey he's on our side' or similar. Which allowed me to know & apologise for both even without a message. Not sure if you get this every time though.

Delayed kill messages gives you the best of both worlds.
I'd like to play on a server that delays for up to 15 seconds. That would be tense

I can appreciate the realism, but my concern is that inexperienced players will be SO afraid of the unknown that they will set up shop in a window and will stay there for the entire round. e.g. - "Did I kill him? Better just stay here in case hes out there waiting for me."

Totally love no kill messages

All I need is the puff of blood

I have put ours on delay 10 seconds

Will see how it plays

I am not sure if I like it too much. I played on one the other day and I was a regular Michael Wittmann in my PzKpfW4, and it was fairly obvious when I killed tanks. The problem was wen I switched to HE, I had no idea if I killed people behind cover or messed up and fragged my own guys. I also had no indication of who killed me so I could congratulate them.

Loving this server, thanks Mad

Just played, loved it.

I like that setting as well, It also adds some tactical play in ranged engagements as you can "fake" your foes out by Diving to prone in a hole or behind something, Allow time for him to close or aim at something else, then pop back up over cover to cap your ill fated opponent

I like it on many occasions, but the amount of tking I received was just so horrendous.

I was looking at my own teammate who was across the street on different building, then he just blew my head away. It was only about 30m distance so it was very clear that he was on my side. No apologies either.

Wounds?

Glad some you you are enjoying it.

Not sure why no kill messages would increase TKs, can't see nor have i noticed a connection.

Because some players think every tk they carelessly made was an enemy, with no notification to warn them that it was a team kill (except for the whole character yelling thing but I guess these guys just ignore those all together). So I would get tked on same spot by same guy
