compensation issue

regwhiteboy's Photo regwhiteboy Mar 27 2012

okay so this all started wen i joined a match in my ferdi, i had a song playin on youtube in the backround and right as the match started it ended so i breifly switched tabs to put on a new on song, i couldent have been gone for mor than a 1-2mins max and wen i get back some idiot in a KV-5 apperantly decided it would be a great idea to TK me and he knocked my whole tank out and not suprisingly we lost the match and i was compensated a whole 800 credits for the whole damn ferdi personally i think they should increase comp for being TK especially in in somthing like a tier 8

First off that must have sucked. Second off why did the devs put in FF (Friendly Fire)?!?!?!?!? When ever I play games like this that have ff I am always scared of some person on our team just killing me and other making us lose the match. FF should not be included in games just sayin'.

I agree 800 is not enough for intentional TK. It should be the value of the vehical destroyed plaus the XP the Tk'er would have earned. Thw only consolation is when the team member turns blue he is fair game any body can shoot him from either team and get the hit points. Was on a match where Tiger II tk'ed 2 team members then every ony at spawn turned on him and shot he did not stand a chance.

1. No, he shouldn't have TK'd you.

2. Compensation is minimal to prevent griefing.

3. What if an enemy scout had taken you out because a song was more important than you doing your job?  Wait until between battles to do that stuff.

Because it means that you have to watch where you're aiming.  If I didn't have FF, playing my hummel would become so easy... all those shots I didn't take, because I might have splashed an ally...

If ur gonna play........play. game first. if u want music set it before the game, others are depending on your gun.

The moral of this story:  Don't ever go AFK during a match for something stupid like a song on youtube.

You got what you deserved. Going afk to change songs just wastes the time of your team mates. Try being more considerate to your fellow team members and maybe you won't get TKd in the future.

There should be no friendly fire allowed. The number of times someone has driven in front of my gun as i shot and been blown apart is super annoying. Then you get banned as a result.

I really don't like how the Compensation mode works.  I've been blasted by guys and not able to cover repairs from full health.  The worst thing is people who usually TK you are players who do poorly in a match anyways and I think... it's % based where they proceed to generate like 7,000 credits and you get like 500 from them.

Also I hate how if you track someone you get fined a massive amount of credits.  I had tried to track a guy who was purposely trying to block my retreat and kill me once.  He then killed me for firing at him, and I had to pay him a massive fine for the damage I did to his tracks.

I wasn't even blue!  The whole system seems bonkers, especially if you track and enemy in a game, you don't generate credits for it.

But I'll go fix it for you.  It seems someone's been swinging the -1 bat a bit much...
