Jammer grenades can kill if they set off a mine which blows somoene up either directly or through other things (namely Spitfires) exploding. Strange things happen.

yeah it was probably a mine dude. The game just for some reason read it as the jammer killing you not the mine.

Probably a glitch. I've got loads of screenshots showing funny kills like that. It IS funny though.

I have 2 explenations:

- either, the screenshot was modified;

- or there's a bug (only 1 more to add to the list, lol).

Sputty is right. That has happened to me more than a few times. I am sure you all have seen Flail kills that do not correspond to an empire

I saw a Jammer Nade kill before, just assumed it was a glitch with the jammer - mine explosion.

The one that really confuses me is the REK kill in one of the PoTD's...

Its weird rarely a jammer nade does dmg to a person. One time i was trying to do the punisher bug in the spawn of a tower and i hit a guy with a jammer and it took away dmg (only like 15 at least 25 at most) and i got 200 greif from it.

The rek kill? I've seen that. It's a glitch. What i BELIVE happened was: Maybe he got killed after hacking a veh pad and the hacked veh pad exploded, killing other guys. Just a thought.

The Bio Lab amp one, I THINK I know how that happened.

I remember one time, I was taking down a generator with a squad, and there were two other people with me. I left quickly, but the other two didn't make it out. The kill window said "LASHER VS GUY" and "ChewyLSB LASHER Other VS Guy".

I think what the game does is if the game can't identify exactly what killed someone, it goes by the last weapon the user either used or was damaged by.

As far as I can tell, the only kill which isn't recognized is the generator explosion, and maybe the capital shields. So when the generator exploded, the one guy never took damage, so it made it a lasher suicide kill because it was the last weapon he used. The other death I accidentally hit him, so it made it look like a teamkill.

So what I believe is that the guy was hit by an AMP, but then the amp user logged off. Then, the capital shield went up, killing him, but it couldn't locate who killed him.

Why the game didn't just say [AMP] as the killer is a problem, but the game may take precedence and make the "Bio Laboratory" a higher priority list. This was probably really confusing, so... if you can get it, well, good job :P
