Say you're moving in a team of randoms...

Ah... But I'm not average. I can speak French... In russian.
This thread is getting off topic. Everyone! Keep it alive while I go to sleep.

Pull the trigger, the reason he's in my los is probably because someone moved in front of him and he moved to the side. No need to repeat that mistake.

[Littleman]

I attempt to hold fire and reposition myself, preferably behind something a bit more solid.

Not sure how the idiotic ADAD strafing we saw in PS1 will pan out in PS2 however, it might just be down right suicidal in general against a disciplined opponent. The videos of E3 looked more like newbs whom had never played an FPS before, or were stuck in the CoD mindset where they had to ADS for every range.

It depends, if we're in the middle of movement and it makes sense that he's just not aware that he is in front of my line of fire then I'll avoid TKing him.

If I'm a locked down MAX covering a door and he jumps in front of me then I'm going to keep firing.

[Electrofreak]

I'd hold fire, voice macro "MOVE" a few times, and then shoot if he's in a position where I cannot fire effectively around him.

Option 5)(Humor) Force the developers to allow light assaults, medics and engineers to piggyback on heavy assaults and MAXs

This =D Not HA tho. Their backs would break with powered armor =O

Keep firing... If he cost me a kill: shoot at his corpse and t-bag him... Oh wait this is PS not Halo.

...umm usually give a quick warning shot in the shoulder or back. Most people will jump to the side and turn when they get hit from behind. Their shields will recharge and it gives a quick message to get out of the way and watch out next time.

If you run with randoms its your fault. Complain to yourself.

[ArbitraryDemise]

I crouch and step to the side, so that I don't cross into someone else's line of fire while still clearing my own line of fire.

[Meriv]

get distance and use him as a bait, or a meat shield is always useful even better if enemy has a small mag.

[Wayside]

Move a slight bit to the left/right.

If it continued, call the player(s) out and see if they're capable of/interested in learning from their mistakes. If they're not, find another group.

Though honestly this is the exact kind of PUG element that motivates me to join an outfit. Doesn't really matter what an outfit is about, there's a good chance they're going to promote a basic set of skills like...

don't put your face in front of a squadmates gun
and
don't walk your MAX in front of the guy who's about to throw a grenade >_<.

[Zulthus]

Well, if it ends up being where you can clip through friendly soldiers, I'd just walk through him.

[Kyros]

I'll usually stop firing and wait a bit when someone walks in front of me, unless my target made me angry somehow, then I'll plow through anyone to get to them. That rarely happens though as i do my best to avoid those grief points. It's also why I love the Lancer so much, this usually happens when taking out spawn tubes but I'll often have friendly maxes run in front of me. The lancer has a slight delay between clicking and actually firing the projectile, so if you're quick enough you can just point your gun up in the air. A wasted shot but you don't hurt "friendlies".

[Bags]

In ps1 I'd blow people who got in front of me away, usually they would just hop in at the last second to killsteal anyhow.

[Trignite]

I am more concerned about being ran over when repairing and stuff but yeah i would just move a bit if someone was in my sights if he was being stupid though i might kill him ;p depends on the punishment they give for tking
