Hypothetical friendly-fire worst-case scenario?

[BLuE_ZeRO]

Need to factor in brain lag. Sometimes it can take people 4 or 5 dead teammates to realize that they are killing their own team.

[Genuk]

that would be bad...

I dont think running over your teammates will happen, its a pretty big world. If you get run over its your own fault

[Airlift]

So here is human lameness factor at work: The grief players in this game will attempt to give people grief points by getting in front of their vehicle or walking into their fire. The good news is that you inherently get to kill them for it

[Hamma]

Yea, I wonder how they plan on adressing it

[Airlift]

It becomes a problem if you get a pack of them together, but away from the spawn points it probably won't be a factor because they would only be able to give a few and then would have to go find the guy again. I guess we'll just have to be extra careful around the bases and report any organized grief outfits.

Now that's the kind of answer I like to hear. If I run you over, you should have gotten out of the way!!!! heehee

well if im in a galaxy and I see a line of troops im gonna see how many I can mow down with some N.O.E. manuvers (j/k)

Hopefully it won't often be like BF1942 with the accidental TKs often devastating. Likt artillery taking out an APC full of troops and some nearby soldiers....That really pissed me off when I did that once.

Lol,

These situations are funny, I'd laugh my ass off if someone did it.

FraBaktos is currently in the lead with the highest accidental grief-point accumulation in one mistake.

Two fully loaded galaxies = more points than my suggested worstcase scenario.

Alright, formulate some more than please, its quite funny. Ways you could make just one mistake and end up with enough grief-points for at least weapon-disabling.

Maybe FraBaktos's scenario, but with the added un-luck of your own galaxy's corpse landing on another grounded fully loaded galaxy. It'd be quite unfortunate if that ever happened and it'd be FRIGGIN HILARIOUS from a spectator's point of view!

The worst case we could come up with (and the one that made us change our grief system to compensate) was:

A newbie with a Galaxy cert advertises that a Galaxy is available. He gets three gunners, two MAXs, six soldiers, and a Marauder with three people in it in the back hold.

Now...unknown to him, another newbie does the same thing nearby.

Upon launch, the two Galaxies somehow collide at nax speed and everyone on board dies.

With the old grief system, that would have resulted in a suspension of your account for about a month.

Lol. Obviously, we've changed the system...but it was pretty amusing when we realized it.

No n00bs in game...hmmm...this was bad why??

[Hamma]

It would be ammusing to watch anyway
