Greif system is messed up.


I am at near 1000 greif and am just trying not to get greif to let it go down. Im running around in a max and hit a rock. I get greif. Then the timer. This has been happening. They have something fucked up with the greif system.

no, you just can't fire off your gun like a retard every time you see an enemy, most likely hitting teammates in the back, which I'm guessing you do

Fact of life, you don't get 1000 grief for running into rocks, however you do get 1000 grief for repatedly shooting your own teammates despite the flashing red icon in the middle of your screen alongside your mounting grief points.

Grief is very sensitive, and I think its better that way. There are some parts of the system which I can sympatize with, collision grief in a game with lag and CSHD such as this, means tank drivers tend to get a lot of grief.

There are also some weapons which are extremely griefing. Maelstrom being the worst imo. Once you are past 200 grief, just about every stray grenade that lashes one friendly is instant 100+ grief. around 500 grief, a 1/2 second burst of primary that clips a friendly is instand 100 grief as well.

Maelstroming a massive enemy force, I got 1000 grief in about 20-25 minutes. Its easy to avoid, however, it was too tempting to killwhore with the mael. 25 minutes, 1000 grief, 200+ enemy kills, 2 friendlies.
The problem with mael is friendly lashing, I hit 6 enemies, and the chain-lash reaches up to me, lashes off me and hits people near me.

Despite having been grieflocked myself, I still have zero sympathy for people who complain about it. Although the Mael is hyperactively-grief-tastic I still probably had it coming.

Yeah I noticed that grief with the maelstrom seems to be a lot more. Accidently hit a vehicle with a grenade, instand 50 grief with only 200 grief.

Hmm, strange, because when I had a POUNDER MAX, a GRIEF MACHINE I always had less than 100 grief, always, except for that one time some asshat kept TKing me, but that grief was on purpose. It is damn near impossible to get 1000 grief on accident, unless you're being EXTREMELY stupid. Which you are, so I'm not suprised.

Getting grief by running into rocks and hurting yourself is not normal. Try logging in and out and if that doesn't fix it send a /bug.

it can happen

sometimes people get in your crossfire, especially with lashers, theyre slow and people run into them sometimes, lancers also have a delay, so one will shoot out when u dont want it to, and if it hits a max or vehicle it will give you quite a bit of grief, also magriders are grief hogs, theyre brakes suck so you drive into friendlys alot, people also get in the way of them

i dont like the grief system either, and im not a tker

I dont think ive ever had over 100 grief points before Im always pretty careful but yeah you do get stupid ppl sometimes, especially low battle rank infils that decide to crouch right in front of a spawn tube with their little AMPs trying to get cheap kills when the tubes are being destroyed then they have the audacity to call you a moron, that does'nt help your grief, what also pisses me off is that you sometimes get grief points for being run over by friendly vehicles, now surely thats not right

You are damaging the vehicle. It was put in so people wouldn't jump in front of vehicles to intentionally give them grief.

But why should i be punished for being run over?, for something that isnt my fault? I appreciate that shit happens and you will get run over because of lag and stuff like that but i shouldnt get grief points for it.
