If theres one thing I cant stand, its when your team mates, ( I use the term lightly ) constantly get all jammed up right behind you. I cant possibly move out of the way, such as to reload. So, I stand there like dumb 「bum-bum」, getting blasted to bits, because these guys are so desperate to get a kill, they have no regard for the other team members. Also, I strongly consider this issue to be a part of the minimal skill category. I cannot honestly remember doing this myself, ever. Heres a radical idea, try paying attention, its not that difficult. Thanks to the blues that are guilty of this. ( Gold League 1 )

You mean a little battlefield awareness? Not happening. I’m in gold 1 too, and 99% of the time my teammates are complete morons. Once in a great while you find somebody who gets the concept of teamwork, but that’s very, very rare unless you find a good clan to squad with.

Yes, morons would be more appropriate than team mates.

Yes, it's called Teamwork.

I have the same issue. Now, if any of them get too close, I’ll just move somewhere else. I noticed it’s usually the masters guys on the team.
Another one that gets me killed is when they shoot the leach attached to me.

I think you see a bit more teamwork in Champions League with the randoms. So hang in there. Yesterday, I got jammed between 3 Titans and couldn't move. I was trying to move out ahead of them to get a beacon. Oh well, we all died. LOL! I don't think it was necessarily their fault though. Titans are big, slow, and clunky. Get 3 of them together, it's hard to maneuver around them. We need rear view mirrors.  Or... how about this Pixonic... bots that can go through other bots and walls? |

OP, I see this in Diamond frequently. The blocking thing mostly goes away further up as its an invitation for someone to go for the bunch like a Jun or a corona leech while phantoms will be taking the stragglers. Before i initiate an advance i take note of the potential blockers and have a visual of where nearby players are. Works mostly. Field awareness is critical.

i honestly think there are a bunch of macro spamming accounts that just set their bot to move forward nonstop, and collect at end of game, rinse/repeat.
I am frequently pushed from behind from fast moving small bots (everything from Cossacks to Phantoms) that run in a straight line and either A) is a player that does not know that side to side movement exists in this game, or B) are those movement spamming accounts that are just collecting end-game Ag. *shrug*

That carrier map is the worst for it. Try to make some room for myself and lo and behold another 2 or 3 team members decide they need to be on the same side ramp as me. Guess what? We all have nowhere to go FFS.

That’s why we need the Friendly Fire or Fragging module.

Now that I was forced to start over, this became a bigger problem. I have a pinata build, so shooting then ducking behind cover is important for me. I'll have someone join me, then block my out. Or, worse, not just block, but push into me as they try to shoot around the same corner.
Just step back and around! How hard is that?!
All in all, I'm still getting 「grape」 by the unequal matchmaking, so either way I'm not too upset about it. Just roll with the punches.
