Pilots purposely trying to kill own teammates

When I run my sniper bots I play the ultra-long ranged bots first and fight them mid-range as hard as I can. I even cap beacons with them when possible. I drop that bot first because I do not want to have it as my last choice and be unable to maneuver or fight back effectively at shorter ranges. It's an effective strategy in bot usage as most would agree. But I still get some 「bum-bum」 licking 「dookie」-for-brains that screw with me because of my bot choices.

When I drop my Hydjin it's because I have a hankering to camp a bit and see where the match is going while doing as much damage as possible to the faster opposition. That way maybe my teammates can take them out quicker. I'm not looking for kills so much as the harassment factor. I'm actually trying to be the bait. Many players get tired of being hammered and come for the Hydra chuckers. That's an opportunity for my teammates, if they are paying attention, to hit these maddened blinkered idiots from the sides and rear as they race blindly for me.

Sometimes I actually like to camp. I still try to get the beacons but I'm more likely to camp on the one I can get to depending on the map. Maybe move out towards a second and hammer any opposing players that get close. Because it can get tiresome trying to chase down beacons in a lumbering iron mountain and get little to no damage for Ag. Or almost get there after noone started for the beacons to begin with and have some selfish 「wee-wee」head beat you to them by one or two steps even after they've obviously seen that you are going for the beacon.

My very first move is always to start for the first or next closest beacon depending on the map. It's now reflex. Because I hate losing because a bunch of cat turds want to sit in the litterbox at spawn or just want to brawl without regard to the beacons. Even if I see another player pass me in the direction of my target beacon I keep moving towards it because the number of times I've watched that same player get within inches of the beacon and stop short is astounding as well as infuriating.

When other player dare to screw with me over my bot choices and start harassing me in game I bounce. If they do not have the respect to let others play their game as they play their own then screw them, I'm not putting up with it. I'll go play another match and enjoy it while they play one man down. Because they are trying to force me to be one bot down without knowing how the match will develop. I may actually need the time that one bot could have afforded me at the end. And dropping it early cost us the match.

So annoying red or blue with some build constantly, not helping them ( almost useless support weapon) isn’t wrong ? Yes call me 「cotton headed ninny muggins」 if you want but if you annoy me ,I’ll annoy you as game allows you to use any setup you want then it allows me to do whatever I want too. And yes I’ll  rather have some brawler helping me out than those missiles sitting at 600m without any risk and accurate enough to hit anything.  I never said anyone should not  use this setup , but when to mech out is important even in tdm rather than playing with just one bot,however most of these guys are just campers due to which team loose. As I said above, I hate shocktrains too but atleast they help team a lot . Like it don’t annoy me when I am at brawling range trying to get kills when a guy at 600m steals it without taking any damage. 

I had a TDM match yesterday with a tanker. I didn't catch his name, but what else could he be starting a TDM match on Valley in a Gepard with mixed weaponry and standing at initial spawn facing the opposite direction? I gave him a nudge with my Kumiho and dashed to push him, in case he was AFK. He suddenly started moving, but was purposely presenting himself as a target. Yup, tanker. But, at least he was drawing fire for a bit from those of us who were trying. And yes, we lost that game!

If it was BR or DOM I could honestly understand why this would have happened to you. Though I can’t recall ever pushing a teammate into harms way, in those modes I will gladly stand there and let an enemy kill a camper on my team before I engage that enemy.

Even Hydra users should get to have their fun in TDM though.

TBH, 「wee-wee」s that act like this are the only reason I leave games early.  


Have had maybe 2 that pushed me or blocked me or otherwise made the game unplayabe, and with the stress of real life already pretty 「fluffernutter」ing high lately, I ain't got time to deal with some petty 「bum-bum hole」 who has nothing more than a pissed off cricket for a brain, jumping around in an empty skull, bouncing ideas off that only sound good to himself since he is in his own echo chamber, self validating his venting of low self esteem on teammates and his actions that lack any real sense of maturity.


No patience for it at all.


I don't run Hydras but I've had it happen to me in a Tempest Lance that I was actually taking beacons with and advancing with the brawlers in... whatever. Push me off my spot? Block me? Troll me? Later.  Get your kicks off of another dude, I'll play another match or another game.



In My Rather Salty Opinion, YMMV  

You don't think everyone has been there? If you want to be useful, chose a useful weapon.

All the time!

Spawn into Yama BR and be the ONLY one who goes for the beacon... 5 snipers standing behind you.

Time to break out the inquis and start trying to catapult them into the field! You're gonna lose the match anyway

In the same amount of time?  Work on math and reading comp neighbor.  A pinata and a noricum start out at the SAME level.  If you're fielding stock gear there's NO time difference.  If you're facing someone with gear that's double your level that's a 50% advantage in health and an almost 100% advantage in damage.  You're not even breaking his shield in the time it takes him to waste you.  Struggle to win?  Try harder.  Your suggested Leo is dead in less than one firing cycle vs. the Taran Haechi's I'm seeing without having done any damage.  That treb/nori can whittle at shocktrain bulgs and enemy snipers.  Its not much, but its more than your Leo would have done.  That Treb/Nori Leo was  a freebie gear from the Halloween event, and a workable place-holder while I upgraded other more effective gear.

Stay back?  Wouldn't want to struggle to win?  Too much effort?  Your profile says you're iOS expert.  Cap you weapons at 5-6 for a month and come talk to me about struggle and effort.  Is Treb/Nori Leo meta? No.  If that's all you were trying to say, then cheers!  Otherwise all you're managing to do is be sanctimonious and wrong at the same time.

You’re just lucky I had some words with pixonic about that type of bullying behavior. Some month ago when they messed with climbing abilities of the bots, they made it so fujin could be pushed around by any bot. Man I was pissed when some idiot in a galahad got inbetween my legs at the beginning of the game on snow map and spent 2 min pushing me around while i was just trying to get into battle with my fujin. I had to ditch that bot and two more cuz the dude wouldn’t let up.

They said that this kind of behavior wasn’t expressly forbidden in their game play but they would look into it. At least now you’re not getting pushed out in the open with no ability to retreat. So count your blessing.

On a side note, those people aren’t losses at what you’re running per say, they’re just pissed cuz they’re getting no backup and getting their butts handed to them.

When I’m in my fujin, I always focus on the enemy nearest a teammate that I can hit. I don’t care about getting hit as much as I do winning and I know that having 18 rockets come in one by one helping a friendly take down a guy, I don’t get many people pissed at me, and even then I just back em up, follow em with my shield to see if I can help. They usually let up if you go out of your way to help them.

Not sniper,  campers. Specially hydra builds as they are completely useless.  I wouldnt mind some people using them but when to mech out is important. Btw my smugness for dashhangar?  Lol I just mentioned it once because you cant do it with dash bots (like make fujin jump for a moment or push it etc). Also if you are on of those guys you better get some brain and know when to mech out even in tdm instead of firing those useless missiles for whole match
