I really hate that too man. Especially when I'm using a longer range bot and a knifefighter is blocking me. Dude, other than being a human shield, you're freaking useless here! Get out of the way!

I can't believe it just happened again.
A fookin dumb Rhino pilot kept running into me for 30 SECONDS, while i kept running into him to avoid being pushed out of my cover, as i knew what would be coming if i leave my cover. Finally that idiot succeeded to push me 1m out of my cover and my full health Gareth was blown away by missles. What a stoopid arse... I just left that match, sorry for the rest of the team.

Well, I was pushed by a Fujin some time ago. On Yamantau, near our second beacon. I saw that our Gareth ran for the center, so my Tulu Doc ran to the left (covered bridge), to capture beacon and provide cover fire from there. And Tulu Fujin was shooting me, at first, and then bumped at me and continue bumping me until I got out of cover and died due to Treb Fury.
I just don't know why people are doing that. Hope they will read this thread and learn not to.

Of course it occassionally happens to me too, that i block someone as i am to close to him, trying to support him. But i always step back as fast as i can, because if my mate dies, my chances to die increase aswell.

Even if he is running for a beacon - either I can catch up and we will both get a beacon, or he would catch it earlier than me, providing several seconds time advantage to our team.

It drives me crazy when that happens. Once, when my Galahad's shield broke, I retreated, but some lame Raijin was locking the path that I was using to escape, and as he/she walked I was pushed back into the lion's den, where I was immediately killed. And that's just the most recent time. It happens at least once every three battles to me. Retreating bots should have the right to get out of there without these wierdos blocking my way.

This scenario happens to me at center beacon in Yamantau. People keep pushing while the Red Team have Tridents.

I like playing MR bots, like RDB, TuluDoc, Molot Griff or sometimes even Pin Jesse. And I would like to ask all those Taran\Orkan\Thunder players: Guys, watch where are you going! Pay attention! Recently on Canyon map I poured down rain of 4xTulumbas at Raijin+Rhino at the center beacon, and then Leo+PDB arrived. I was going to backpedal to safety and reload, but some eager player in Taran Fujin wanted to go into the fray so badly, so he basically dragged me into the heat of a battle. Of course all his and red's taran shots landed on my poor Doc, and of course we died, me first and Fujin just moments later. Guys! If somebody is BACKPEDALLING - just let him do so. He most probably has his reasons. I've had this happen to me and I'm sure I've done it once or twice by mistake. In most cases, I think it's due to the fact of not knowing what the other player is doing. Sometimes this is experience, sometimes the other player does makes unexpected moves. One example would be when I hit rush on my Ancilot to get past a player that is moving to the left, I try to move to get around them only to have the player move right into my path. I think that the bot in the front should always have the right of way as they can't see who is coming up behind them. However, it can be pretty irritating when you expect them to do one thing and they do another.

However, it can be pretty irritating when you expect them to do one thing and they do another. Yep, that's I like playing in relevant league, or two tiers below :-D In relevant to my skillset league 90% of people do what's logical, and you can almost hear music going on You unload your RDB, move back, Carnage is taking step forward and giving you his Ancile, catching incoming rockets; You run near Taran Lancelot, there are red Gareth in front; Lancelot moves back, you unload your missiles, Lancelot moves forward and catches incoming fire; You see enemy hiding behind building, look at teammate, he goes left, you go right, teamwork happens. And in "three leagues down" situation you feels like you are genius. You can predict enemy movements and be everywhere at the same moment; taking center at Springfield, while shooting midrange onto reds at the "docks" beacon, then see your home beacon overrun - eject into another bot, defend home, run at "farm" beacon, re-capture it, run at the center again... But when people are just SLIGHTLY below your skillset - that is the time when confusion happens. p.s. Wow, writing all that I realized that I might be annoying for better players :-D Please, feel free to tell me if I'm screwing gameplay in some way when you see me.

He most probably has his reasons. Somebody did exactly this to me earlier today. Except he wasn't just in the way, I'm sure he was using me as a shield. I did manage to get by him before getting totally killed, but I was smoking out of everywhere. I turned away from the enemy when I was reloaded and emptied everything I had into that 'teammate', which I know does absolutely nothing, but I had to let him know it wasn't at all appreciated. I then got promptly killed for my troubles, but I didn't care at that point. With friends like those, who needs enemas. Still, I wonder how that looked to the red guys watching. Hmm, now there's a though for my ultimate weapon thread -- one I can turn on my own bonehead teammates!

The first time it happens, I chalk it up to accidentally tapping the Fire button. If it continues, I sometimes follow them and use them for cover ..

If it continues, I sometimes follow them and use them for cover .. My fat thumbs seem to hit the fire button versus the ability button on start almost every time. I stinks with Tarans because I'll empty them so I have a full load when engaging red.

Most people in most games can't hit crap, so you are lucky there is no friendly fire, especially with thunders...

I think it helps a lot with becoming a better player. Of course getting a 10in tablet may help too
