BF2S Forums Team kills

Ive lost count of the number of TKs due to muppets driving over my mines. The idiots must think they are power ups as I always leave space for friendlys to go arround. And they always punish. (I'm too stupid too understand the game so I will punish you!)
An idea maybe a timer on the mines. For the first 15 secs its the engineers fault if a frendly hits his mine(to stop muppets TKing on purpose with no penalty). After 15 secs Its the driver who is punished for being stupid

The TK system is FUBAR

In the last week:
1: wake island
join server, join team , join squad ,spawn on squad leader
Im in the last slot in the back of a blackhawk. It has 10% health and missile lock is sounding. Im over the island so I bale and chute down. I look up and the BH takes a AA and goes down. Then I notice the word (TEAMKILLS) with my name on it and press tab AND I MY SCORE IS -24!! . Somehow Ive TKed everyone in the blackhawk? Ive been playing 10 secs  not used ANY weapon and I ve got  -24 points.

2:Gulf of Oman
Driving an APC when I notice a jeep heading towards me. Im an engineer so i pull completly off the road and wait for them to go past. The HUD shows the jeep as badly damaged so Im hoping for a repair point. The Jeep speeds up and slams straight into my STATIONARY apc. One loud bang later and Ive TKed 3 people for -12 points. Have a guess if they punished me? How can the Game punish the staionary driver? Why not punish the idiot who cant drive ?

I would like to see -10/-40 for a TK but only if they sort out the bugs (sorry ..features ;-) )

Press alt again and it will clear up.

I was on wake island today and I stopped my vehicle to pick these guys up I hit this guy and he shoots me which the first time I don't blame him but he kepted doing it with these other guys I think they were in the same squad, and so I bail out of vehicle and I plant a grenade in the vehicle as they were getting on and I tked them and they punish me  bunch of jerks i planted the nade only for revenge.

I had the same thing as cannon-fodder only i was chasing a j-10 with my f-18 on fu-she pass and the j-10 made a sharp turn down those hills as i followed i saw a blackhawk so i started shooting at the j-10 before he made a suicide run but as i tryed that  he was to close to the blackhwak and the j-10 exploded and i got the kill but sadly i got the six teamkills so i had -24 and i got kicked out of the game cuz all those guys have their page down button stuck with damn tape so i got kicked bye pretty medal's or ribbon's

I love the ones that stand in front of your jet/tank/APC/whatever because you got in it first. I really don't care about TKs or the punish system, so I just run them over. If I get kicked, oh well, there's over 3000 other servers I can jump on and have a good time on. And it's not like it's hurting my score too terribly, as I usually make up for it later on. So fuck em, get the -4 points...it's only 4 points after all.

Happens all the time.  Happened to a cultmate of mine last night on Mashtuur.  He was gunning on the left side...we got rocked by a tank, and he got credit for four TKs when we all bailed out.  I dunno who I felt worse for, him or the poor tank driver who made an awesome shot and didn't get credit for the kills.

But they fixed the TK system in 1.03...anyone remember them saying that?

The in-game logic, coded into BF2, for TK's does not make sense - often!

I shot a vehicle the moment a opposing player jumped out and it was with an assult rifle. It caused the vehicle
to explode and the guy got away, but some guy on my team with only a few bars of health left dies when the
vehicle explodes as the result of  my shot.

. . . and of course it's pretty automatic - and I don't care:

"You've been punished for a teamkill" - LOL

Also this is super stupid  - I was in a chopper and my gunner shot the other chopper coming right at us - it exploded - we only had 4 bars left - so we exploded as a result of his shot? He was awarded the privelidge of a teamkill?

And if a guy is a really good TK-er he can TK you without loosing points. He drives a jeep really fast in your
direction like he is actually going somewhere - then swerves toward you the moment you're in-range and jumps out. No TK points and no punish option (he didn't kill you - an empty vehicle did!).

and yet . . .

I have been killed by a rubber raft - just getting out of it before it came to a complete stop - it's empty and yet  (-2) shows up - like a suicide - LOL.

TK's, team damage, etc. are often an oddity if they're not the result of intentially directed damage.
