No damage from allies

Well, I’ve already suggested this in the past, but I do think it is becoming more and more important now: what do you think about completely removing the damage from allies troops? 'Cause I’ve found myself getting burned by “friendly flamethrowers” and molotovs (they were just being toxic).
Also, remove the damage from the barbed wire that’s built by engineers in the same team? It’s super annoying to get your bots killed by this :confused: I mean, it can slow you down and all, but not receive damage from it at all.

Flamethrowers,molotov and phosphorus granade do “neutral damage” so it damage everyone

Bruh, there’s no such a thing as “neutral damage”. Either the add complete realism and everything damages you (tanks running over you, grenades from allies, etc…) or they just remove it. As I said, annoying as hell.

This should be fine. But needs mechanism to punishment for some naughty players

Let me tell you what happens when you remove fire and gas damage from allies.

Which will lead to these things further more abuse using.

You can imagine throwing all the flames without any scruples when attacking and defending.

Then the player will start crying to delete these OOOOOP things.

Deleting everything is the end of this story

No just adapt, HE way concussion from friendly tanks, barbed wire, bombs even, otherwise people would just throw grenades, fires shells in to obj and it would become just a spam fest. (10 times over what it is now), just because you are walking Infront of flames or a bad player is abusing flames, doesn’t mean it needs changing, report said player simple.

highly abusable. you could spam e.g. WP grenades on cap and just cap without enemy being able to get into the cap cause no friendly damage.

if anything i would add friendly fire from artillery and CAS.

They need to give negative XP for killing friendly

if you walk into fire, it’s natural selection at this point.

Double edged sword. On one hand, you don’t get damaged by teammates. On the other hand, you could then immolate the entire objective in fire and phosphorous AND capture while standing in it.

In addition, there are plenty of cases that teammates decide to troll. Standing in front of snipers, MG nests, HMG nests, Field guns, etc. Simply because it messes with a teammate. Friendly fire to kill them, to at least be able to use your equipment is an unfortunate necessity. If they made it to where you could see their name and report them for trolling, and something was actually done about it… That would be different.

sure let me paint an objective full of fire and let my team mates take it

Do this, add a system where you can opt to forgive for friendly damage, if not forgiven, spawning takes longer.

Also the devs should fix the AI to not voluntarily walk into fire.

It’s not always trolling. I’ve built an MG nest, dismounted to prone when grenades or bombs from planes dropped to avoid dying, getting downed, taking damage, etc. then some jackass comes up while i’m literally right next to it and takes it from me. I block their view because otherwise they’d just overheat it and i’d prefer not having to wait like 30+ seconds to use the thing that I built.

It’s one thing when they get on it, which I’m fine with as long as they are getting kills, because I still get 15 points / kill they get (for being the one to build the gun). What I’m talking about is when they stand in front of it, wiggle back and forth, or t-bag, or lay prone directly on top of it. It’s pretty obvious when its done for trolling purposes.

Sure, maybe it’s just me, but I don’t see this often. At least intentionally.
