Some Annoying teams to play with

Dunno why some teammates are like this:

  1. Never put down any markers for enemy position or tanks (Need Tutorial?)
  2. Those that highjack your tank while you are repairing it. (Trolls?)
  3. Those that build barb wires around a Spawn location or on a friendly Rally point. (Trolls again?)
  4. People who ask to build rallys but they themselves dont build any.
  5. You suppose to defend the point but all run away from the point to behind it.
  6. Everyone queuing for one single Rally point leaving the map completely empty of allies.
  7. Those that purposefully block your Tank guns but standing right infront of it.

These are just at the top of my head, wanna enjoy the game and play?, sure no problem, but atleast help out with marks or respond a bit if needed.

you have option to block this now

there are times when i grind new squads and dont have engineer in them. or i am in vehicle. still spam them

I agree that they are quite annoying.

I don’t know if its that they don’t know how, or if its that they are actually incapable. I know a lot of players have pointed out that on Playstation, they are unable to ping. In addition, controllers are fairly limited. I play on Xbox, and I’ve come across a few players that have switched out their ping button for other functions they deem more important for their OWN success, not accounting for teamwork.

It could be trolls, but I’ve also come across a number of players that say they do it so they can get a bunch of kills without having to upgrade their own tanks as it can be resource intensive. (Not a good reason in my opinion.) Some even sometimes just want to use the machine gun, but dont have the option to tell the rest of their squad to stay out.

Generally these guys are either just trolling, trying to reduce friendlies being able to get kills so they can increase their own. On occasion, its that they have a friend on the enemy team that they are trying to help by sabotaging their own.

Laziness and meta-stacking. A lot of people don’t think it should be their job to have an engineer, instead they are built 100% for attacking, no engineers in their group.

Usually its the case of they want to try to keep their squad alive, and instead of having fortifications that can withstand a hit and protect them, they don’t want to mess with engineers. So running away is their next best option.

Again, laziness generally. Instead of helping put up more than one rally point, they’d rather just wait there turn at the one there is. In addition, AI squads can spawn on these, in an attempt to reinforce their team quicker. Unfortunately, when there is only one rally point, everyone gets jammed up.

This game has a LOT do with getting good firing angles. Unfortunately, a lot of people will try to prioritize themselves over the power of a tank. In addition, if they feel like a tank player on their team is getting too many kills, they do this to troll that person.

I think if they made fortifications stronger, teammates would see the necessity for genuine teamwork and spend less time trolling their own team.

I don’t think they are trolls
they are just dumb as F

They think they will protect the spawn if they put barbed wire all around it without realising they are harming their teammates more than enemies

this is true, as a new player I’ve done that until I realized how stupid it actually is.

don’t worry
me too when I was new :wink:

Today I faced new kind of animals: friendly rally destroyers. They will spawn on your rally, destroy it and build theirs on top.
Btw, why teammates are even allowed to do so?
You can’t block anyone with rally.

I would give them to you but you have 0 kills with the plane and it is the last point, we need infantry, no. a plane

The annoying one rally point policy where the entire team depends on just one rally point instead of building more on other areas along with those who only attack in one direction and ones holding their spawn not making up their mind what squad to use with a rally point selected instead of allowing someone else to spawn.

Another annoying thing is as a defender where some teams love to intentionally give away the cap when I wanted to end the match already like I know the longer the matches the bigger xp reward but I don’t like intentional stalling especially when grinding or doing bp missions where the time spent on an extended match could’ve been used for another one.

One of the worst is actually the team being so slow to react on the next objective or any threats like not spotting enemy tanks or AT guns and not shooting enemy infantry near my tank.

Molotovs, flamers and WP spammers especially when attacking like come on I couldn’t move around the objective because some dumb teammate thinks a molotov on the way is a good idea when I want to sweep the entire cap point.

“Build a Goddamn rally point” should be added to quick chat

Yup, I’ve noticed this a lot lately as well. They really need to start punishing players for doing this kind of thing.

I think in this case the thing to blame is the broken xp bonus system. The one where the next game played is +50-300% more xp. This makes it more valuable to draw games out rather than just doing as well as you can and winning the game. If it was changed to where you could choose to apply it after the game, you would see this issue far less.

  1. Fighter pilots who only strafe enemy infantry while his team’s attacker plane is under attack from enemy planes.
  2. Enemy tank is taking out my team and nobody in my team cares enough to attack the tank.
  3. Teammate shouting ‘defend that point’ while we are attacking.

I make it a point to stop trolls once I spot them. I will chase them around the entire game with my engineers and deconstruct everything they place. Then once I figure out their name, i call them out in chat. They usually leave the game in my experience

yes.

but

why should they?. honestly. why shouldnt they be alowed to just kill? sit on a tank? flame a bunker down, place mines and such.
why should they be forced to play how we see its better on our eyes, and disregard their personal fun?
maybe no eng on squad and rather went for another type of soldiers? coz they can.
maybe dont know how to do?
maybe they dont know whats even a “rally”

who knows. but.
winning isnt the only way of having fun on a casual game…

I have a few that ruin the game or make it more challenging depending on your perspective :sunglasses:

  1. Players that ride my 1 rally like a wild horse and refuse to add a second one.

  2. Players that actually do build a rally but put them in the second floor of a building making the entire team AI get stuck. There are other variations of this but the point is getting AI stuck for some heinous reason.

  3. When the majority of my team decides to hang back and snipe. This one I found ways to mitigate by harassing the the enemy team back line, lay down smoke, build rallies 5’ from the point but if there are too many skittish players, you cannot carry them all.

  4. Players that don’t mark tanks. I’ll be lenient about marking infantry but not marking a tank or active MG nest is a travesty for anyone who has played 50 or more battles

  5. Players that joy ride planes. I’m thrilled someone likes flying planes but if you ignore good marks painting a bullseye where to bomb/rocket then I will prefer an AI squad to distract the enemy or help cap

Flammers can be annoying but thats more the unit than the players.

This is true which is why i always have other squads with Engineers available because out of 3 squads i always need to have 2 with engineers, those ammo crates and rally points can make a difference in some matches.

Console players i can understand but usually 60-80% of the team are PC players not counting the bots.

Ah yes this is another one, they destroy your rally to put theirs down so that they can get the spawn points instead.

heres another one, i have seen people run pass said tank slaughtering the team.

This is sometimes because new players start with a sniper squad and when all of them use it the same time, well such is the result. Then there are those who enjoy sniping (nothing wrong with that) but sniping alone wont get you anywhere.

I think this is more problem with the map designs and the AI being dumb.

Most of those are so common i don’t even expect anything different anymore.
I will spam “Need rally point” most matches, sometime i don’t build them myself if we are winning anyway, or i’m just trying to see if bots will react and build them faster than players.

Now what is annoying:
-dude sitting in plane all game / fine, have fun it’s just game
-0 engineer score / fine, i was building all game anyway, second would be nice for no queues but maybe he has no engineers yet

-starts complainging on last point that team is shit
Nothing like being garbage and complaining that You ain’t getting carried hard enaugh, They can fuck right off and i would shoot them out of that shitty plane myself if i could.

Also now i can’t even kill retards attic rallies with flamethrowers that get all of Your team bots stuck and are instant game loss. Fine i’m just gonna desert more
