I really hate when people throw the kill steal term around..........

95% of the time I agree with you. However I have seen players wait and hold their shots and fire at said enemy only when the interenals turn orange or red.

The "I didn't mean to click" alpha to the back at the start of a match.

I've been running a lot of commandos lately and take A LOT of FF... doesnt bug me, my last battle consisted of 28 dmg was all... LoLz... I got 5 kill assists and 25 spotting assists... Being an insect tends to get you squished, hence one of my commandos name being splat...

For clarification; I do not wantonly run about trying to die, I am trying to harass, deal some dmg, and let my big bros squish them while they try to uncircle my circle... I get the crap beat out of me, but I also help enable the wins...

last night I was PUGing b4 my buddy came online and on Alpine was double legged by what I hope was an accident... my death's knell wasn't in the fight for 10 seconds... I DC'd so I wouldn't become an #@&hole...

To all of those I have shot on my own team, I do not mean to, I may have accidentally clicked or shot as you were running into my FoF... I always try to pull away if I see friendly, it doesn't always work...

To be fair, the locations of the toggle-chain-fire and alpha-strike default keys aren't exactly OSHA compliant. There's a reason why the gas cap isn't next to the ashtray in cars.

Convergence puts on round under the enemy's armpit.
Last night, dual AC20 killed the enemy and a friend behind it. Oops.

lrm fired before target dies and ally walks onto corps (got a team kill with this one...sorry)

Actually I have done this on purpose. Ie enemy LRM boats target me while I am working over there atles. Run behind atles and hide behind them until the missiles meant for me tear apart the enemy mech. Seen a few FF incidents from this planed event. ITs great when the atles or whatever larger mech then me starts to complain about the FF when it was not the LRM boats fault

For me most annoying *friendly fire* is - when you're trying to move away for cover somebody from your team decides to stand right behind you...

11. Type some questions/suggestions in team chat as the match begins and suddenly your mech engages override, toggles night vision, jumps into the air and pops an alpha in the back of the guy in front of you. 12. "I can't target any of the mechs down there, pretty sure that one's not ours..."

Ugh, #11 ****** me off to no end. Blew my Coolant Pods the other night because of that bug.

13. Longshanks LRM boats firing 45 missiles into a close quarters brawl, or a light circle of death.

Been there, done that. My SplatCommando memorably intercepted an enemy Gauss round meant for a teammate while circle-strafing the firer -- momentum carried me straight into the line as the Gauss discharged. The only way for that to be more embarrassing is for me to intercept a friendly inbound round...
