I was in a Drop today and had the "Memory Leak" bug, so I announced to everyone in the game:

"Have memory Bug, Powered down off cap, Appreciate not being shot at."

So what do the Pugs do... start shooting at me the moment they get on cap.

Why.

I mean whats the point, I wasn't holding them up. Its not MY fault that the Game has an issue and I could not defend myself.

I don't Shoot DC'd Mechs as I have no idea why they have disconnected, it may be a farming tactic it may just be Joe Normal whose client has crashed to desktop.

Learn some respect peeps, maybe we can all have fun playing this game.

no offense but seriously you're making a post about how you asked someone not to shoot you (IN AN FPS GAME) and then they shot you?

I read it and don't get why you made a post about it....

You ran into some people that don't care about you or your problems on the internet...not exactly news worthy.

[Captain Midnight]

The "why" is because you are something in an FPS game that can be shot? There are no deep answers, people play this game to shoot people and guess what you got shot.

[Cearrdorn]

They shot you for salvage. I've seen it before, not sure entirely of the logic, if undamaged mechs generate no salvage or whatnot. Typically we pull the wings off of any mech left during the capture phase, without coring them when the lone wolves get together.

[Captain Midnight]

You get salvage for everything you kill, the value of the salvage is a derivative of the value of the UNDESTROYED stuff on the mech. A completely dead mech with no components remaining when he dies gives **** for salvage, a headshot or a leg kill gives TONS of salvage.

[zhajin]

why? cbills and xp...

[wanderer]

The funny is a guy named "Mr Target" is complaining about being targeted.

Seriously, don't expect anything from a PUG except "Hey, you're on the field and I see you! BANG.".

If you're unable to play, aim for a map edge and hide before powering down, or go past said map edge and kill your own 'Mech.

Ok wow...

My anger can not contain.

I'm discussing something in "General Discussion" about a bad experience that was caused by a bug in the game, we all suffer from it and we do what we can. My attempt to be reasonable in this particular situation resulted in an unnecessary death.

When pre-mades play pre-mades and one has an issue regarding a player dropping from a match due to any of the numerous bug that are in this game we respect the other team by dropping a same weighted mech from our team.

when "pugging it" you guys dont give a damn unless you get a kill. well that's just sad, games about teamwork.

yes but the damage also adds up in cbills... though i can not say i know the actual numbers on savage vs damage...

[Tasorin]

Because otherwise they would be shooting each other.

[Roughneck45]

You just need to hide somewhere then powerdown. Doing it next to the cap is begging to be shot. Hell, some players just start shooting their teammates when they are standing on cap.

In Future I will, I have lost interest in pugs, they bend the system for them, roll on the 8 man pre-made button so I don't have to deal with these ******* any more.

I don't care about the getting shot while playing, its part of the fricking game, but I wasn't able to play due to an issue with the game. I was just an easy kill cos actual combat is too hard for these people.

We live in a world where cheating, stealing, lying and all other sort of rotten crap is
what gets rewarded and you are hoping for "honor".

Most modern kids are scheming, lying, hateful, little devils, thanks to crappy parenting
and a permissive western culture.

Might want to tighten that seat belt for the future, it is only going to get worse.

Welcome to the internet, you must be new here.

Actually, welcome to real life for the most part...

[Fomorian]

And well your name in game is MrTarget...just saying.

[Orion ji]

@OP take this as a valuable life lesson.... about trust.

[FoofighterX]

I would shoot you and not think twice.

[MayGay]

I've had ppl chase me down and kill me instead of capping (half way across the map) because they could, dosn't bother me much no cap for them
