If you want your Lights and Fast Mediums to help kill the squirels from the other team STOP SHOOTING US!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!.. I have a standard police now.. I get shot in the back 2 times by friendlies taking wild *** shots at the Jenner or Cicada I am chasing (to protect them) and I go off to harass a Assault on the other side of the map.. At least that way I know where the fire is going to be coming from

I know many others are getting just as annoyed with half their repair cost being from Friendly fire

Stop running in front of my guns. I will hold fire once or twice, then I will shoot your back if you get in the way.

Note to the Lights who stand by waiting to alpha the enemy mech when it's core is red in the hopes of a kill-steal... stay out of my line of fire please.

Learn2Pilot? You don't get shot if you don't keep running between your team's Gauss snipers and their target. This ain't rocket science, I try to keep my Raven out of the line of fire for a reason.

The trouble is you often need a light to chase away another light. Personally I never blame the other mechs that shoot me (just as I hope they don't harbour any bad feelings about me tickling their legs with my green lazors).

when a light is fighting another light theres no reason for the whole team to turn around and start nuking. If you have a clear shot take it but why chance killing your light.

If your an Assault and 2 of your lights are after their 1 you need to worry about the other guys Assaults.. That os what I am talking about.. When 4 Heavies and Assaults start chasing a Squirrel and ignore the rest of the game..----

Not talking about out on the line.. I'm talking about doing my job sweeping enemy lights and still getting hit by my team

When I'm piloting something small and fast, and I run into the middle of a battle, I expect to take a few friendly rounds to the back. It's the price of being fast enough to throw off enemy shots.

Dear Lights.

I understand you have a God complex going on due to the netcode and hitbox handicaps you have over other players. However, please stand behind Heavies and Assaults when they are attacking slow-moving enemies. I know you feel like your 4 medium lasers do amazing damage, but they really don't. Please stand aside.

Sincerely,
Heavies and Assaults.

If you are doing your job and getting hit by friendlys, then you suck at your job.

Dear both of you groups,
This is why I prefer to drop in an 8man group of players that I know and can trust.
Sincerely,
A Med/Heavy pilot

PS, team shoot me once it is an accident, team shoot me twice it is a mistake, team shoot me 3 times and i kill you (or leave you to deal with what ever mech is the focus of our fire)

It happen I get shot all the time But it happen because I get so stuck on my target that I forget that i mite not be the only one shooting at the target and get in the way, 90% of the time its my fault the other 10% it is a new guy learning how to play the game.

Dear lights,
When an enemy light appears in the open with no cover & our own team be loaded with the lasers....If you run into the fire of more than a dozen lasers in an attempt to shield the enemy, that be your problem.

If the light has the cover then we will hold the fire knowing that most, if not all will do nothing & you be free to chase.
& of course, if your own team has terrible aim, then we understand.
