What's going on?  Pass this on to FourZeroTwo....

Who on Earth thinks that giving someone credit for destroying friendly equipment is a good idea?  How many times must I, we post to get this fixed.?Everytime I or anyone on my team would put down a friendly equipment down, this guy would destroy it and laugh.  Now we have no way to retalliate because of Ricochet.  

 

Speaking of Ricochet, you also ruined Hardcore with the friendly fire on airstrikes.  They are totally useless without getting penalized for using them.  You drop a precision and warn your team.  They run into the bombing because they will not die.  You die once, because a guy is in there.  Because he does not die and is still in the middle of the bombing, you respawn and die again.  Then he is still there yet, because he didn't die from the bombing, so you die a third time. 

 

I totally get it, you hate Hardcore and the players that play it.  This has got to stop.  Give us a fix for these issues.  Stop friendly destruction of equipment.  Repair the Ricochet.   Want an idea of how?  If you team kill, that person must respawn.  They do not get a count for death.  They do not lose their killstreak.  The teamkiller gets a point loss or a death.  In airstrikes you only die once, not 3 "F"ing times.  It is not that hard to figure this out.

 

Do you not play your own game and see that these things are so jacked up about it?

      My only answer at the moment (and I KNOW you will hate it, so I say it in the nicest way possible) is to play core. Many of the reasons you stated are the biggest reasons I don't play hardcore modes. I have an itchy trigger finger (so I would richochet kill myself alot Lol) and I sometimes knife things before I see the emblem on top of the equipment. I have ventured in to HC here and there so I can only sympathize.

        This is the only solution I see in the short term as well, until some of the aspects get addressed. I have not been a hardcore player since Call of Duty 4 when I played HC Headquarters often.

         

        I do sympathize though, I am mainly a core Search and Destroy player. If there was some issue like the ones you have mentioned that I consider game mode breaking, I would be very unhappy with the state of the game. I hope they do listen to your concerns and find some way to address the issue.

          I can see where your coming from. Even in core players have no regard for one another. Fortunatly for you AND them they do not die when they step in front of you. They lay in doorways, block you in rooms, etc...That will probably never change, so I learn to deal with it. Most of the time I don't think they realize they are doing it, if they know they are doing it then that's when I get upset. I try hard not to have an itchy trigger finger, (even in core) but if I don't see a name then they get shot at. Lol. There are also times when I get more assists then I can shake a stick at. That makes me rage a bit, but it evens out at the end of the day because I am sure I have stolen a few kills as well.

    Dont use precision airstrikes, and definitely do not, ever, play core.

    They don't care about your problems. They have your money. End of story.

    The best solution, IMHO, is to remove Ricochet from all of the HC modes except S&D.  Place the "three team kill kick" rule into all of the other HC modes.

     

    IW has ruined hardcore with this ricochet nonsense.

      The only problem with that is they will just move on to the next game and be a troll there, block them from HC for 1 hour if they get kicked out of a match for TK.

    Am I the only one who likes Richochet, it's the only reason i started playing HC to be honest, sure you get morons who run in front of you on purpose, but that's a small percentage to people who TK. Just don't use stealth bombers or air strikes in HC, it's quite simple really.

    I think players that team kill, get in the way, destroy equipment are total jerks and should be banned from the game hardcore.

     

    Sadly the only thing they can do right now to me is to make it ricochet.

     

    You do have the tools to mark there rep as avoid for team killing. Its not much but it helps a little and I can tell you that MS and Activision would tell you the same thing. to use the tools that MS gives you.

     

    Otherwise you can look at their gamertag and since they are acting like children I am sure you will also find they modded their Avatar or something so you can get the last word in.

     

    when you are joined in with a entire world of people in the same room mixing it up you are going to get jerks regardless of how many times you reroll the dice.

     

    In my opinion you cant expect the devs to refereee every ahole you come in contact with so take a few steps of your own.
