Repeated Double Team in FFA

Postby _PG_ » 01 Mar 2013, 21:12

Don't know if anything can or should be done about it but at least I can make people aware. Yaru and Artefactz host FFA's on sentry point for 1500+ players then double team the third guy. Its pathetic...

I dont know how to save replays from the vault but if you search in the replay vault for sentry point map you will find about 9 games titled ffa 1500+ where they double team. Heres the one they did to me

I did, but when I realized they were on TS and did a coordinated attack and watched replay and saw nothing between the two of them but engineers made me investigate their other FFA's. I can understand that just so happens in FFA's and if it was a real ffa i wouldnt have cared. but purposely hosting FFA's so you and a mate can 2v1 someone is not cool. especially when my rating was below both of them...make sense?

Makes absolute sense. Col.Shep. said that it wasn't forbidden, but I would want to see if they can be sanctioned. Hosting a game under some pretext such that you can just bash others so unfair that I would like to see it prohibited. Just to be clear, I have absolutely no problem in helping each other out in an FFA if one of the players is just way too strong (Strongest players always get the most attention), but such alliances usually break down early enough for that strong player to be able to recover somewhat. Turning an FFA into a 2v1 beforehand is something completely different though. I would put it in the category of using a smurf to go noob bashing.

agreed. The only thing that needs to be done is informing the community

I think players should be warned and told not to do stuff like this and banned for repeat offences. It's a low populated game trying to attract new players.

It's to be expected with thousands of players but with only 600 people online things like this make the community look bad. Informing people that it's happening but not doing anything about it doesn't look good either, we should encourage good manners and honest play.

Having a plan to steamroll a player before game has even stated is just abusive trolling and ruins playing experience for others, people should play against the AI if they wanna do that
