Reflective Damage

Lets do a Poll. It's been ages since we done one, and they are always good fun.

OK... what sort of friendly fire on the server should we have? Vote above and post your reasoning here (if you can be arsed!)

I reckon reflective damage should be turned on, on the server. My reason for this, is that it can only make you a better player and there is no danger of teamkilling fools when {BA} members aint around!

[Darkie]

Can you do a combination of reflective and normal FF?

That would be interesting but you will still get the t'king tarts.

Reflective damage gets my vote. If you've got an itchy-trigger finger and shoot your team-mate, you lose health or die yourself.
Seems fair to me...Unless CoD comes up with a way to assign a rank to yourself and all the *Ruperts should be shot in the back. |clown2|

*Ruperts...Officers not NCO's.

Most commonly heard phrases when reflective damage is on...

"Stop running into my f*****g nades!!!!!"

I guess you could have a mixture. I mean, we switch it on and off all the time to be honest. I reckon reflective will sort out the men from the boys tho.

Lets face it... even if people complain about running into other folks nades - it'll be good practise for accuracy. Most clans practise with it off and therefore wouldn't be used to it when playing a match.

Good point, didn't think of that but then again you should recognise the sound of a grenade falling and hide.

CB standard gameplay is to have on FF on....

Even if we say ff is off in the rules bit its not counted as a rule if the opposition decide they want ff on.

So it would be good too practice with FF on probably all the time - so stick it on (reflective) and lets see what happens

[Jodo]

I've voted for normal FF on, I thought that was the default in CB's rules and not reflective. The problem with Reflective is people who frag steal on purpose will run in front of you in firefights, get you killed cos you're already committed to the kill and then finish your kill off. You're dead, did all the wet-work and they get off with using a server-setting in improper use.

Normal FF on is the standard in CB.. .. think you misunderstood me tweeecle.

yeah refelctive aint perfick. but worth a shot to see how it goes

[Raspy]

Personally I'm not keen on any sort of FF on public servers. As someone else said, you get the noob who runs in front of you while you're shooting at someone - then you die.

It's a shame reflective FF can't distinguish between that and a genuine TK.

[Herrline]

jodo makes a good point and think on this the server would suffer as most players dont like a ff, or reflective play and would leave the server almost empty, but if you like give it a trial and see what happens, the other good point is ff should make you a better player as you have to study more and not just let fly but it is inevitable that some team member is gonna jump out and get killed by you as you are commited and dont see you and gets cut down and in doing so you have lost ammo and has to try and reload before the other opponent kills you ....so food for thought on both scores |groupchat

put it on

Perhaps we can trial it over the weekend?
