I have noticed something that seems to occur pretty often. I'm afraid of my own team more than my enemy and by this I mean friendly fire, mostly from predator tanks firing into a cluster of bloody friendly troops just for that one..little dude and killing most of everyone in the process, right down to the rhino running everyone he can see over to get to his destination at warp speed. It is a little annoying! Do any penalties exist for this sort of stuff? Or just bite the pillow and take it?
No penalties that I know of. But if the TK stays I can see plenty funny Trolling videos for this game.
THe TK penalties aren't in yet (other than vote ban). Yes, your teammates are often worse then the other team. Especially the new guy with a plasma cannon.
Especially ANYONE with the plasma cannon... I still remember the funniest one from that. Playing as Shieldbro, clearing out the control room for Charile on Blackbolt. I turn around the corner and kill the last enemy I can see, so I start to execute. Right as I start, I hear over the VOIP. "NO, DON'T! I FIRED AT HIM!" right as I heard "fired", booooooooom. Plasma cannon. There should be penalties, but only after someone does it on a basis more than twice, less than ten.
I must admit that I have once blasted away into A on Olipsis Refinery (up the stairs were those who follow the false Emperor hide), but allies rarely wish to cap when I do that kind of suppressive fire. Recently I tried parking the Predator next to the "middle entrance" and use the Heavy Bolter, which turned out to be a bit more effective.
As a melee player I can say its really annoying - I mean team killing. How many times I have been shot into back with bolter ? Im not even talking about plasma cannon. Well, but its a part of the game Its realistic. Sometimes I kill friendly with grenade, sometimes with vehicle tracks..U cant avoid that completely. But, some penalties and warnings will be implemented soon
tank phisic model is terrible is really hard to stop and move it (some time the tank go in orbit other time the tank grt stuck in a small rock). tank weapons instead well look at this video: consider is not AOE autocannon is single target, but lag and hit detection is terrible, probally the gunner don't aim at you but the game decide that you get headshotted.

Was deliberately using the left bracket of the reticle as a crosshair to test the accuracy and hit detection. It really is EZ mode and I don't get it. If it was hitting just as hard with an actual Heavy Bolter like COF it would still be amazing.
