Reads post...reads again...******* tank driver but you deserved the kick by returning fire. Considering you emptied 2 mags into him you had intention to actually deal damage to the person even though it was at most cosmetic damage. Just try again tomorrow.

i deserve a ban for doing approximately 0 damage to a tank's shields, using my assault rifle?
give me a break, get your head out of your ass, and think about that logically for a second.
logic is a complex concept for blueberries, i know. but, COME ON.
Actually you still did damage to the tanks shields. I have that happen alot and watch to see if it actually does anything. Its very little but you still do a bit. Even at one point per hit, and ar has what...32 rounds minimum per mag or something like that? Also mate, I roll with my corp, to me your a blueberry. Its the same for everyone else as well. Im a blueberry, your a blueberry. Only thing different is yours seems to disappear off my radar when you shoot at me. I shrug and keep rolling.
According to your own words though, yes you did deserve to be banned from the match. You said right there you would have killed him had he been out of his vehicle. I mean...I understand the frustration. I actually stop and let infantry and lav's pass me before rolling on. Its just a good thing to do with friendly fire on. Why should you die because I wasnt watching where I was rolling. Just not gonna happen with me.

Is this how ancient exiles is in general or is it just a pissy member? Honestly I'm at least being civil and veiling my insults somewhat.

I have that happen alot and watch to see if it actually does anything. what part of "approximately zero damage" did you not understand? firing at shields with an AR does some damage, but the recharge rate makes it almost completely negligible.
I understand what you say perfectly actually. Heres what I'm getting at.
It doesnt matter if its negligible damage or not, 1+1 is 2 and you do that for 2 full mags of ammunition that can actually add up. A lav impacting a player if your mobile can do anywhere in the range of 0 to 10000 damage according to a few kill feeds that have happened to me. Then it keeps track of that through the game. Then you add a couple dozen ar rounds at 10% efficiency to heavy shielding, a basic ar does 34 i think it is per bullet. This means 3.4 per bullet to the shields. No point adding in a hardener for friendly small arms fire so no further modification. We will say it has 54 minimum ammo per mag and 60 max if you were using one of the other ars. Or the exile.
So you did minimum of 367.2 damage or at maximum 408 from your ar fire to the tank. Doesnt look like a small amount to me. Now add in that your car exploded when it blew up and did in fact do damage to the tank as well. Theres the rest of the damage.

CCP time and again doesnt consult players about things that they introduce and it turns into a joke. All these rules do are coddle stupid blueberries and hinder players that know what they are doing. I almost got banned from FW today because someone was hacking a letter and I blew the RE on it only to find that there was a blue dot standing there.
As someone said, what are you supposed to do with OBs? You cant drop it because some bluetard is wandering around? Heck, in PC it happens because clearing the area is more important than the one or two mercs that are there.
Welcome to Fisher Price's 'My First Faction War'. Completely child safe and even comes with hits own helmet and drool bib.
Completely agree with you that the system is currently needing a few tweaks, I was simply doing the math to show how he got banned from it. Its one thing to detonate an re and kill a teammate unknowingly its a bit more to knowing hose down a vehicle with automatic fire. Granted it didnt do anything to the vehicle, it seems like it did around 4k damage to it and got him kicked due to it counting raw damage.
However thank you for the more calm response than I have been getting. Aggression is met with aggression and conversation is met with conversation and a nice hot mug of cider...

The system is infuriating right now and you can understand why my friend is a little on edge right now. Half the people I know were banned today and not one of them (that I know of) intentionally did something to deserve it. Its somewhat obvious that CCP doesnt have a 'what if' session with these updates.
My suggestion for avoiding said things is practice a combat doctrine on the battlefield. If you command a vehicle of any kind and have players in front of you. Drive slow or let them get out of the way. And the bigger vehicle has right of way especially if their not paying attention. Orbitals are for clearing points with minimal blues around or greens are told to evacuate the area before moving back in to reclaim. Explosives arent used in the proximity of other players. This is how my group has played in various tactical shooters such as rainbow six and ghost recon where friendly fire is always on. Its somewhat easy to avoid if you maintain situational awareness but if you dont, ittl bite you.

CCP was so worried about griefing that they pulled out their typical tactic of going full tilt in the opposite direction.
This is very true, however I will say this. Even in the old games like ghost recon advanced warfighter you had stupid people. It was still down to the player to watch their lanes of fire. Until they smooth things out, I can only suggest to watch your lanes of fire and keep an eye on your tacmap. Thats really the only thing that you can do honestly...
