I don't want to make an a case of state for a public match but, is it funny?
I know CCP somewhat appreciate griefing and awoxing, but it happens in controlled enviroments like PC, where team leader can punish such behaviors or if it happens, it's the fault of the corp directors to invite people who are not trust worthy.
CCP, griefing it's not emergent gameplay, you should punish such behaviors, you should set limits, because certain actions can be funny for someone but are totally anti fun for another.
I like good and even fights, but that is a matchmaking issue, what i don't like are anti fun behaviors, which you usually put under the label of game mechanics.

Just curious was the guy in a minmitar frontline suit? If so, I saw that guy in a match, despite his best efforts we still stomped the other team though. If not, then there's more than one guy running around doing this. I must admit months ago I did the same however I was trying to see if I could turn frontline suits into human torpedos. I only did it like 5 times in one match before I figured out it doesn't work. Blew up right in another frontline suits face and he only took like 40 damage. It doesn't work though, if the grenade is in your hand then you pretty much absorb the whole thing. I also wanted to do it so I could organize a dropship bombing squad but sadly once your body hits free fall you can't arm grenades. You can still cook and throw at the last moment but that doesn't work so well these days with how ****** damage is on locus grenades, better off just mass driver spamming.
On topic though, the game should just automatically boot a player if they suicide too many times in a certain time frame. Much how the game boots you if you don't spawn in or if you stand still for too long. But the game should also stop letting players get revived without consent which was on Rattatai's charlie list but he scratched it off. I'm hoping that's because it had to get pushed to Delta and not because he gave up on it. |
