sorry for tk :/
Since people care about their score so much, just change a TK penalty from -1 to -3 and see how that effects TKing. (Shamelessly stealing this from Aldryk)But how about teamhitting?
But how about teamhitting?
Reflective damage is best option. & it will eliminate tk on purpose.
Just lower the reflective damage from hitting horses.
well so far 77% would like TK penalty to come back. Just refreshing, I would like devs to see and comment on this.
So what is it?
Yes to teamkill penalty.
No, teamkilling is fine as it is.
There is already penalty, you are less likely to win a round
TD/TK is a natural part of any multiplayer game with respect for it self and its players.
What it will add to the gameplay ? There is already penalty, you are less likely to win a round. And remember that there is auto release at the end of round that result in teamkills. Do you want to punish those people too ?One could argue that a penalty to teamkilling reduces teamkilling and therefore makes it more likely for your team to win.
One could argue that a penalty to teamkilling reduces teamkilling and therefore makes it more likely for your team to win.I agree. Besides, it would only take couple of month to discipline players. I am all for the penalty, for example no exp and gold next round when u tk.
I dont think it is fine when 4 of 6 deaths are caused by a team mate.
Well... i currently play cav and i often kill enemies who are fighting a teammate.Sorry, but I'd rather not be help by cav at all. 50% of the time they just bump me leading to my death or outright chop my head off. Stay away from me. :(
I succeed 80% of the time or something like that, but on a whole map i often kill a few teammates even though i try not to.
I would like to not be punished because of this, cause if i was, i wouldnt try to help my teammates and that would lead to my team being 'weaker'
i am sure others feel the same way

Sorry, I'm allowed a little rage. I got killed by friendly cav 8 times yesterday and 4 times by friendly archers.
I lol'd at that one, wtf server are you playing on where more than 50% of the deaths are from tks,
is there a penalty for exaggerations? we should get one.. I'm going to make a thread
BTW when I accidentally tk you, I'll apologize when I'm dead or the round is over, if you don't read it I don't care
But I sure do hate skillless horsemen who do nothing but bump others while not caring at all that they will take damage and die.It's for those horsemen I have my Heavy Throwing Axes. I don't care if they are enemy or friendly.
One could argue that a penalty to teamkilling reduces teamkilling and therefore makes it more likely for your team to win.Kind of silly logic. Penalty to teamkilling do not do that, it just penalize player who do it. I played just a few hours after patch, and amount of teamkilling is more than reasonable.
Well... i currently play cav and i often kill enemies who are fighting a teammate.The problem is that in most of these cases, the infantry do not wish any help. I don't know how many times we were 3 vs. 1 and a "helping" friendly cav comes and know 1-2 of us down getting someone killed. Or an archer/xbow who think he is Wilhelm Tel and tries, from a mile away, to shoot between the 3 friendlies to "help" them. These bumps that get you killed are not even registered as TK. In the case of archers I often do not even know who shot me, except that the arrow is stuck in the back of my neck in the direction of the "friendlies".

that is impossible to NOT occasionally hit your teammates
I dissprove what you have said everytime I hit block when I see that my swing is going to TH. U can also change direction of ur swing and it works in most cases. If poeple would try to not hit teammates as hard as they try to kill an enemy I bet that there would be 80% les THs.

It is the responsibility of the cavs to stay away from friendlies footmen/archers - do not run between us, if I hear hoofs, I hit first and look for the icon later. It is the responsibility of the archers not to shoot into friendly infantry - if they want to "support" and shoot into melee, they need to get close, wait for the right moment and be careful about it. If the infantry is aware of the archer position he will even create opportunities for him. Melee TK is a bit different because the HAVE TO be close to each other, but still it is their fault if the TK.
While your points are all valid, no one ever talks about the opposite side of the issue: Lone infantry who run off or break ranks because they want to rambo or mini-duel every enemy like it's their goddamn birthright, even if they know full well that there's 3-4 friendly archers waiting for a shot.
He-man tactics, excessive circle strafing when you know there's archers wanting to fire... these things are never discussed. It's always the archers' fault. I call BS on that.
