0 Damage Reporting: Good thing or Not?

[Leesin]

I don't care if I know someone, if you wanna say hello put your weapon up or type it in the chat like a normal person. There's only so much kicking, nudging, punching etc that I will put up with until I start spamming ctrl + m because I want to play the game not be involved in some round start wank fest that all the neckbeards think is cool.

I don't ever report anything accidental unless it's someone who has "accidentally" wounded me and other team mates multiple times, because they need to learn to not be so careless.

Sure, this system has negatives, sometimes I'm trying to get out of spawn without bumping anyone on my horse and someone runs into my path or spawns in my bump radius and it only knocks them a little ( like not to the ground, just that little stun ) and they can report, but it doesn't happen often enough to bother me. I feel the positives for me personally outweigh the negatives though, now I can report all the nerds who think touching up their team mates at the start of the round is some cool c-rpg ritual.

Don't like it? stop punching, kicking and nudging team mates then.

What ? On which server were you playing ?
That's exactly why it's been implemented in the first place. You can report people kicking/nudging/interrupting you when reloading, aiming, whatever. The fact that you can't would mean you were in an "old" server.

Nope. Nudge reports are on, but I've seen where it hasn't been reportable. I suspect it is a specific nudge, but haven't had time to look into it.

Even 0 damage can get you killed. Just stuns you for an enemy

Urist: - changed teamhit reporting so that only 0 damage kicks, punches and nudges are reportable but no weapon bounces

I think that helped it abit?

[Tojo]

they need to fix being nudged while aiming a xbow. If your teammate nudges you while you are aiming it knocks you down and you can not report thyem at all. I had someone doing that to me and its really a huge pain in the ass.

[Tears of Destiny]

Good, as it allows reports on the people who "V" key everyone...


Though to be perfectly honest I press M maybe once every week or three.

na-1
na-3
CANT report while aiming
CANT report while reloading(last time i tested was last week-maybe a bit before that but definitely after it was implemented)

Personally I think it's great, I make a hobby of reporting all the love-taps I get from friends and clanmates.

Bad poll is bad. There is a wide variety to the different types of 0 damage hits and they are not all created equal. You may as well make a poll asking if breathing is bad without making a distinction between breathing air, water, vacuum, weed smoke, crack pipe smoke, forest fire smoke, etc, etc.

Finally there is some guy on this forums able to make a proper poll with a clear question and simple answers without any opinions or bullshit included and you are nit-picking because he didn't explain the obvious. Best thing is your example is perfectly showing that it doesn't need further explanation. When you talk about breathing without adding more information everybody just assumes you mean air because it is the most logical thing. When he is talking about changes to 0-damage reports everybody just assumes he refers to the most recent changes.

Also the therm breathing refers to the process of respiration, which you can't without "air".

I shouldn't post with hangover, but still.

It's true. Every time I slap him on the ass he reports me.

Also, when I hit him ingame he ctrl+m's me.

You are wrong. There is a difference between intentional actions like nudges, kicks, and punches, and the unintentional glances and overheads in a scrum that will whiff on a teammate for 0 damage, and all of them are recent changes.

[Kafein]

Bad? I'm asking about 0 Damage reporting. All of it. Before this, you couldn't report nudges, punches, light horsebumps, etc. Now you can.

And they ARE all equal. not a one does any damage.

No they aren't. 0 damage punches don't stagger. Kicks and nugdes do.

[CrazyCracka420]

There should be a distinction between nudging/kicking and 0 damage swings. 

[Rextard]

Two melee assholes did this to me in NA DTV just a little while ago. I was trying to setup to shoot at the waves as they appeared. Time and again, for whatever douchebag reason they had, they'd surround me and wait for me to keep getting knocked down from touching them or nudging me, and let me die to the mobs, then fight. So, anyone can grief any allied ranged character they want into leaving, essentially, any server they want.

Reporting one person for that could take as much as five 3 wave rounds. Reporting more is stupid hard, because if they time two knockdowns close enough, and you're trying to play, not focus on reporting griefers, they can ensure you're screwed and only get one report between them. The report only works on the last person to have done anything.

Games should be fun, not give people license to completely waste others' time.

I think it's a good option to have. Significantly cuts down on RAAAAAWTF cavalry knocking over half the team's infantry to get to their ordained waiting positions. I feared it'd ruin the friendly punching between people, but I still get smacked in the face with a shield every once in a while.

The text could do with a bit of changing though - iirc it states that you've been damaged when "hit" would be more accurate.
