Swaping teams to avoid a death

[o_zaskar]

Is the ability to swap teams and swap back to avoid a death going to be in FF?

Always was the lamest thing when people got infected or thought they were cornered to see them swap then right away swap back and compleatly avoid getting a death.

lol I guess that sucks WHEN and IF you keep track of the score.

which is like.. close to never in TF.

[o_zaskar]

Close to every time on any Pub ever anywhere :P

Well i usually suck to much to worry about score, im too busy havin fun to worry about not dying :P

But it annoys me to no end to see some score whoring sniper consistantly avoid a infect death or death from a weapon cause he ducked around a corner while i chased him and he swaps and swaps back.

Its just so lame :/ make it possible for a autobalance mod to not give a death, by manual;ly swapping while alive is lame.


Maby add the option on the team and class switch screen to swap now or swap after death also. instead of it just beying a variable in the settings.

Nah it's pretty damn common.

Edit: Yeah, what Zaskar said.

[o_zaskar]

So does anyone know if it is gonna cause a death or be allowed when infected, etc?

[Circuitous]

Only the devs.

I personally think that it should do the same thing as if you changed class

counts as a suicide, and you can't respawn for 5 seconds

There are legitimate reasons for swapping teams though, why punish that?

[mervaka]

what if limits were placed where you could only swap teams once every death, or once every 5 mins or so

[o_nezumi]

or you could swap teams once every 5 minutes without getting penalized, but more than that causes a suicide and spawn delay.

Just make it so you can only swap teams on death.

Maybe having a death no matter what will be better... you let you team down to the other team... wich your current teammates will found sad and give more advantage to the other team... of course if you join back you team right away then its another story... you try to avoid getting a death then in that case i will put 2 death... one for joining the other team and another one to join back your original team.

You know what really fucking pissed me off? When you accidentally suicided, it took off a kill and added a death. Why the hell did it take off a kill? Fuck that.

You SUICIDE yourself!... the game doesn't care if its an accident or not... your dead by your fault

But it takes off a kill. That always drove me nuts in every game.

And it will always do... stop suicide yourself and it wont take you of a kill... logic is:

True you make a kill but it was yourself so you loose a kill = -1 in kills

You die = + 1 in deaths

[o_frenchtoast]

No, that's retarded logic. It should just add a death.

If I kill you 40 times, then you kill me, how have I only killed 39 times? It's dumb.
