So with that logic people could actually team kill flag carriers if they think they can hold the flag better than the original carrier. What justifies team killing in circumstances like this? Also, how do you define what kind of team killing is allowed and what is not when thinking about situations overall, not just the one I described in my previous post?
If flag carrier refuses to pass the flag regardless of how many times you spam Pass the flag & carrier is Outrider with 15% Health left, I think that warrants TK in favor of getting the flag to someone who can hold and handle the flag adequately. If somebody would tell me to give the flag and I don't see him in couple seconds I think it's alright if I get TK'ed long as my team holds the flag.
How do I define what kind of TK is allowed and what isn't? Other kind of TK'ing won't do good to your team (I admit, I do occasionally shoot O Sniping teammates off the towers to discourage such behaviour), other situation where I'd justify TK'ing is if you want to force chasers to respawn. Ever found yourself in a situation where 4 teammates are going for midfield flag return and leave base empty for consecutive llama grabs? I have. Many times. And it tends to happen more than once during one match.

The direct insta hit is the only thing that I would consider to be "looked into" on mortar. Other than that, I'd suggest on looking at what are you doing wrong now that the game has new elements.
Yes even on the TK aspect. Granted new players will TK for a few times. This happens on whatever the weapon, only that mortar is a bit more prone to it. Just like GL was before mortar. Yet you people were so used to it happening that you didn't really mind. Mortar is a powerful weapon indeed. Eventually people will notice how it is to be used and how to act when people are indeed using it.

Mortar is a simple weapon, please attempt to adapt.

I said Soon? :F
"Looked into" more or less means that if it's deemed too op it's removed. Eventually. When I get to slap DG. Who is hiding is France. :p

Lighter class choosers, listen well. There's nothing wrong with a slower class, if it has firepower. The only reason you feel angry, is because now the class, which you were able to toy with before, has a better chance at kicking your butt.

I don't understand anything you say -.-

Tribes had it all figured out....Heavy/Juggernaut carried like 5 weapons....one shot of mortar ..your dead.... only reason I'm complaining i get team killed way too often. Maybe make the mortar like a cluster and able to hold it to charge....and release thus reducing rate to kill team mates :3 Or maybe make a new weapon...like vanquish asked ...a knock back weapon...and calling it whatever...every one is happy :3 :cool:

Guys stop fussing go with my idea. :3 everyone will be happy :3. The latter half of my idea. From "Maybe make the mortar-everyone is happy :3" part.

So that I win the argument, the new name of "mortar" will now be "Giant Green Space Launcher". All in favor?
Really Giang Green Space launcher??? It should be named..Come Closer So I May Kick Your Robot Ass.

Now guys Just to conclude this silly argument.

It's not even about teamkilling. The fact that you can kill an outrider in ONE SHOT is positively ridiculous. It's also stupid when people MA with it in a group of people and 3 people die. The damage (not the knockback) is stupidly high. Make it rocket damage at most.

Rocket damage with that kind of fire rate? Are you crazy? Also, the fact that a few little rocket/grenade spammers will kill you, so let's nerf those. Keep in mind the new GL fire rate. Oh, and the CG can kill very quickly, so let's nerf that. The LR is obviously OP, so let's nerf that too. And hey, guess what? You've got a game that NO BODY LIKES.

Keep it the way it is. If you can't play around it, you suck.

WHat are you trying to say? that I get owned? And I come here to try and get it removed?...Open your damn eyes

Ah the text misunderstandings. I meant that if you are close to a mortar, you will get both hit and pushed back. But most of the time, you won't know that you were pushed back, because you are already dead by then.
