Is'it possible to forbid suicides. I play often with few friends over LAN and one of them constantly killing him self when he has litle energy. Is it fair and is it possible with soldat game settings to forbid too many suicides?

Greetings

Uh, I don't think it is possible to "forbid too many suicides" or something along those lines.

taking away points for suicides would solve this problem

That doesn't make sense, a lot of the suicides are due to the invisible nades bug and weird bounces. I'd rather have an option that lets you disable self-damage.

There's a solution actually, A time penalty can be applied on suiciders, Like when you suicide you respawn after 20 seconds or something ... That'll make all suiciders stop for sure .. =D

Soldat is 1 of the few games that doesnt

ppl would be more carefull then, yet I admit invisible nades bug would make this solution unfair, but that's MM's problem...

You can't do it,he's saying it would be a good idea.

Long respawn would work well to stop sucide.

I like doing it in positive way in team games though.
(Throw away my weapon and run to enemy yelling "KAMIKAZE!", usually I get one)

I don't understand what the purpose is of killing yourself with low health. It's just dumb. I've gotten plenty of kills at low health, or I've at least kamikaze-style suicided.

If not in Meandor's idea (no self-damage), servers would have to automatically determine if a suicide was intentional or accidental (proba'ly close to impossible :P), and then have effects be carried out accordingly.

how about if it was a temp ban for doing too many suicides in a certain amount of time? (ie 3 in 10 minuites)

I don't mind the way it is... One who suiccides is obviously a worse player than you are... You will most likely win and in case of a draw..... you still win.... I don't mind.

I wonder why nobody mentioned, that in PointMatch you get 1- kill if you kill yourself...

Also in Team Match actually. That makes it fun for A$$holes to keep killing themselves and bringing down the points for the team.

I think making you lose points for killing yourself in DM would make sense, every other game does do it. If you happen to die because of your own nade or idiocy, then its your own fault. Besides, whats one point anyway, you can get like 10 more in a Dm in about 30 seconds...if that long.

Better I loss one frag on its garnet than loss 10 because of unpunished suicide of the enemy

Soldat did take away points for killing yourself, but that was a long time ago. and it was annoying, cuz half the time you kill yourself with your non existant nades that you didnt trow...

nooooooo well i hav lots of suicides (100 in over 1000 deaths) now taking points away is a good idea but for me no.....think its coz i nade spam a lot and dont keep the nade button pressed for long enough.

you don't die that much if you carpet nade... so it really wouldn't matter... i mean i do it all the time and my average of dieing that way on a game is twice...
