NEXT VERSION LETS MAKE IT SO THAT WE CAN SHOOT THROUGH OUR TEAMMATES EXCEPT FOR Friendly Fire. IT REALLY PISSES ME OFF WHEN A TEAMMATE STNDS IN FRONT OF YOU WHEN YOUR FIRING A LAW :)

NEXT VERSION WE INCLUDE A FEATURE TO MAKE YOUR CAPSLOCK KEY EXPLODE OK?????


PS: bad idea, its a matter of coordination and teamplay to not run into each other's firing line.

This wouldnt be so bad idea , but the game will have less tactic ...
..atlast I like it how it is ...{ but i dont like when my mate is still spraying and i think he will finaly stop so I jump amd my mate give me a headshot from law or only from his gun ): }

i don't like it, it just makes no sense. itll just motivate people to stand right next to eachother with mini guns. i dont want a whole team of minigunners just standing behind eachother shooting

I think this is a good idea for these reasons...

-Mass attacks would work much better: Right now every once in a while you'll hear someone say "let's all attack at once kekeke"
if you try it, it is usually a failure because half your teams shots hit your own team. I think with this idea implemented there would be more team strategy. Support fire would also be much more effective if you could get a few players in the same spot. With effective cooperation and tactics like this I think the game would be much more interesting.

-No more annoying things: Like hitting your teammates with your gun, dumb teammates blocking your shots, selfkills with LAW/m79/nades due to teammates running in front.

-Still Makes Sense: Soldat isn't exactly true 2D, if it was, soldiers would collide with each other. I don't think it would be too strange seeing shots pass in front of or behind teammates.

I fully support this idea, if not as a complete change then as an option "[x] friendly shot collision" or something like that.

Or, how about letting the cursor/sniper line tell you when someone is in the way?!

I don't like this idea, cause imagine ten people with miniguns all standing by eachother.
Or Barretts.

I would like it only for the M72 LAW alone, because if you're aiming at someone almost a whole monitor away you can't tell if some moron comes up in front of you and you commit suicide/injure yourself really badly from it. But if you enable all projectiles to pass through teammates, then people will just grab Minimis and besiege the tunnels in ctf_Equinox and ctf_Laos :P

yah maybe instead of just having all the weapons go through everyone, this is just for m79 and LAW

Yes, for explosives I'd love. For others, no, because I see SPAS'-users purposely fire at teammates from behind to boost them forward more X-D

Bad idea, I like it the way it is.
Bullets already go threw ure teammates, altho most of the power has been stripped from it, but M79's and Laws? Nah...
(I am a law user, so its not the fact that i dont like laws, i also like the m79 :))

what the hell are you talking about? the bullets dont go through your teammates, only barretts do that i think. It's actually not really a problem for me with LAW's but mostly with m79's.

Dascoo, bullets do go threw ure teammates.

...Dascoo go start a server put a few bots on ure team stand realitvly near them & shoot them (No FF) You will see bullets continue there path with their power stripped & lined with blood

Dascoo - I haven't tested this but im pretty sure it works with Deagles, Ruger & Barret, im not too sure if it works with autos, maybe you can test :)

how about being able to wear a red bandana, put the m79 in your mouth and run around screaming

straight into the enemy base before exploding into a shower of guts taking out anyone whose name has an 7 or 33 in it...

Good idea.

Also, the "10 people with miniguns" thing would be annoying, but cool just to see that much power.

MWAHAHAHAHA.

but the idea to make it an option is an OK idea.

Keep it the same way it is now as you need to actually know how to shoot so that would take like 5% of skills out of it.

What about curves? Then the quintuplet of Minigunners will just camp closer to the entrance to the lower area of ctf_Laos so curves will be nullified, that's all.
