I encourage you to contact customer support. Attach the server replay link as evidence that you did hot use guns, missiles or bombs to kill the friendly aircraft - and that you were rammed, not the other way around.
Asking in the forum in a kind of “open letter” is pointless - as gaijin is fully aware of this issue. Just search in this thread or on the bug report site for “ramming” and you will find a lot of similar cases. The bug report site had dozens of (unprocessed) similar cases.
So imho the only way to encourage gaijin to spend the money to solve this issue is to ask for a refund and restoring of eventually used boosters.
thank you, but, unfortunately, i cant find the replay of this match, i have tried to find this match via wt replay by time played, but, i cant find it, this match lasted for 2 mins but yeah, wt replay is kind of useless in this situation of mine. so thats why i dont ask for a refund, but an update to solve the problem, i guess gaijin is going to ignore me.
Didn’t they say they don’t deal with teamkill issues? Like if your account is banned for accidenct teamkill no matter by accident or not or System error they do NOT care at all.
I recommended to ask for a refund of a falsely charged team kill fine.
This is a pure economic topic. I described why this might make sense:
I got 2-3 years ago 3 times not counted “Mission maker” rewards, they did not change running task counters, but they paid out the 5.000 SL for each of those cases…
And now compare what you wrote based on what i had written before. You need to learn to read way more carefully otherwise you you waste the time of others.
I reported this exact issue (false TK) with replay, screen shots, and so on through the bug reporting system. I don’t think they care.
I was incensed because it happened in back to back matches. I double and triple checked to make sure I didn’t damage that friendly in any way. Much as @Flankyy said - it was a “jump scare” both times. I was maneuvering on a bandit and a friendly flew into my plane from behind my wings - i.e. he hit me and not the other way around.
Cannot see how I could possibly be held (solely) responsible for that BV-155 crashing into me. All because he and his buddy decided to take out the guy I was dog fighting =/.
As i do not teamkill on purpose or unintended (in general) i have zero experience if this “I apologize” and “I accept” actually works; maybe a fellow forum member or a GM can help here.
As i saw that @Necronomica is very active in this thread he might answer your question.
I saw this post and would to add something to think about:
Depending on map and BR range you are playing your logic does not work. At prop BRs on some maps ai planes fly in groups of six aircraft unable to identify targets and are circling somewhere on the map. On other maps their actions prevent enemy ground ai units from completing their tasks.
Damage on friendly units is considered in the friendly damage counter - u can test this by killing a few friendly ai planes or ai ground units - u will be kicked.
I assume i still hold a record of killing the most friendly ai units in a single match as i dropped my payload of a B-18B blind in order to lose weight to dogfight an enemy interceptor - my bombs somehow managed to fall direct on the Cologne railyard - 30+ friendly train car kills kicked me immediately out of the match😂
Was on a small prop map (3 bases with bombable airfield, should be some winter map) when I came up with this, by which there were only tank AIs and my team was 400 tickets short for 2 destroyed bases.
The game always count teamkilling harmful as default. Yet our topic is about Whether itself is or not / Is the game holding its own logic?
Haven’t been playing in Ruhr for a while. I miss the trains.
The only 3 bases Frontline winter map without ai planes is Lagoda.
But i don’t get your point in mentioning this as you correctly stated that there are no ai planes there. I won there a few days ago with 10:0 (yes, no typo) tickets (~12 minutes) as 2 friendly Pe-2s killed one base more than the enemy and a friendly Firefly killed 11 ground units.
The enemy team was too stupid to neutralize our ticket advantage despite they played 6-7 vs 2. Tickets melted away as the ai ground units killed each other very fast (as alwyas) …epic match regarding the outcome:
They changed the layout years ago…not longer available…
Have in mind that there is a huge spread between ticket bleed on non-respawning and respawning bases.
So i am not sure what your goal is as teamkilling own ai planes will get you kicked and therefore killing them in order to deny them to kill ticket bearing enemy ground units (in order to kill them with a player aircraft to reduce enemy tickets) makes just sense in theory.
In reality we just deal with game mechanics implemented by guys who either don’t play their game or have never heard about things like testing or quality management…
It’s all theory and thoughts lol. If my logic is correct, the only result would be having a conclusion saying “existing game mechanics doesn’t make sense” which is common in 2025 xD
Could be this one. At this moment I found that we can be out of kill-able ai before ticket bleeds to 0 (dunno if it can happen on larger maps), and we already know that AI attackers kill both soft and hard targets. Combining these 2 may give out what I was concerning.
as i always say: Gaijin should add an AI or smth to determine if the TK was intencional or accidental, since when u’re playing toptier, sometimes ur missiles can go against teammates by no reason (ARH missiles switching between ally and enemy cuz they passed one each other too close / IR missiles switching between ally and enemy cuz one of them had its rear clear and IRCCM missiles, even if the can go front-aspect, actually always try to go for rear-aspect since its the cleanest one to get the kill).
a random player here in the forums just sent me a replay of a F/A-18A gameplay and when he launched one of his AIM-7Ms at an enemy, the missile LITERALLY just turned its 25G to the nearest teammate.
Nah ai is bad and unreliable
(If you’re wondering nope I don’t have a better solution, but I’d rather no solution than some ai that will make bad decisions and make it even more frustrating)
