There needs to be something done about the SU-30 and such spammers that lawn dart the moment a SPAA locks them

I’ve seen it SO many times now, they just lawn dart the moment my Sky Sabre or something locks onto them.

i expect you mean Multipathing, and what exactly do you want them to do instead?

3

Im talking about Players that suicide instead of actually taking the L and dying to a Missile.

Happens properly to multipathing when hitting a tree.

Even if you do it on purpose it’s valid as it helps your team.
Yes it’s scummy but bring your team to victory any means necessary.

its also literally against the rules of the game.

Purposefully crashing to deny kills is in direct violation of the games rules

can you quote it and provide a source? i can’t seem to find that rule

There is no such rule IIRC (Could be wrong, I’ll check the rules again). Besides that it would be tough to justify if the player multipathing died due to a tree or it was an intentionally crash or their PL/ping is way too high which caused them to crash.
There is nothing that can be done about them (Or I cannot think of anything)

The only option I can think of is rewarding a partial kill or maybe an asisst when:

  • Someone crashes with an active missile tracking them (of any kind)
  • Someone crashes in extremely close proximity to an enemy player (like sub 2km)

This is a good idea however

What if more then 1 player launched at they enemy, who would be getting the reward then?

Why not all of them?

We do already have the severe damage mechanic where more than 1 person can get the kill for a player. Why not just do the same in this regard. If everyone who had a missile tracking got an assist or something, then I dont really dont see the harm

I would suggest that for SARH/ARH to require the missiles to be within a certain distance to reward anything, to mitigate random payouts from very long ranged spam. So if the target crashes within the missiles terminal range or something.

and remember this is just if the target suicides to deny the kill. not that everyone will get an asisst if the target is killed with other missiles active.

But if it needs to be limited, just have the closest missile(s)

Whoever got their missile closest, obviously. You probably shouldn’t be rewarded for just launching a missile
