You’ve completely lost the plot. Taking advantage of the enemy’s lack of awareness to get kills is fine. That’s part of the game and well within the bounds of sportsmanship. Its akin to scoring an empty net goal because the goalie moved out of position.
What I am talking about is someone who, upon realizing a bomb has been dropped and will kill them, J’s out to deny the dropper of the bomb the kill. That is not sportsmanlike at all, its a petty exploit of the games mechanics. It’s as if you’re losing a tennis match and instead of accepting the loss you break your own racket and scream “YOU DIDNT WIN” at the opponent.
Nah it’s more like playing a tennis match and someone kicks a football at Mach 2 (CAS) onto your face because it’s “unfair” that you got points and they didn’t get any
I think you have with your Victorian etiquette : )
Gaijin set the rules of what is legal and what is not and that is it.You don’t need to add to them and if you do it’s for yourself only.
The game has changed a lot by people trying to play gate keeper.Many of those who J out are simply hitting the off switch in disgust,who knows when and if they will return.
Much could be done to ease the frustration and losing CAS is one of them.
You can do it but it wont work unless there is exact text in game rules which specify one cannot J-out whenever one likes even to prevent from being killed.
The rules against unsportsmanlike are broad enough to allow moderators to interpret player behavior at their discretion.
Also I don’t think the anyone should be banned for breaking a rule one time unless its using cheating software. I just want the guy to get the on screen warning over it and hopefully make him think twice about doing it again because its wrong.
If you get reported for something like this then when you join the game you get a pop up window that tells you people have been reporting you for unsportsmanlike conduct.
That is the outcome I want for this individual. An on screen pop up telling him he’s done wrong.
I am not defending him just saying nothing will happen. I play WT since closed beta and I have never heard someone got any reprimand because of braking ethical rule.
Short answer: TO wouldn’t work because it’s extra time, money, and manpower spent for a mode that would bring 0 returns, and if anything, negatively impact the game due to longer queue times.
Long answer, I’ll just paste what Eftwyrd from the Steam forums said.
