This basically comes about when the game cannot decide who to give the kill to. Close quaters combat with grenades and rocket launchers usually yields this message because the game can't decide if the person was killed by his/her opponent or by suicide.

Your post has just under 15 errors. Some of the errors I corrected were technically okay, but are better phrased as I wrote them.OK, so I was playing system link with 3 other friend and they were all against me. I was in a base and one of them killed me and it said, "Lt.hell was killed by the Guardians." I don’t know why it said that I was killed by the Guardians; it was really strange. Can someone tell me what happened or if they have had that as well?

so i heard two different things...one was it was some thing that the programmers put in there just for the hell of it or something, and the other was that when your up close to someone and they shoot you right as you melee attack them then it will say the guardians killed you. i dont know exaclty i think that it has something to do with you and another person hitting each other at the same time. i know ive been killed by the guardians before. (personally i think being killed by the guardians is really cool)

I think its a neat little suprise in the game as well. Even if it is just a mask for flawed design.

You have well over twenty errors in your post. Here is the corrected version:So, I’ve heard two different things: One was it was something the programmers put in there just for the hell of it or something, and the other was that when you’re up close to someone and they shoot you right as you melee attack them then it will say the Guardians killed you. I don’t know exactly I think that it has something to do with you and another person hitting each other at the same time. I know I've been killed by the Guardians before. (Personally, I think being killed by the Guardians is really cool.)

Spelling whiz's corrections are oddly amusing this morning.

When two players kill each other, the game very frequently doesn't know who to give the kill to. A dead person can't kill anyone, so there's a problem.

Get two players together, have them melee with the same weapons simultaneously. if you do it just right, one player will get the "guardians". You can try the same thing with rockets, snipers, etc... it's just fun to use melee. It happens anytime two player die simultaneously or a condition like someone dying makes the game think it would be impossible for them to have killed another player.
