I think it is. The reason for this is:

I get the sniper in Team Slayer, then some noob betrays me for it. However, I don't get the chance to boot him. So I go and get revenge and take my sniper back, and suddenly I'm booted!

Another situation is where I was in a Revenant in BTB, and I drove over the Blue teleporter (I was on Red Team) and one of my teammates comes out as I am one foot away, and thus I get booted and he goes to salvage my weapons and other stuff.

What do you think?

I think I would like to see friendly fire be disabled. That solves betrayals.

Then there's the jerkasses...

I agree. I think that no one should be able to kill their friends, or push them of edges.

Just because it was in Halo 3 doesn't mean it's good.

Let's not dumb this game dumb any further. Also friendly vehicles are NOT effected by friendly fire being off.

Never saw this much -blam!-ing about the system in Halo 3..

fear me, for i am pro sauce

its the system and the players who boot

i got booted for betraying a team mate who was being assassinate with the animation, i shot him twice with a sniper (my no-scoping is terrible)

the system needs tweaking but players need to stop booting because the choice was given

i ignore the first betrayal but if they do it again i boot them, unless i know the first time was on purpose



removing friendly fire will make everything worse

I never said it was any good. In fact, I think its worst than Halo 3's booting system.

As long as any type of Human decision is involved, it will be flawed. That is why I think it needs to be automated in some way.

You expect too much in the world of anonymity.

You're trolling right? You honestly consider that -blam!-ing?

Yeah. I hardly ever betray, but am betrayed almost every other game, yet I'm booted for 1 betrayal in the past 100 games or something.

I'm too tired to elaborate, but if there was not friendly fire damage, you could exploit that HEAVILY..

Could.

But most people who betray are probably too dumb to figure it out.
