Team vehicle damage my buttocks...

I was driving an M1A2 on Steel Thunder... northward toward the bridge outpost, dig? Anyway, I went over a few nancy boy hills and somehow got a ****load of damage and received a score of -12 for my escapades.

WTF.

Might be tied to the fact that tanks now register with the server as "occupied" even when they aren't, because they're tied to a team.

You also get points for repairing unoccupied vehicles, which could open doors to stat-padding, although this would be useless in PRMM.

Another thing that pissed me off was that I was near the building near the Oilfields on Oasis, and I was going to launch a HE grenade into the room... I was planning for it to ricochet off the wall, because it's not supposed to explode when it hits a target 20 feet away

Well, a teammate thought he'd try to enter right as I was doing that. Then ANOTHER teammate thought he'd try the same while my nade landed in there. Neither HE ricocheted. Finally, my idiotic teammates realize what I'm doing, and this time I fire and it ricochets off the ****ing door and hits three teammates at once

Not as bad as the dozen or so times I tried to throw a grenade at about 85 degrees onto a rooftop, ended up throwing at 91 degrees, and blew up half my squad.

Not as bad as when you throw the nade a few inches (using right click but letting go way to early) into the middle of your whole squad.

ROFL @ the unfortunate circumstances we PR'ers face on an everyday basis

We need the "team vehicle damage" penalty reduced to -0 points, so we know we're doing something "wrong" but not punished in case we're just getting rid of a wreck.

yeah i dont get it, it seems like the grenades only ricochet when they feel like it.

and yeah team vehicle damage is way too high.

i've noticed this too, even if the tank is blown to bits,or empty, and you drop some bombs from an aiplane you get Team Vehicle Damage.

what about:
when a player drives over a mine of his teammate...
...the people in the vehicle get an 'is no more' death...
so the dude placing the mine...
cant get a punish for it.
