    Hello

    I have noticed lately many times you are attacking a base there is often one team mate who c4 the sundreer. Many of those times is probably a raging enemy so i suggest delay on character switching so you can´t do these naughty things.

    There are other reasons that a player would TK a sunderer. The sunderer bubble prevents other sunders, which can hinder an assault.

    Yea i know but i don´t mean those times :) We had the perfect place for covering a control point and was close to win then 2 team mates destroy the sunderer without a reason and we lost and not only 1 time :(

    Don't forget the people who want to replace your sundy with their own so they can get the xp. :rolleyes:

    Use your brains... someone that wants to grief will find ways to do it. No stopping it - short of a strong anti grief system/bans/etc.

    Meanwhile... try a character switching deal when a tank or air shows up, and you're stuck waiting on the switch to respond to the new threats.

    This suggestion will only penalize people playing the game properly!

    I don't get where peoples ego gets quite so inflated as to think of an idea this blatantly elementary and dash to the forums as if in 18 months of play, no one else would have encountered the issue or thought of this possible solution.

    I also find it astounding that in the time it takes to actually write a post suggesting a change as impotent as this, people NEVER think 'Oh wait, it's an F2P game where players can have limitless accounts - maybe this wouldn't help at all after all...'

    Throw any delay you want, but if an enemy is really determined to rage-kill your sundy it's as easy as having multiple accounts. These types are already more determined than the majority when it comes to griefing, so don't be sure something like this will stop them.

    Oh! Another reason:

    If someone places C4 on a sunderer, it wont dissappear until the player who deployed it has died and re spawned. So an enemy can throw C4 down, then a grenade or a tank round can cause the C4 to explode. Whoever caused the explosion gets the credit for the kill, even if it was a friendly. I got killed in my vanguard one time by a friendly with C4, so I looked for him and it turned out he was 100m away in a lightning with a viper.

    Still i know this was not like this. This was a friendly. Other saw it too and some rage in the chat but it seems like no one liked my idea.
    I am going back to my cave. Bye
