Currently, the game cannot determine if you're team killing by mistake or whether you're doing it intentionally.

Equally, if you've team killed 3 times in a relatively short period of time. Perhaps a change in play style needs to occur. Those players lost out on using a vehicle that game, because of your mistake.

You teamkill enough - you get a timeout.

Yeah i can understand that...its just that A-10 got no radar and i play sim battle. i have about 5000 hours in WT and this is the first time it happend. They could have just set it to 4 hours. Now my premium time is gone (just bought 24h before it happend)

Well I have to say first hand, getting team killed in simulator at high tier is even more frustrating. This is definitely a moment for reflection and learning.

Plenty of people fly in sim without a radar.

This sucks to be honest, but there needs to be some sort of method in sim to avoid teamkills - there's no question that intentional teamkilling should be punished.

I'm a layman and not involved in any mititary, but I know that today, military planes have some sort of IFF (Identification Friend or Foe) system - could a similar thing be introduced in sim?

If the plane has a radar in WT it can most often determine friend or foe. For example two horisontal lines on radar is friendly and one line is a enemy. Some radar can show it diffrent but same principal.

Exactly this, at high tier there are aircraft with IFF. There's also plenty of in-game communication options.

Understood, thanks. I don't play sim, just being curious.

you wanted better economy, now team killing is rampant.

if you actually did do it accidentally, you did it enough and maliciously enough for the team to report you, something tells me your story isnt true.

every match im complaining about tk-ers on the runway. glad to see something does get done

What do you mean WTF?

Well first: Be grateful it was only 24h... a ban can be from 1 to 7 days, depending on the situation...

And second: If you accidentally TK once or twice in a long time ( days, even longer ) it ignores it... happens to all of us eventually. Do it ~often enough~ you get a ban.. that's not once or twice in a long time if in two games you kill three teammates...

Finally third ( and the most fun ): Customer Support does not manage auto-ban reports and is unable to assist you in this case even a teamkill accident was unintentional....

TL;DR: Don't TK and it won't be a thing.

Not really relevant here as OP stated an issue with being unable to identify friendlies in Simulator battles.

Don't derail to have your own crusade.

No what OP is complaining about is he got a 24h ban after getting a 24h premium time...

4h ban won't discourage teamkilling with or without premium time... live and learn and be careful not to teamkill it may cost you IRL money... especially if unable to identify friendlies in Simulator battles, getting a 24h premium time should make one ~more~ cautious, not any less.

As unfortunate as this situation is, I’m glad they’re atleast doing something about the team killing

Theres a command People use called "on me" which marks friendlies in Sim. Guess People here dont know it and fly an A-10 in Sim .... on a BR where that command is used way more often because of the learning curve cause its a high BR. What do we learn ? Dont buy Premium Planes if you aint ready .....
