So I just got kicked for using the fatboy

[Tazor]

Not for team killing anyone.

Apparently according to the host that is a trash overclock. And he doesn't feel like carrying me. This was early in the mission. I barely got a chance to play.

Toxic elitist streamer worshipper. I thought DRG was clean from such people.

I remember being kicked once for, "Sorry, but I have my reasons"... Not exactly sure what that's supposed to mean; All I can think is that I was using the sludge pump and perhaps the host lags with that weapon? I've heard that some people experience lag with it. 🤔I just wish I was given a proper reason so I knew what I did wrong.
To clarify, I had only just joined, and attacked one enemy with the pump before the host stopped moving and I was kicked.

I think Fat Boy is pretty annoying to play with and just generally dislike that OC, but it's not trash. Just annoying. Not worth kicking over 95% of the time.

"I have my reasons" is one of the three messages a host can select when they kick you. It can mean basically anything the host wants it to mean.

Just use the friendly fire perk and it barely does anything to other players even if you accidentally get them caught in the blast.

Depending on haz level, it goes from instakill to nearly dead.

Haz 5 is 70% FF, friendly should make it 35%. Fatboy starts at 440dmg ->154dmg.
Haz 4 would already reduce it to 88.

It means he selected that option out of 3.
Not even sure if it wasn't the default message.

Yes friendly fire on higher hazards sucks for the over clock. just means you gotta be careful choose your shots. And people need to understand not to run into the firing line of others.

really all you have to do is not fire at your team mates.

if you were doing elimination I would agree that Fatboy is a very poor choice and if you nuke the dread I absolutely hate you, but still not something kick-worthy.

Wut? Fatboy is great for dreads - solid impact and aoe dmg.

Stop using your guns as melee weapons.

[Ashaigo]

In this community, I've learned that 1/4 of hosts will kick you for any minor inconvenience and without warning. I think it's due to the fact that most hosts must be 13 and under.

No, it is not. Fatboy does barely any damage and now the entire battlefield is irradiated, disallowing your teammates to position themselves properly to do ACTUAL dps. This is the type of stuff that makes your noob status stick out like a sore thumb.

Very true, fatboy is really only good for swams and stuff. Or being orverkill and taking out a flea

I avoid joining games with people who have kicked me before (only about 3 people in over 100 hours) and games with descriptions that have demands in them. If a game says "Do X or get kicked" I avoid it at all costs. No good time can be had with a control freak.

"streamer worshipper" ? do people even stream this game? lol, this isnt a 'streamers influence this game' kinda game dude. fatboy is a fun OC, and who gives a flying sh*t what your teammates are running, so long as you have a brain between your shoulders every mission is a breeze too. just ignore the 1 in a 100 toxic experience and move on, theres a post like this literally every single day. Honestly this kind of post should be considered spam and get removed, its totally useless and comes up constantly whenever someone has ONE bad experience.

that message is just one of the default messages; when you kick someone you can select a message saying why.

I see, I've never kicked anyone before, and I hope I never have to.
It's rare that I host games myself, I'll always try to join a match first, but if there are none running, then I'll host.

My favorite use of the fat boy is to nuke a lure and have all the bugs give themselves a radiation bath.
