Reasons for kicking?

[SLUGGER]

So I kicked a guy who dropped an orbital bombardment on the extraction pad, killing 2 team members. I also kicked a guy for "Not being a team player." He just ran off and was doing all the objectives on his own. Justified or no?

[AxisTitan]

friendly fire so common in this game and its not logical to kick someone because of that, to me.

If quickplay still didn't work id say its wrong but who cares anyway

I kicked my first player today on Suicidal because in his infinite retardation, he decided to bring a mortar into an egg hunt mission. Now I'm usually pretty partial to the mortar myself but this guy would drop a mortar every single time we'd get into the hive to hit the eggs and it absolutely bled out our lives. Not a good loadout for egghunt.

"Then don't run into it! LOL"
Okay, well, we're on the clock and those eggs need to be destroyed, so while I'm happy you're killing everything as it pops out of a hole, you are fragging us because the only reliable way to get all the eggs is going in person. This was also an issue while trying to clear out the hives. If your strategems were on cooldown, you have to go in and nade the bug holes. Unfortunately for us, they continually spawn new enemi---I mean targets for the homicidal mortar. ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ Skynet.

Dude I had this same guy lmaoo. He wiped out our lives and constantly was putting down that damn mortar. He was like 70% of our deaths in that mission...

Yeah Idk if I can justify either kicking. I am somewhat new to the game and make mistakes but I am getting better at communicating and making sure I don't screw over my comrades in terms of blowing them up and such, also someone said it above, sometimes it does take that one person to complete the objectives. Obviously its your game and you can kick whoever you want.

[Nader]

Yeah first one justifiable second one not really as i'm one of those that tends to split off some times as i'm helping grab everything so everyone gets the max rewards.

[AnHonestSoul]

1st one could have been a mistake.

It happens fast that you accidently kill your mates, even if you know what you are doing. It could also have been a griefer, sure. But even then a kick isn't justified. Nobody likes griefers. Nonetheless everyone still gets rewards in the end. Now if you kick the griefer, you are the one who negatively influenced a teammember the most: You kicked him. Regardless of wether or not he teamkilled on purpose that single time in the end, these guys still get rewards. The one you kick won't get anything for the whole time he was playing with you.

Now if a griefer starts a teamkilling spree straight from the start, or stealing stratagems over and over, simply trying to ruin other peoples fun at all costs, than you would have a point. But that doesn't seem to have been the case.

In your case the kick was absolutely overkill, without even much thought you put into what could have been the intention behind that teamkill. Let alone if its fair regardless of intention.


2nd one sounds like the opposite of "not a teamplayer".

For some, a teamplayer is a person who is glued to the team non stop. Literally. Only exception is splitting up for tactical reasons after the team communicated about it. Though others who go for straight lone-wolfing think they are a teamplayer as well no matter the coordination. They want to get the team the objectives, so the rest of team can focus on something else. They skip the communication part and think its good and more time effective for everyone.

So, who is the teamplayer now? I tell you who the teamplayer is:

They are all teamplayers in their very own way. Not everything requires communication, coordination or other personal requirements to become a teamplayer in this game. As long as you do your part and the team is successfull, the whole team will benefit from it and gets rewarded in the end.

This kick wasn't justified either.



Tldr: Both kicks weren't justified.

1st
Needs more context in my opinion, sometimes ♥♥♥♥ happens.

2nd
Happened to me yesterday.
Joined a difficulty 4 mission with 3 new players and just cleared the side objectives and a few outposts on my own.

Never died or called in supplies and like 10 min in the mission I was kicked.

If you don't like players doing that I would say warn them in chat, since coming from playing difficulty 7 or up its pretty normal to split up.

[Platapoop]

In my friend group 4 man, we always split up at the beginning. Might stick together if someone dies and another person is close to a spicy objective like a major nest.

Pretty sure bot drops and bug breach has a cooldown or something, so if someone gets a bug breach, the other 3 people are in the clear to do objectives really easily.

This game is different...
It's not as serious, as other games in terms of teamkills. That being said, if a guy drops a bomb accidently on you, maybe once or twice, get over it. It happens. If he's doing it all the time on purpose -> kick him.

One thing which is definitely more of a non-teamplayer-death sentence, is, when there are guys in the team, which are gonna loot your stuff, before you get back in, after a death. I don't mean the samples, these are shared, i am speaking of the special weapons. It's an unwritten law in this game and a total no-go!

If that would happen in my game: i would warn him. If he does it again -> kick.

(To be more precise: i am not talking about the last clutch seconds before pick up, i am speaking of a normal death mid game...)

The guy that runs off on there own is literally useing the endgame tactic of playing if you try to do a last man stand on high difficulty doesnt matter if you have the whole team with you or not your going to get wiped its called ghosting get in compleet the objective and get out with as minimal contact as possible if your kicking ppl for useing a valid tactic your going to find yourself alone at endgame

[SkyKing Thighgap]

No and No

[Pain_Train]

Honestly man dont take it personally, I kicked a couple people because they were not pulling their weight, and one dude had literally 12 deaths. If you're doing really poorly, you might get kicked, if you're not then who knows maybe their friend jumped on and you're the one they decided to kick. Do not let it ruin the fun for you i've been kicked before and it aint the end of the world.
