You cannot fully turn off friendly fire. It's one of the main features of this game.

Friendly fire is one of the parts of this game that keeps it somewhat unpredictable, while adding challenge, which for me at least means more fun too. There does seem to be a workshop mod though so if you installed this and hosted a game you can select no FF as a challenge. Personally i wouldnt recommend it as you wont learn crucial gameplay but the beauty of the workshop is the choice is there for you to make yourself :D

I have no idea if it works but id guess the comments would be full of complaints if it didnt

EDIT:You know, just incase you havnt found this for yourself in the last 6 months! ^^

guys, I understand that this is part of the gameplay. but there is a category of people who just go running through the game for the sake of "just shooting with friends." We once held such a server (with the original version of the game) but closed it due to inactivity.

there is also the backfire mod

even then it's more fun to learn how to avoid firing on your friends over just shoot like a ♥♥♥♥♥♥ through everything including friendlies.
by default (e.g. without hardcore friendly fire) the game shields marines from friendly fire damage, and you have to overcome that shield before you start damaging marines.

Which essentially means you're just shooting blindly over & over at friendlies.

positioning is a crucial element of this game. if you & your team position themselves correctly you will win maps easily whatever settings you use.

Friendly Fire is so players don't shoot over players, the reason for this is so that people going down coridoors are OP

it also helps fix the fire on hostile aliens and not teammates.

Another way is to install Backfire Workshop mod. No need to worry about friendly fire from allies anymore... those suckers get what they give.

actually the other time I was in "gandalf"s mode" which apparently includes backfire. I was playing heavy and firing on a horde and .... I didn't expect this guy to cross my fire, died outright XD (because I wasn't really moving and there was a lot of aliens to deal with so there was really no point for him to go in front of me without rolling.... so yeah backfire doesn't solve everything

It does make you watch your fire and keep an eye on things instead of just blindly firing.

Plus, for some reasons, Backfire games tend to not have anyone get lit up by Flamers. Part of the coding I guess, but the only way to get set on fire is to walk into a fire mine (and kill the Officer who planted it)

it does but in gandalf's mode with only a minigun & no other support fire in a corridor you don't really have the opportunity to hold your fire xD
