Zeus X27 instant kill on frendlies

[Ben Dover]

You play the game and get 3 kills, die to the last enemy player and someone calls out to you "noob" (who gives a ♥♥♥♥, right?) but then the same person buys a Zeus X27 to kill you and get some revenge on you because he is mad.

My question is why does this weapon instant kill frendlies, because currently a good portion of players I played with used it on me and others on my team to bypass freindly fire ban.

The Zeus will kill friendlies, but it still counts as team damage, so they will still get a cool down if they tk too much.

killing your teammate with a zeus doesnt bypass the system.

maybe he means the instakick if you tk directly after a round starts? wasnt there something like that? if so this would be a legitimate bug and something valve could/should fix

I got killed by an angry teammate with the zeus x27 twice in two rounds(both 1 shots of course) and since he was playing with a freind his freind also killed me once

All kills were about 3-10 secs after a round starts

300 teamdamage or 3 teamkills or X teamdamage after spawning. so he was still safe

yeah if he waits long enough or if this is indeed a bug

anyway: report for griefing, if he gets banned the match wont count anyway^^

it depends on the spawnzone? i always thought it depends on time

would a teamkill one minute in also instakick you if its made in the spawnzone? just curious since some spawnzones are part of the gameplay zone (dust2, inferno, mirage) while others arent (nuke)

time and if you were in spawnzone. i had someone afk for 10 seconds, he didnt move and i got kicked because i gave him a headshot :D pretty sad stuff but i doubt that it will work for as long as a minute

what would happen if they removed damage done to teammates with it anyway? can't valve do that?

they could, but it feels more competitive if you have teamdamage on. i couldnt imagine being pushed through a molotov because teamdamage is off...

then you could throw a molotov and your team could walk through it and the enemy cannot

also you could fire continously while teammates move through your line of fire, bad idea overall

I know that would be stupid but I meant just for the zeus x27
