Introduce Friendly Fire

[Alejandro Viran]

Fairly straight forward: let us sink the idiots who don't still know how to sail after four years of playing this game or the Russians who are more loyal to Russia and their friends in other nations than to the nation they're playing for.

Give me a -1000 reputation for it, I don't care. You guys do nothing when we report nefarious crossteaming anyway so give us a mean to solve it.

It'd be interesting to see this play out in the Pirate nation. Hell, I'd support this just for the spectator sport...

Further reason this idea is incredible.

I like the idea, but feels civil war would wait around every corner, and in the end, would definetly kill the game. But as spectator sport, as said...it would be awsome!

Remember how that "useful" tool Traitor Flagging just ended up as a broken mechanic that didn't do anything useful for anyone? Friendly fire would be so much worse.

Plus, it would enable much nastier crossteaming behaviour.

Traitor Flagging was pointless because it created drama, yet did nothing of value because -50 reputation, once per day per account flagging you, is a joke.

Friendly fire, otoh, is effective.

And if it enabled nefarious crossteaming, it would also give us a way to counter it. As it is, I get t-boned by my own teammates in Port Battles, the guy keeps the t-bone on purpose, and I can't do anything about it. Then, try to prove it's done on purpose so FLS can do something (hahahaha) about it. It just doesn't happen. I had this guy do it twice in the span of a single PB, with his buddy pushing me on a fortress as we were reaching the fort and there was no one in front of us. Still, no sanctions will ever happen.

Giving us a mean to defend ourselves and teach the carebears - many of whom have been playing this game for over three years - how to sail or be sunk.

I am all for friendly fire mechanics done in a proper fashion. Great idea. sign
