Hello,
Today while playing on Barb, g2 was being planted I went to the base and because it was just started to be planted I chucked gernades down the pipe hole. They went off and another player on my team was going down the steps and was killed. He quickly told on vent that I team killed him, I did not think this was posible to do, and do not like being called a team killer!
I have been I many situation where I was heading to defuse and another player jumps out of a jeep an kills me I'm sure it was not on purpose and let it go. I'm sure it was an acident.
Viper I am not quite sure why you are even posting the above on the forum. When the action occured it appeared that you did tk me and when I glanced at who killed me (at the time I would have sworn it was you), however as you said I said "quickly on vent" everyone else said the exact same things that everyone has posted on this thread. Including that you probably threw your nade and you died and then you're nade killed me. Regardless, at the time everything was explained to me I did say I was sorry and moved on with the game.
I do not bad mouth anyone and try to get along with everyone. If I have a problem with someone I go right to that person and get it straightend out. I sure would not have posted anything here about it especially after everything was explained the way it was.
The reason I am just now answering this post of yours is because I was just tonight made aware of it.
In case you did not hear my verbal apology then here it is written on the forum.
I am sorry for calling you a Team killer. When you are in the heat of battle it is kinda like trying to drain the swamp when you are up to your rear in alligators. Know what I mean? Everything is pretty hectic.
So when you coming back to Barb?
A gernade won't kill a teammate just because the "thrower" is dead. He has to be team switched or gone to spectate. Otherwise teamkills would happen all the time, such as when a person drops their artllery but then gets killed. Using the above theory, for 10 second then the artillery would kill anyone. This is not the case.
Viper says he wasn't team-switched or in spectate, so IMO the most likely scenario is you read the screen wrong, seeing a "dead Viper" and a "dead you" and added them together by mistake that the two together meant Viper killed you.
The only way to TK someone without being teamswitched (that includes being in the team switch screen, even if you don't select anything) or going to spectate is
1. Drive over someone who is prone
2. Jump from vehicle so it's momentum drives over someone. However, in that case it does not tell you who killed you.
3. Push someone off a cliff
