    How do YOU react when people doesn't help you?

    Hi, I'm curious about your reactions when your teammates can help you (with ammo, health, repairs), but they don't? Say you're running behind a Support soldier, you're all out of ammo, you keep shouting for Ammo help, but he only looks stupid at you.

    This is the thing that pisses me off most in BF2.

    About a week ago, me and 2 others were guarding a flag, and I was an AT soldier. A tank rolled up, I used my 2 last rockets to get him smoking, and started shouting for ammo. I see the ammo icon in my map, run over to the guy, and request ammo. This idiot doesn't help me, but just keeps running around the area, doing nothing useful. I say in teamsay "Dude, please give me an ammo bag so I can take out the tank" - but to no avail.
    I give him a pistol shot to the legs, to call his attention. He turns around, looks at me, and I request ammo another 2-3 times. He turns his back to me again, and keeps running around like a headless chicken. I give him another shot to the leg, at which point he turns around and wastes me with his PKM.

    And yesterday, I was in a buggy which only had 3-4 bars of health left, so I shouted for repairs. An icon lights up on the map, I drive over to him, and request repairs again. As I drive up to this person, he jumps into the buggy without repairing it. I shout for repairs a couple of times, but this moron is just sitting in the damaged buggy with his wrench appaerently jammed far up his arse. I drive the buggy a few meters so that we're facing a solid wall of mountaint (this way he doesn't have anything to fire at), and shout for Repairs again. The guy still just sits there in my smoking buggy. I type in Teamsay: "Hey dude, please use your wrench and fix the buggy". No reaction.
    After a minute of just sitting there, he jumps out, and I think "What? Did his brain finally start working?". But noooo, after jumping out, he runs away. I shout for repairs again, he doesn't react - so I exit my vehicle and hits his back of the head with a guided rocket. I picked up his kit, and fixed my vehicle myself.

    How can people be this stupid? It gives them points, it helps their team, it increases his chance of surviving the buggy ride, plus it'd make me happy.

    I really hate teamkillers, but sometimes imo it's justified. Pure stupidity deserves nothing but a bullet to the head
    That being said, these are the only 2 times I've deliberately teamkilled after about 70 hours of BF2.

    Now, what would YOU do in the situations like above?

    When someone doesn react for resuplie , medic, repair, I just look for another person who maybe will react to it, running after someone doesn't help, that's just loosing time

        You have to realise many people who play this game are idiots. Often they probably don't even know what class they are playing so they won't know what you want from them. They won't read in game chat so they won't see what you type to them.

        I would not shoot at them or anything though as that just makes you a smacktard in my book.

        Normally in the situation when I run out of ammo and can not get resupplied I ask for a supply drop or pick up a kit of a dead player.

          This happened to me today


          I was a sniper and was outta ammo, and there was a a support ontop of the building with me, sooooo I call for ammo.................



          Nothing




          Then I realised he was the commander.....



          ok, So I ran over to him and blocked his view, spamming "I need Ammo!"



          thinking he was still in commander view, I shot him. He moved around, looked at me as I spammed "I need ammo" the ran to another part of the roof and went back to commanding.


          I repeated this and even pushed him off the roof! :laugh:



          Finnaly I formed a sqaud and requested supplies.........and he dropped them. I then team chated that he is a support and could have just tossed an ammo bag. To which I got the reply

          "Wha?"

          :hmm:

            True, I'm always careful to watch the scoreboard before judging people - as a lot of the players are noobs, hell I used to be one too :p
            If it's a noob, I leave him alone.

            Both guys in the above examples had good scores, and when they do I expect them to help me.

            Oh, and another thing that annoys me beyond anything is squad members who punishes their squad leader when killing them in an accident.. I immediately click ` -> Manage Squad -> Select idiot in squad -> Kick :p

              It's annoying the amount of medics that are available on any given map that actually don't bother helping anyone... they've only chosen medic to help themselves.... which is nice.

              The amount of times I die, I need medical attention badly... don't let me down people !

                      I do get annoyed when i've following a group around for a while healing and reviving them and then when I die they dont even have the smarts to grab my pack and revive me, but the games still all about points...

                      I'm hoping that when most of the average joes out there get corporal and find a big point gap ahead of them they'll play more for the game rather than the points.

                      Look after the players around you and they'll look after you.

                        Posted this in another thread yesterday but it's far more relevant to this one...

                        I went assault once specifically because my squad leader was support and I figured that he'd be able to fill me up on grenades. Sure enough, when I ran out and started asking for more ammo he ignored me completely, even when he wasn't fighting (do these people honestly go support for the gun?). After five minutes of following him around, standing in front of him and desperately begging for ammo (even over VOIP) I sure as hell wanted to TK him. When he finally died to enemy fire I looted his kit and threw supply packs on his corpse for the next 15 seconds. Funnily enough when he respawned he was more than generous with the supplies. I think he got the point...

                        Just to be clear I have and will never TK anyone intentionally. All it does it add to the problem.

                            It definitely doesn't help my cause, but it sure as hell cures some of the aggression :p

                              They might have good scores because they have played a lot of other FPS.
                              They might even be a BF:1942 veteran which means in general they would be good at the game style but might not be up on the features added in BF2 like ammor resupply by the support class. I know it seems unlikely but players like this do exist.

                              I mean really why would someone not resupply you unless they just do not know how to do it or that is is even an option?
