Destroyed by My Own Team

[keyman4u]

Tonight I was destroyed by my own team that I was on.  The DDs deliberately targeted me just after the game started, with the torpedo and destroyed me.  I ask why they were doing this and got no response.  The three are a group as a clan, they have an (A) in front of their name. If you run accost them be careful.  

 

I run all my ships from DD, CC, and BB.  My favorite is BB therefore I use it the most and have gotten good at destroying ships from a distance.  On one of the other forms I could not find again they complained about BB Captains not getting in the battle and fighting.  They need to go though the training and see what it says and how to run the BB ship. Many time I have called for help and was left hi and dry to die.  BB ship are not suppose to get right in the middle of the battle, they are to shoot from a distance.  

 

Yes, there are some BIG BBs that do little to nothing, I was left hi and dry with two Large BBs and an AC.  The three just sat there the whole game and did nothing.   I was down to one hit of death, I dodged the plane torpedo twice and lasted to the end of the game, with a victory.  So I understand the frustration with the large BBs, however it is pour sportsmanship and team play to destroy your own team member.  

 

What can be done about this?

Sending tickets, reporting, that's about it.

How do you send a ticket, this is the first time I have used the form.

scroll all the way up, you will see a button that says support next to the premium shop

You can report them in game by press TAB, right click on their name and choose appropriate action. They say WG does't act on this much so you may not want to do it.

i think the system actually detect intentional friendly fire.

I've saw a friendly Atago sending all his torpedos to 2 Yamatos in my team during the first 2 mins and he ends up detonate himself after the first salvo of torpedos hit the yamato.

He got a -1 kill in the list with no one except himself died in my team.

I know it detects friendly fire I have done it by accident or they crossed into it after I had fired already.  Thank you both for your answers.  I will get their ships names and they will also get posted here too.  I have had them in a number of games.  Guys like this do not need to play or have a time out.

Do NOT post their names here in the forum as there is a rule against doing it, referred to as Name & Shame... follow the advice of others and file the ticket, enable replays and move on.

If you don't have a replay, you might as well do nothing. They require a replay.

Thank you. to all of you for your advice. I will keep an eye on this and figure out how to save and then file a second ticket with the attachment.

I had that happen to me once a couple of weeks ago while playing my DD. An IJN cruiser player on my own team kept trying to shell me and even tried to torp while I was close. Fortunately, he died to the enemy pretty quickly and didn't actually get a chance to kill his own team mates.

 

I did have one REALLY frustrating team mate driven experience while playing my New Mex yesterday. If I could, I would have reached through the net to punch this guy. Had a solid formation going with a New York and a pair of cruisers heading to one of the caps. As we were driving between a pair of island, the New York turned hard right while next to me and then proceeded to push me into one of the islands ... and kept on doing so despite the obvious grinding sounds. He just kept pushing me to the right. Naturally, I beached on the island and came to a stop. The enemy team caught up before I could escape from there and shot me to hell.

 

I accept that I occasionally have bad games because of mistakes I make, but I have zero bloody tolerance for stupid team mates who's actions directly lead to my death. That's just messed up.

 

The following game was more of standard stupid. Had a great forward charge going with my New Mex and around five or six cruisers and destroyers. At the last minute, when the enemy was sighted, every single one of them turned and ran to a cluster of islands on the far right of the map, leaving my 21 knot BB alone to face four fast ships solo with no chance of escape. Needless to say, I died quickly and the rest of my team was decimated in short order. I don't know if it's the same people, but in my case, three of those cruisers with me, two Atlantas and a Cleveland, were in a division and had told me they'd join and support me before bolting. So in that case, I do suspect purposeful dickish behaviour.

Infusco - personally I think this is a bigger problem then the administrator realizes and if not addressed will only get worse.  Just like children that do not learn consequences early in life, they will end up coming  to my job site and stay for years; because the courts sent them there. I believe there must be some consequences for the action when proven who is the perpetrators are.

I have received a response and they say they will investigate the issue.  I am satisfied and the matter is closed as far as I'm concerned.
