New Civi Engagment Rules

[BlackMagikz]

pfft , people kill civies no matter what , they don't give a shit if innocent or not.

a increase in penalties would be nice , because civi is a medic without a gun. If they are going to be shot might as well give them a gun or rifle. Since everyone shots at them anyway

On topic, I still firmly hold that there is only an issue with civvies because they have a longer spawn time and special (convoluted) ROE.

It adds an unnecessary and very hard to work angle to what is otherwise a very fun and imaginative gamemode.

I'm always open to roleplaying. Unfortunately, I do have to play within the constraints of the system, and those include the fact that many other players don't care for any pretense of roleplay.

(Personally, I'd be typing out/using voice coms for a LOT more than just crucial game information, but people think I'm a freak for how I'd want to play.) Don't presume I don't know what roleplaying is simply because of how I adapt to the specific needs of PR's battlefield.

I really don't get it why people just shoot civies for no reason. If you were a soldier irl, would you shoot you shoot anyone on sight if you're not sure what they have done? Of course not! Just take Iraq and Afghanistan for example. Did the marines shoot everything on sight? Nope. They respected the ROE and enforced it. Why everyone can't do that ingame? If I ever lead a squad ingame, i tell my squadmates to make sure the target isn't a civi before shooting. I have no tolerance for intentional civi killers; they get kicked out of the squad if I see it happen.

Will this ever get reworked? People shoot civies left and right and they get no punishment for it. I'm sick and tired of putting my hands up infront of the asshats noses and they just blatantly shoot me. Might as well give the insurgents a regular medic kit. The civi kit is a f****** joke. "But ay want ta shoot u cuz yoh help de insurgents" the meaning of the civi kit is to create a nice dimension which separates the game mode from anything else. By not shooting at everything that moves and checking your targets. But I guess it's a huge riddle for most of you how not to shoot an unarmed player. gtfo of that game mode then.

Would be cool if there actually were civilians in the game.

[GoreZiad]

But there's not. People won't even notice you 'cause they're so used to not having one around.

do they still lose points im not sure.

and yes only way to be a collaborator is to hide behind your squad, i once had a good experience playing as a collaborator, My squad where held up in a apartment building, we where using the roof to shot from, When one of my people got hit i could then just revive them out of view of the enemy. we managed by doing this to hold off the Americans for 6 minutes, and stop them from getting close.

But still the civies are still really F$$$ up , Ether change the rules to protect them or give them a AK,

lol a tazer would be cool i hate the civilians who want to trap me. the always do squats 20 meters away from me and i cant do anything :/

yeah yeah a tazer would be very unrealistic and stuff.

Only civis ive killed are the idiots, like the ones i clearly watched climb up a building with a rope then puts his hands up thinking hes safe instead of waiting a minute. I havnt had a civi punish since .85 and Ive shot plenty.

If im not sure though, I shoot at their feet and make em run away, its alot of fun in the Scimitar.

[GoreZiad]

Why don't you just check your targets and think "oh, that's a civi, when won't shoot him" instead of just spraying everywhere. You'll love the game alot longer trust me.
