Let's keep it civil. No need for the insults.

Thanks for sharing your thoughts BlackBeardNerf,

I'd like to offer a few counterpoints to your claims:

1.) Though Kaid and Bandit have gadgets that electrify objects, they function in different ways that allow them to serve similar but different purposes. For example, Kaid cannot "Bandit trick" a surface, which can be a very strong counter to a hardbreacher in many scenarios.

The current TK punishment system is definitely not perfect and the team is aware of some of the issues that can arise with squads abusing the buffer.

Saying the system encourages bullying seems a bit harsh, what about it specifically do you feel entices players to TK?


I've seen many players suggest something along the lines of "Punish/Forgive" options after you've been TK'd, would something like that fix the problem in your eyes?
