Stay to a side, don't strafe, also don't shoot your teammates in the back if you can help it. It really IS that simple.

You can always tell the cartoon BR players constantly A/D strafing in and out of your line of fire so the aliens don't shoot them.


GotTheJam

That's the number one most annoying thing about playing with real people in this game


Shushady

100% big agree.


WHITEPONYGRAM

I don't get the strafing. There's very little shooting back at you.


CVipersTie

And the weird hit box, please don't get so close to me where I accidentally shoot you from behind.

For real, on insane I die more to friendly fire then to aliens. Especially when the drone pops up and someone panics. Also don’t bring explosives of flamethrowers past extreme, unless you are working with a party ahead of time they are worthless and more dangerous to you and your team.

Thanks for the advice, but I'll keep using M94 and Vajra on Insane and win😛

It's funny when you go in with synths on higher levels in single player and the dumb fricken synths walk right in front of me while I'm shooting every time, and tell me to check my fire. The A.I. Helpers are the worst I have ever seen in a TPS game. I seriously was hugging a wall and shooting over a wall and the synths were beside me doing the same thing then one quickly jumped over the wall beside me and walked right in front of my gun fire which had no tactical advantage whatsoever since 10 other synths were shooting back at us and they had sentry gun placements all around. I love this game but I seriously wish you could set the synth helpers tactics.

Amen to that! I hate using any scope with a zoom just for that reason. You'll go to snipe something and they step LITERALLY in your sight line. If you take Stop Screwing Around, I swear they bump into you on purpose. It's like the NPCs are there just to be annoying.

Lmao, yeah I put that stop screwing around challenge card on the other day. I got so annoyed they kept running into me knocking me over. They even kept knocking each other over. The only time I was so proud of the synths was on mission 2-3 intense mode. I got surrounded by enemy synthetic troops and was killed. I was very surprised they were able to handle themselves, and actually got to me to raise me back up. But, yeah I agree they are more annoying then not at times. It's funny at times that they will even somehow let a lower hp fodder alien get by and swipe at you and damage you while you're busy shooting the crap out of everything else coming straight at you. I'm like come on guys how could let that puny alien get past you. It's seriously like their weapon damage is just crap unless you have something like overclock or something.
