Why do games have friendly fire?
- Thread starter shoot and hope
- Start date
'Cause the guy who fired it was a friendly soldier.superbatranger said:
Although if we're speaking literally, he really wasn't...
To add another layer of realism and skill required to excel in the game.
I'm still quite fond of the "MW2 Ricochet" method of dealing with friendly fire, you shoot someone, you take the damage!

Friendly fire is present for the same reason that weapons with splash damage can make you kill yourself.
It's there to make players be careful and think about what they're doing, you can't just sprint around blindly emptying a nuke cannon into anything that moves (that's gonna result in you reducing most of your team to a fine paste before you've even found the enemy).
Friendly fire 'forces' a team to work together and be mindful of where they each are in relation to one another (or it could have bad consequences).

yes but im talking about the people that arnt carefull and do it on purpose because there bored.
Because it's funny to grief losers who have no life aside from playing another stupid, derivative FPS game online.
I mean seriously. I'm all for playing games, but there comes a point in time where you should at least be looking for a job and a partner of your sexual preference rather than sitting in your parents' basement drinking Bawls and popping your zits.

Because when you have an ally who is annoying as hell it helps to be able to kill them yourself. SLIPPY!
