Thread: Confirming enemies

Some people don't know about confirming enemies...... While walking over a dead and/or incap enemy make sure to confirm them by looking at them and hitting spacebar when promted to...... but more importantly, give the common courtesy of letting the team mate that shot the enemy to confirm.

I would blast two in a row and someone would come around the corner and confirm MY targets! That shit earns me points that i respectfully earned.

sometimes what you say is not possible, Don't fret too much about confirming enemies, sure you neutralized them and someone else took some points, but it's a team game and sometimes waiting for you to confirm an enemy could allow him to be healed, there are times and places to debate this, but I don't think I would be too bothered by people confirming my kills, all too often I incap someone from all the way across the map (i usualy play long range support with the m16/m320 with either iron sights (if i plan to stay at medium to long range, or the red dot if i plan to move to the medium-close range) and then it is a boon if a teammate confirms them, it's all in the situation

i believe the argument that investigater was trying to make was that you don't get the ldrship points for a neutralizied enemy when a teammate secures/confirms, that is technically a self serving attitude ( again situational, sometimes its just the best choice for you as a player to do to prevent for revives) The problem I see is people point whoring for this at the expense of the team (not something we want to encourage) Let me remind all of you, that a downed(incapped) enemy is a perfect bait for your enemies, is that immoral and evil by todays military standards...of course it is, but I strongly approve of it as a tactic to incap another player, serves them right for not playing smart and covering the teammate doing the medical work.
