Hold your fire! Friendlies coming thr-, oh you shot at them already, good job idiot

I was playing Call of Duty 2 last night, one of the early British levels. Rommel's troops were attempting to take a town that me and my buddies were holding, and would do so in massive waves from any given direction - look over, see twenty to thirty Nazis running towards you - it's intense. I take cover behind a building, then whip around with my rifle and take a shot at them - right into a teammate's back. That increased the intensity in a way, even. Were FF not on, and the man just stood there and took the shot as if it were nothing, it would have cheapened the moment beyond belief.

While FF is frustrating sometimes in Multiplayer, and some people are rampant TKing asshats, most people respect the rules and FF simply becomes an added hazard that you work to make sure you don't do. Most accidental TKers aren't kicked by vitriolic vengeance-seekers, either - I've had enough experience with that in tight-quarters CTF in Battlefront 2. You're forced to be a better, or at least more thoughtful and attentive, player. Trigger-happy playing has its benefits, but most gamers should move beyond that and add some brains to their gaming.

Not to call trigger-happy gamers brainless, of course.

Jam it back in, in the dark.

^^ I hate it when someone plays that way online. That's one of things, in fact, that kills the experience for me - people who run around killing their teammates simply because they can. It's selfish to have fun like that at, the expense of every single other player.

There's nowhere I can't reach.
