Friendly fire causes a lot of annoyance and barely brings any extra enjoyment to games in my opinion. Certainly not in Killing Floor.
It'd be good in a game with just friends, where you have to be careful and your fellow players actually care about you
Sounds like it would just be annoying and result in more death by player than zed
Like sometimes I just shoot through players to hit things I can't see yet
the crossbow is single-handedly the greatest weapon in the game
scrake? bang, 1 headshot, dead
fleshpounds? bang, 2 headshots, dead
anything else? bang bang bang bang bang
tl;dr it's okay

It's very good to team up with a commando if using crossbow. But it really is such a good and relatively cheap weapon.

until you're in suicidal. Then scrakes and fleshpounds take one extra bolt.
The best set-up in my opinion is Berserker with Axe, Katana and Flare Pistol. Then Medic with Crossbows for Patriarch.
speaking of friendly fire
this one time i joined in a round of biotics lab
went support, because ive got shotgun
it wasnt until i blew some guys head to smithereens when i tried to save him from a gorefast when we discovered friendly fire was on
i felt a little bad afterwards and apoligized with some extra dosh for him and then i went medic
everyone started to use grenades very sparingly and cautiously for the rest of the game
[QUOTE=Flyingman356;40354294]does killing floor have a friendly fire function? Maybe that'd be good
it'd solve the "asshole welding the door shut to kill you" issue[/QUOTE]
There's a HoE server with the FF damage set to just 30%, even that is a pain in the ass. (PvP damage if turned on deals the same damage across all the difficulties)
It's just far too easy to accidentally clip a teammate with anything at any time, and if you throw a phantom grenade that drops at your feet then it's game over.
Not having friendly fire is the best in team-based games, because then you can run around a teammate and slash at him with your knife with no worry.
I don't know. i can see the benefit of putting friendly fire into a game such as this. But to fit the game would need some extra additions to make it scarier and less arcadey. Horror survival rather killing floor. Think red orchestra with specimens.
but i'm fine with Kf as it is.
(it'd be seriously fucking cool if they made crawlers able to walk on walls though. They'd be like the xenomorphs)
Fuck no. Crawlers are already a big enough pain in the ass.

Except xenomoprhs aren't as godawfully annoying.

They should also fire berserker seeking missiles that ignore armour

So what you're saying is that Sirens should fly?
[QUOTE='[Green];40360251']So what you're saying is that Sirens should fly?[/QUOTE]
They already do if you hit them just right with a grenade. I've killed my entire squad like that before.
YES!

My second lvl 6 perk

Reached finally LV6 with the Firebug (pro tip: Stick with the flamethrower on close maps like Biotics, use the trenchgun outside).
On Wyre, we had a bug with the Patriarch. Everyone was using their AA12, and then the camera sequence hapenned showing the Patriarch being gibbed, but then, it suddenly became normal and made their melee attack, killing all of us.
Hand Cannon+Crossbow is the only way to go. (For Sharpy.)
Am I the only player here that thinks The Stig from Top Gear should be added as the next DLC Premium Character?

Not only him, but I think there should be more characters representing British people which are quite well known. I know my friend would absolutely love a Doctor Who equivalent in the game.
god yes, we need Jeremy Clarkson smashing zed heads off with an axe

[QUOTE=XxNemisis116xX;40354408]But then firebug would just slaughter everybody on the team as soon as they can afford the flamethrower[/QUOTE]
I'd probably burn my entire team to death just by looking in a general direction
I don't get why crawlers are such a pain, I have them constantly pouncing on me with that 'ripping' sound but I don't get hurt. Was trying to play full games as one of each class to see how I enjoy them, don't think I was ever harmed by a crawler. Is it once they've stopped moving and started biting you that deals damage? Should be more than easy to hit at that point.

Also I think Killing Floor could use Sting (lead singer of The Police.)
its all about the beefeater bearskin.

Is there an official FP KF server?
Most of us just kinda drift around to whatever servers, I think.
Speaking of that, are there are good servers with extra perks and/or new zeds that I could get a decent ping from the Eastern US - specifically Georgia? I've got one in my favorites list, but I'm pretty sure they have like every custom zed mutation and their perks have some kinda uninspired stats. Plus the difficulty goes from difficult to 'fuck you' when you get more than one person in the server.

Also I find The Clash and other British 80's Punk Rock to fit Killing Floor quite well.
