It did a bit to begin with, but I realised I'm just as likely to have done it myself at times, not intentionally but then usually others don't either.

Particularly when things are getting intense, you just need to clear out those enemies as quickly as possible, and there's no time to sit on ceremony when all hell is breaking loose.

Having the assists recognised is good makes things better. If I'm not going all that well in terms of kills, I can at least get some reward for helping out.

And the XP all ends up the same anyway, is that right?

It's a bit annoying at times, especially when I'm trying to set up biotic explosions/tech bursts, but on the whole I just shrug and look for another target.

I don't really believe you can "killsteal" in a cooperative team based game. If it was like a deathmatch where it's every (wo)man for their-selves, then yeah, you can steal kills.

Not at all. The more kills that I or any of my teammates get, the less enemies on the field.

look like people complain more of Infiltrators and Vanguards. What Infiltrators and Vanguards can do if they are killing machines? Do you expect them to just sit there and wait for you to make your kills, so they just come in action when you need someone to save your ass?

Play the game properly (ie. as a team) and you'll end up killstealing as much as much as you get kills stolen. It just comes with the territory of a team-based game.

The only time it really bothers me is if I'm playing my Adept or Sentinel. It's annoying when I set up a Biotic Explosion to clear a group, only to have a teammate kill my target and ruin the combo, leaving the other enemies intact. Otherwise, I don't care.

Personally, I think having a scoreboard is a bad idea. It just breeds this kind of mentality and keeps people from properly completing objectives because they want to inflate their score.

Biotic explosions are just too cool.

I've had a lot of considerate team mates that focus on other enemies. These guys know how the adept works and they won't rain on my parade. If they aren't so considerate, well I'm not that bothered. They just have to go without seeing my awesome biotic explosions! Woo!

I'm not that bothered if it's accidental or it's just they were clearing the enemies or helping me out. However, it really does my head in when people on purposly hang around you whilst you're killing something and then stand in front of you to stop you killing the enemy so they can kill it and get the xp. It's so obvious what they're doing and it's rude. I would never do it to another, not on purposly anyway so i don't expect it done to me.

It honestly doesn't bother me all that much... Unless it's a Vanguard spamming charge and nova. They give Vanguards everywhere a bad name.

Regardless, it doesn't get to me because it happens to everyone and everyone does it. The multiplayer is just so fast paced that I can't honestly make those kind of decisions to stop firing, for example, at an enemy that someone else has also started shooting at. It just happens. Best rounds always consist of people who, you can clearly tell, just don't care about that crap. We're all interested in getting an extraction.

Don't really get upset with ''killstealing''. Only thing that really annoys me is if I'm playing adept and someone keeps using energy drain or overload on the stuff I warp. Asari adept with 3 salarians = frustration.

This frustrates me too but I still don't get mad or anything
because I know I would do the same if I were playing engineer as I am sure I
have...  As for killstealing I think it is somewhat silly to get upset about that since all exp/credits are shared and I am not going to sit there and watch you shoot an enemy over and over without helping.

Yeah it does =l
But it comes with being stuck with ignore f*cks who only want points in the match or the Vanguards, I have met one decent Vanguard, that is it...

first of all this isn't CoD so theres no K/D ratio to boost ego's. kill or steal it happens to everyone, can be you stealing or being stolen. since kills wont show up what matters is you get xp and you move along to the next wave.

its co-op so deal with it or go play CoD !

I'm usually happy when things die. Beats sitting in cover and getting overwhelmed. Maybe it's more prevalent in bronze, when it is more about killing as fast as possible. But in gold, when 2 banshees and 3 brute charges at me, I'm pretty cool with people trying to kill them. Actually I prefer them to try to help me rather than run and hide like chickens.. which sadly happens alot.

Considering how easy it is to level in Multiplayer, I really don't care about XP at all. It's a team game. Act like a team, and you get out alive. You can't expect a Vanguard or Melee Krogan to hold back, then their roles just become useless.

Kill stealing only annoys me when it's player versus player. Team game it's everyone helps each other to get the kills. So what if you wind up getting the least points. Being an effective team member isn't about getting the highest scores.

High scores are less likely when you play adept. They're more likely when you play as vanguard, but then as a vanguard you get killed quickly and team mates try to revive you only to get killed shortly afterwards. So much for getting a high score.

No. KILL EVERYTHING AS FAST AS POSSIBLE. The end match stats are just gravy. The team win is all that matters.

I play competitively, if I'm there for a minute smashing a banshee by myself and get her to one block or armor and someone comes along and finishes it, yeah I'll get the ****s. If there wasn't some sort of competitive component in the multiplayer, why would they have individual scores? Of course people want to see their name at the top of the team sheet after the extraction.
