Assigned Enemies
I can't be the only one experiencing this, but I'm convinced every Battlefield game assigns four players at least to multi-kill you throughout the round. In every single match, out of 32 or 64 enemie...
I kill the same people over and over in my matches - Especially if someone tries tbagging for no reason, I will go back to the scene of the crime in hopes of exacting my revenge.
It's quite rare to see people play outside of their normal style - Once a camper, always a camper, and if I see the same guy hiding in corner, I know to check all the ones I run by and will start hunting their known "territory", that sort of thing.
If you want to rid yourself of a nemesis, you just need to cut your losses and choose the path less travelled... Unless you have a cool dogtag, in which I will harass you until you leave the server.
@TTZ_Dipsy Problem is its not just people camping. They follow me from flag to flag. Yesterday I had a highly suspect enemy jet pilot (firing at extreme angles and having missiles coming back on me, plus that ultra tight turning they do that no amount of speed control will achieve), where I ultimately had to bail out. Today, that same player was back, this time in a Wildcat. No matter where I went on a flag, they were constantly firing at me, and frequently ignoring other players right in front of them. Only when I finally get shot by them do my team actually have a go at destroying them. This happens in other rounds where enemies have friendly players literally right in front of them, but they completely ignore them to shoot at me way in the back, and of course are never killed and if they are, its always after I'm dead.
Been playing BF for many years now and getting the feeling of being 'unfairly killed' by the same player over and over will happen sometimes, just by coincidence.
Like running in squad and being the only one being killed by a level 5 player, who has 2 kills and 25 deaths.
BF is a mix of randomness and predictable behaviour by players (as others have stated), there are no conspiracy against you.
I got killed 5 time by a rank 18 in that match. Grappled up to the top of the Stranded ship where exactly one enemy was. Normally, I'd probably get shot by that player. This time they turned to run. Suddenly, there's a rank 18 who spawned on them after they took fire. Instantly kills me. Respawn, go back up. Instantly killed by the same player again who has moved slightly. Go up a different way. Shoot them. Shoot their teammate. They then respawn with no discernible method. Get shot again. Go up, clear them for a second time. They inexplicably respawn yet again, no squad, no beacon. Instantly killed by this player once more after the other two die. Go up again, kill them for a fourth time. Grapple to the top, they respawn there again without squad or beacon. Shoot them again, 5 to me, 4 to them. Then they spawn as a sniper. Shoot a rocket at them, clearly hit them. No kill. Stand and move, clearly not in the same spot they were aiming at, head instantly blown off. Shoot them one more time with virtually a full 416 mag. They tank all of that damage and then I don't even get an assist kill on them. 5-5 to a rank 18. One who continually respawned without a beacon or squad at times.
@cso7777 Its not exactly 'sometimes' though. Its every single time. This has occurred since the BF3 days. Every match, every mode, every game. 3-4 players will kill you more easily, and be harder to kill, than anyone else.
So after several minutes following that match, I finally get into another game. Its completely full, close to ending. Get into a firefight, kill a few people. Get attacked by an MAV so I moved to a different spot. Go to move and I am instantly hit by a rocket from about a third of the map away. Guess who it is? The same exact rank 18 from the last match. I'm revived, but that was the only near death I had and its the EXACT same player again. Seriously, this is beyond a joke. Also, love how their rocket kills me quite nicely but mine didn't, go figure.
