How do betrayals work in halo reach

But damn, it is always awesome to betray someone, then bait them into killing you enough times that you can boot them.

Or its even more hilarious when someone does it on accident, it happens, but you boot them anyway without hesitation. Laugh your ass off. Speaking as someone who's accidentally shot teammates many a time when it's late at night and I don't quite distinguish red and blue so well when something jumps out at me and I have a rocket launcher, this is a terrible goddamn idea. Accidental betrayals do exist, you know.

I really don't like this idea. It creates conflict between a team of people when you should be working together and what's more if there is someone in the game who is really determined to be a jackass it won't matter how many times you come bearing down on them with a spartan laser, they'll still betray you again. This mechanic also carries the problem that for up to 30 seconds of the game one member of the team is going to be preoccupied hunting down their betrayer instead of contributing towards their team, while the other player may be preoccupied simply trying to avoid 'revenge' when they may have been contributing towards their team.

This presents an even bigger problem if you consider that accidental betrayals do occasionally happen and can't be helped, but if this system were implemented accidental betrayals would be treated exactly the same as deliberate ones.

Also there's not really anything here to stop you using your weapons to menace the opposing team, even if the rocket launcher you've spawned with can only hurt your betrayer the opposing team don't know that and you could easily abuse the weapon to scatter the opposing team even if there's no real threat.

I think it has something to do with the proximity of enemies, but I'm not sure. For instance, if I "accidentally" rocket someone at our base in BTB, they can always boot me, however if I do it near the enemies base even if there are no enemies shooting as us I usually don't get booted.
