Turns out this asshole has a cheat that puts him on both teams and he interchanges when it is to his advantage.
I had this guy do it in COD4 or MW2 when I was really into it too (forgot which).

He'd join your team so you don't notice him as hostile on your radar. He'll get behind a few people and unpin his grenade. He then switches teams, and that grenade's kills count towards his kill points.

After that, I think I just hid somewhere and sniped his ass.

I never did understand cheaters neither. There's no thrill or sense of accomplishment unless you're good, not your hacks.

The only things I could come up with is so that you can:

a) brag and have people worship you as the MVP and bask in unearned glory, and/or
b) be able to cheaply shit over other people who are trying to develop actual skill so you can laugh in their face at how futile their efforts really were.
