While we do not normally allow people to RP as a terrorist, in this particular case there is an exception due to it being an event… about terrorists.
In the event thread, where IC information for the terrorists is mentioned, the host wrote this “Keeping the promise of negotiation? Or kill everyone? Die heroicly? Or suicide? Your pick…” – the event’s host has clearly allowed the terrorists complete freedom to choose to “kill everyone”, which normally on live server would be mass RDM, but this is an event.
Now, back to the subject of the person being a terrorist, the reason we don’t allow them on live is because terrorists do things “without a good RP reason”. These people just took a whole plane hostage and are in the middle of a shootout with SWAT – and they are terrorists, which would naturally make their required RP reasoning significantly less strict. That said, and in the context of the event and the firefight going on, I’d say it is entirely reasonable for him to shoot someone in a vest and helmet. Let me also note that the “victim” could easily have had a sidearm on him which would not be visible, either in the gamemode or ICly given the angle the terrorist was looking at him.
Finally, in regards to the “metagaming” report, it was not the use of OOC information for IC benefit, but rather an attempt to use OOC information to avoid RDMing someone – which in the context we would not consider as a rule violation, or one worth issuing a punishment over.
