I've been meaning to post something about this for awhile now. The smart deploy a.i. must have brain damage or some form of mental retardation since it just decided to deploy me into the middle of an enemy orbital that was striking before i decided to use smart deploy. I mean, who would do something so blatently stupid as to intentionally place their deploying soldiers into an incoming strike? Could we perhaps get some individual preferences for the "smart deploy". I personally would like to be placed 100 meters from the nearest enemy unit. I'm tired of being caught in a building completely surrounded by enemies, taking fire from tanks, being grenade spammed, with nowhere to go. You die, thinking, " finally, i'm out of that mess," but oh no, you're thrown right back into the grinder to play the fish in the barrel once again. It seems the only way out of this is to stop spawning, hope the rest of your team does the same, and pray the a.i. doesn't do it to you again. Also, what's up with enemy teams spawning on top of buildings in ambush? It's was at the start of my first match today. 20 seconds in and i'm taking fire from a roof that is only accessible with a dropship, and not just 1 or 2 guys, but the entire team spawned there. Wtf is going with that? |

I've been playing since May and have 20 mil hard earned sp. I know to look for links but for some reason there is usually some "smart" guy who throws down a link as soon as he is first deployed. I wish they would wait for first contact before deploying their links, or run in the opposite direction as the main body of friendlies, since it seems to be that both teams are usually deployed 50 meters apart now.
I'm a dedicated heavy and have been for quite some time now. They don't let me carry equiptment because i would be way too dangerous. I'm already the scourge of of any vehicle on the battlefield and have other suits for dealing with any situation that requires killing.
the problem i speak of arises when the team is pinned, completely surrounded, with no way out. The server knows exactly where everyone is and even if though my side doesn't know where all the enemy players are (whetever happened to infrared spy satellite camers? Guns, suits, and vehicles generate heat.) i'm requesting that we as players get some parameters to control our smart deploy. No intelligent being would continue to dump their troops in the same place just to be slaughtered. Once your team loses x amount of. clones within x meter radius under x amount of time, "smart" deploy should look for a new place for deployment away from that kill zone. I think x amounts should be 10% of starting clone count, within 10 meters of eachother, in less than 10 seconds.
Another alternative, since ambush is the only game mode with smart deploy, why not give us some preset locations to deploy to after our initial deployment. As our team gathers visual intel of where the enemy team is located, the battle computer developes 2 or 3 alternate locations for smart deployments that you could chose from, or have one randomly imposed on you.
