So instead of trying to help you out of a spawn camp situation my post came across as me defending spawn camping? Hmmm. That's strange and unintended.

First off I hate people who say go back to cod. I've been playing dust for over two years, you go back to cod noob. Your OP was garbage, you didn't put forth any constructive arguments, just accused random corps of spawn camping, and suggested a completely unrealistic solution. Great let people who just spawned damage everyone else and be invincible. Cleary you've never played this game in a truly compettitive atmosphere. Let me give you a hint... Heavies.

So I'll tell you again. You spawn where you choose to and if it's being camped, you die. If you die, you lose. If you lose, I win. Therefore it's a legitimate tactic. I hope to camp your spawn soon scrub. Now be good and let this thread die, adults are talking.

^ I stopped reading when you said FW, sorry.

LOL, Ahkhomi, just shrug it off. Your post was clearly understood by me as good Dust-combat advice, not as defending spawning. ButGǪ "a good dead never goes unpunished"GǪ

I just listened to Rattati express a point of view that I like and agree with. All fps games at their core have an "expectancy" that you will be killed regularly, that the risk is always there no matter what your gun-unlock level.
Dust is simply a more brutal level of that expectancy, where you're regularity of deaths is simply much higher than other fps titles treat their players.

Yes, spawning is a strategy and staple in nearly any fps (other fps games even encounter a rudimentary form of Redlining). But I would also give Dust credit, by suggesting that the problem you're describing has ALREADY been "fixed" as far as a merciless game liked Dust will ever go: Dust has MINIMIZED it.

It (and Redlining) hasn't gone away, and maybe shouldn't go completely. If you don't want to alienate classic fps players completely, you need to allow them some access to the habits and strategies they've grown up with.

The reason I suggest it has been minimized is because, as Ahkhomi hinted, camping is now only a consequence of OUR team's mistakes. When we don't do those things that help avoid picking an uplink that shows signs of being overrun, and when we have an uplink carrier who isn't quite compitent enough to place in ways/times that hardly get camped,GǪ our team has caused the camping. And in Dust, well,GǪ it's what we kind of deserve.

And in Dust, we can't expect a lot of help correcting catastrophes that WE cause during the fight.
I kind of make the same argument for Redlining in this game.
I may be a rubbish-poor gunslinger in this game (Zero point three four KDR), but I don't get redlined anymore, and I seldom step into an uplink-camp. Sometimes, but happily few.

LOL. Yeah we only fight for minmatar. Actually the Corp was made to fight the Amarr.

Oh, my bad. It appears as though I've goofed. Apologies where appropriate. But for real though if you know something is getting camped don't spawn there. That redline MCC walk of shame sucks but sometimes you just gotta do it. meh. Dust life.

With that spawn immunity thing tho. That can be a double edged sword. What if somebody is trying to hack a letter/cru and a sentinel spawns in. Would it be fair for the sentinel to have immunity in that situation?

I do like how a lot of these replies are telling me to either drop my own uplinks or "not spawn there"

I'll say it again, I spawn at the MCC when these camps happen. It's the haul back that irritates me. Because of base, noob tactics, I'm now the frikkin marathon man. Least I can guarantee my raider missions will be done

Oh and bring your own uplinks since newbies can not figure out how to use them. Sorry I had to do it.
