The Problem:
Roof camping is, at the moment, one of the things that is ruining users experience on Dust. It actually makes battles boring and frustrating for everyone.
9/10 of the matches are full of roofcampers. One team roof camps and the other defend the letter from the ground: no one has fun.
Why is roof camping so difficult to counter?
- Roof in Dust are flat, it is easy for roof caers to hide from shooters on the ground.
- Roof are reachable only with Dropships.
- Roof campers spam uplinks so they can keep camping.
Possible fix to the problem:
Uplinks cant be placed on roofs. This is so simple.
Sign up if you hate what roof camping is doing to our matches. Sign up if you want a better Dust.

I always wondered why the hell people don't just fly up and clear the roof it's simple.
It is not that simple.
There are two different dropships:
ADS: they require million of SP. You cant ask everyone to skill into them.
Mlt dropship: they are free for all, so they might look like a good option. Even if the roof is full of swarmers and forgers it is not impossible to land on it before they kill you.
But then?
You will find yourself on a roof, with 5 friends (the maximum you can bring with you) or more likely 3 friends because of sqad capacity, against all the campers on the roof. Also everyone there knows you just landed so is ready to fight and to respawn again and fight again.
Landing on a roof to clean it from campers is usually a suicide attempt that doesnt obtain any result 9/10.
Also We are not talking about how people should counter it or how good and smart I am. We are talking about a thing that is clearly a problem forDust gameplay, and I cant understand how you cannot agree with that.
Does anyone actually like roof camping?

E.G After 10/20/ whatever meters up - uplinks disappear if deployed?
Yes. The idea of the topic is not new at all, the problem is old as Dust. King Babar had the idea more than a year ago.
Actually, we are not talking about how you should deal with roofcampers. We are talking about improving the gameplay for everyone, when people dont roofcamp matcher are like 10x funnier. I think we can all agree here.

I dnot know. I think you should be allowed to stay om the roof if you got there with a dropship. Not allowing you to put uplinks already fixes the problem but still allows you to use that tactic.
