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.

Sooo would you prefer firing in rank in open fields revolutionary war style?
I always wondered why the hell people don't just fly up and clear the roof it's simple. Everyone has acces to milita drops ships but never use them... When a couple people on a roof are holding a whole team back it makes me laugh and think these guys are pathetic.
Multiple levels keep the game from being a meat grinder on every map... Imagine if every socket was the rabbit hole map
It would be boring and repetitive and the only suitable fits would be logis, heavy's, mass drivers, and re fits. |

The talk about removing CRU's and roof tops have started .
Don't like to get CRU camped then don't spawn at the one that's being camped , don't like " rooftop camping " then I would do what you suggested and get a DS and handle it , I play solo and I do it so I'm sure anyone can .
All this whining is making me sick , there should be a petition to remove these lazy ass players that are trying to make this game into COD and the strange part about it is , most of these same run in well known corps and in squads .

A couple things, off the top of my amazing Minotaur head:
Militia drop ships are basically coffins. Dropships are implemented terribly. Flying controls are sub-par. Roof campers often have Forge Guns. Some have swarms. Those weapons touch dropships inappropriately like Poseidon did to my mum. Sometimes half the team or more is on the roof. With mass drivers doing explosive spam.
But hey, I hear you. Assaulting a rooftop and dislodging the campers is simple business. Especially if you ignore a multitude of factors, because those are kinda messy.
(and none of that even touches upon the issues of matchmaking, team coordination, and the general turd-iness of DUST that are contributing factors)
Anyway, roof camping would be less annoying if maps were actually designed with vertical gameplay in mind (Hint hint, CCP). Because redesigning maps will never happen, ever ever ever (not even in a billion years), I say "fck it" and let things be. Campers are easy enough to forge gun off high places, anyway. Blapping people is fun.

I haven't played dust in about a week... Actually picked up black ops 3.
Maps are tiny, barely bigger than a small socket. TTK is about like your running an scout with nothing in your slots and everyone is running a combat rifle. Cautious movement is pointless since you're much better rewarded for going 25-15 than you would for going 15-0.
I also run solo mostly in dust. Anyone dumb enuf to be cru camped more than once per round deserves it, and if a squad can't handle some roof campers they are more than pathetic.
My personal feeling is dust will never be fair/balanced and everyone under 50 million sp seems to want everyone to be limited to basic or milita. Dusts biggest problems are its ancient platform ( ps4 is two years old for christ's sake ) and its tiny playerbase ( might have somthing to do with zero advertising ).

Milita ds is actually quit appropriate in most situations... Add even one milita hardener to a gorgon and ill get on any roof with less than two decent forgers on it... Might even squish a few on the landing ( my personal road kill record was 4 in about 2 seconds coming in sideways ).

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?

I believe we have multiple things in the game designed for this issue.
1.flux nades 2.mass drivers 3.drop ships 4.orbital strikes of the flux and laser variety. 5.sniper rifles
Ha!You can't kill me! I'm already dead!

It is that simple... When I do it solo I'm effective at least 50% of the time so a squad should be able to do it without any problem.
It's only a problem for people who want no variety in tactics. High ground has been a basic fighting strategy for thousands of years.
You can't win camping from the roof.
It would be simple to just remove drop ships... No more camping right? Next remove tanks and jeeps. Next remove everything but basic gear. Now we have c.o.d. with 1% of the playerbase and more glitches. Enjoy. |

I really don't see the problem here.
Firstly, rooftop camping rarely actually wins games as objectives aren't on roofs.
Secondly there are plenty of counters available in game.
Militia dropships are perfectly capable of landing on roofs filled with forge gunners and swarm launchers. The dropship doesn't have to survive, it just has to get you on the roof. Ok, so you will struggle solo against lots of enemies. In theory you should have multiple people flying to take out the campers. There's no real excuse not to.
Higher SP solo players can clear roofs with an assault dropship. Even if you can't kill everyone, you can harass them pretty well with an ADS.
Solo players can also use sniper rifles very effectively against roof tops. Now, I think sniper rifles should be buffed, but even as they are they are more than capable of clearing roof campers.
More organised players can use missile turrets from dropships. Or orbital strikes / flux strikes. Or just dropship a squad onto the roof. A few flux grenades and an HMG does a pretty good job.
It's very rare that I play a match and think "damn, we can't win because they are camping the roof and we can't get them down". |

Yeah its pretty ******* lame, particularly when you compare the experience of fighting against roof campers to the experience of a good active ground game which is really fun in dust.
The saddest thing is you can see blueberries shutting down and giving up alot of these roof camping games, nobody enjoys it, its not fun on the roof and its boring as **** on the ground. I just dont know why anyone does it, especially these assholes who bring in a dropship and start off the match every time with going straight to the roof. I mean I can understand it in PC where the win actually matters, but in pubs for fun, why? |

This would not be a problem if all weapons had good range and power.
It's just who has the best spot to camp in order to win. Before the AR, LR, CR got nerfed i remember killing people off the mushroom in biomass. Palatinate, one of the best rail rifle users that loved to camp the mushroom to defend the acid pits and the playstation building objective. Me not having the RR at the time... but i had a CR, it was good enough to bother him from the ground in order for my team mates to hack. It was good times, weapons did what weapons were suppose to do. If that scenario was in today's weapon meta, i would be sh*t out of luck because the only way to compete to his rail rifle is if i had a rail rifle too, otherwise he would outgun me and be able to camp there the whole game unless i go up close and personal wasting unnecessary resources and to me that is just an inconvenience and bullsh*t. It's not even fun to play. But hey yall gotta deal with the eve lore.

What do I do when I have a bunch of cowardly pieces of **** on my team who choose to camp on top of roofs instead of actually playing the objective? What would motivate people like you to get the **** off of the roof and to actually try to accomplish something?

Just little offtop
I thougt it was Creatan Bull.
Because from mythology what i know it was Zeus who changed himself to white bull and ride with Europa to Crete. Where she gave birth Minos, Sarpedon and Rhadamanthys.
Minos became king in Crete, Sarphedon in Lykia and Rhadamathys something in Hades world.
BUT
Minos needed to show how he is accepted by gods he wanted to sacrifice bull. He pray to Poseidon for beautifull bull nad he gave him that bul, beautifull white one. But Minos was really astonished by the animal look and he sacrificed diffeent one what made Poseidon angry. That day Pasifae the wife of Minos became in love with bull and after some time she gave birth to you.
That is story what i know.
BTW Pasifae was after the birth sewed in to the cows skin and left to furious bull to tear apart.

Two it's not my job to play how your ***** ass tells me to, if anyone could make people play they way they decided then snipers would not exist since 90% of them are about as beneficial as fake boobs on an 90 year old and most of them hide so far in the redline the only thing that can hit them is a forge gun or another sniper.
Force everyone to stop running free/milita/basic suits or ******* apex and running at the objective like blind lemmings while your at it.
I would rather my teammates at least flew in and got on a roof near the fight then hide like little fags in the redline or leave battle since their trapped with nowhere but the redline to spawn and don't have the mental ability to find a way back in.
And for your solution, if you want them off the roof get a ds and push them off. Any drooling ****** should be able to do it... You may have some trouble.

Two weapons that never keep me from clearing a roof. No fit made for area denial (swarm/forge/rail/mass driver) last long against even a basic sentinel with a hmg who just wants up there to kill you.

So you're telling me you don't have a solution?
The reason I came at you about being a rooftop camper is because people like you react to someone complaining about something as if they are getting their *** whipped by the strategy they are complaining about. You need to realize that a lot of people complain about certain strategies because those strategies **** over the people on their team.
People like you play it safe in matches and ride the coattails of others to claim your victory, but then when you lose a match half the time you complain about the stupid blueberries that were on your team. |

90% of matches I play the first hack of the objective is from me, all those proto links also from me.
And if I can hold back a whole team solo on a high point that I can be sniped/forged/railed/Plc'd off of in a single shot then it's no skill fairy's like you who cost the loss by not doing it.
I never play it safe, but I'm also not a apex/basic wearing blind lemming who rushes at the objective like my actual life depends on it. Mostly because I have **** players with garbage cheap fits on my team, and I'm not going to rush a squad solo, I'm not going to hand them a kill and stroke their epeen ( I'll leave that to you )
I'm in the top 200 all time WP you don't do that on coattail's ( btw its almost twice yours )
And if you're team is up on a roof firing down on enemy's and your squad can't move up without them then your squad sucks and is just plain out skilled suck it up you lost.

Multiple levels keep the game from being a meat grinder on every map... Imagine if every socket was the rabbit hole map
It would be boring and repetitive and the only suitable fits would be logis, heavy's, mass drivers, and re fits. I have a scenario for you maybe you can help me solve. What do I do when I have a bunch of cowardly pieces of **** on my team who choose to camp on top of roofs instead of actually playing the objective? What would motivate people like you to get the **** off of the roof and to actually try to accomplish something? One **** you for calling me cowardly and assuming all I must do is camp roofs. Two it's not my job to play how your ***** ass tells me to, if anyone could make people play they way they decided then snipers would not exist since 90% of them are about as beneficial as fake boobs on an 90 year old and most of them hide so far in the redline the only thing that can hit them is a forge gun or another sniper. Force everyone to stop running free/milita/basic suits or ******* apex and running at the objective like blind lemmings while your at it. I would rather my teammates at least flew in and got on a roof near the fight then hide like little retards in the redline or leave battle since their trapped with nowhere but the redline to spawn and don't have the mental ability to find a way back in. And for your solution, if you want them off the roof get a ds and push them off. Any drooling ****** should be able to do it... You may have some trouble. So you're telling me you don't have a solution? The reason I came at you about being a rooftop camper is because people like you react to someone complaining about something as if they are getting their *** whipped by the strategy they are complaining about. You need to realize that a lot of people complain about certain strategies because those strategies **** over the people on their team. People like you play it safe in matches and ride the coattails of others to claim your victory, but then when you lose a match half the time you complain about the stupid blueberries that were on your team. I gave you a solution push them off ( you must be blind as well as a moron ) 90% of matches I play the first hack of the objective is from me, all those proto links also from me. And if I can hold back a whole team solo on a high point that I can be sniped/forged/railed/Plc'd off of in a single shot then it's no skill fairy's like you who cost the loss by not doing it.

Push them off with a dropship? I read what you typed the first time but I dismissed it because with how idiotic that suggestion is I didn't think you were actually being serious.
If you want to compare all time WPs then you might want to mention how long you have been playing this game compared to me. |

Half the time the link on the roof is the only one within 200m of the objective and it won't be getting camped. Don't like it, to fuckin bad go play call of duty theirs no roofs there. Perfect for apex losers. |

I've been bleating about this for ever, at the very least they can make it so these things disappear when placed above a certain elevation (from either ground level or the objective, whichever is lower), or put that super annoying goop that slowly damages you all over the 'trouble spots' - you know because CCP play this game all the time and are aware of these spots...
You're 100% right - on some maps it seems like the only way to guarantee victory is to be a rooftop camping *****, and this simply shouldn't be the case - there should be no - guaranteed win tactics - it should be who fights hardest!
Just look at PC/Factional - this is where this type of behaviour is bred - try hard gimps in douchebag corps perpetuating this sort of filth simply because it gets them the 'win'.. what's the point of a victory when there is no opposition!? |

- Roof are reachable only with Dropships.

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.

Ok yes I believe that is what I am thinking about.
For sure battles can be much better without the rooftop camping but honestly even putting rooftop camping aside I find the best games are the even or closely fought ones.
It doesnt matter so much to me who is doing what and where so long as there is fairly equal and opposite reactions in the game. If one squad of enemies camps and another attacks, this can still bring good gameplay as long as on my team there is one squad that attacks/defends and one squad goes after roof campers or tries to counter in some way.
I think what you are getting at is when everyone is on the same level fighting there is much more that can be done by lower sp players to combat the enemy. Thus the battle has more deaths everywhere on both sides and that is what makes a good game. |

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.

Also, for those saying "just fly a dropship so my buddies and i can swarm you to death long before you reach us, and milk more warpoints", F*ck you!
Dropships, especially for new flyers, are coffins! The controls are difficult even on default, and the price for a new player is pretty high just to watch it go up in smoke repeatedly. You and 6 others are up there with proto AV and weapons with healing hives and ammo, but you advocate he flies up there in militia? Yeah that's fair?!
Hit detection in this game is out right comical, but i'm supposed to have the patience to start sniping lol! Forge guns are effective, but scouts will kill you from behind. I could go back to tank sniping with railgun, but then AVers cry about redline tankers.
CCP needs to change?update the dropship controls to make flying the coroner ship a little more viable for newer players. I gun for one of the best pilots in the game quite often, and even he has a hard time controlling dropships. For new players getting off the ground is difficult, and most pilots can testify to having to dedicate hours, if not weeks, to practicing without being hit.
Swarms are hold R1.....
So can we agree that for a new player clearing the roof isn't as simple. Even for a vet we gotta be on comms to do it. Solo players can't do it without an ADS(Assault dropship) which cost tons more than your MD and Swarm combo. Thank god the minmando no longer has swarm bonus, but that doesn't stop him from equipping them all the same.
The fact of the problem is this is more a dom issue than anything else really, and in my opinion to many of you play dom to camp kills all day.
So Signed also for the petition against dom that is sure to come soon. This roof camping primarily goes on in domination! Some kind of way you've all been trick into getting mass drivered, sniped, and laser rifled in dom all day lol! Play skirm! He can camped C all day, but will lose if he doesn't take another point. In dom there's slim chance of any pilot surviving that barrage of AV coming at him from half the team.
It's a full proof plan with few counters to take a 4 man squad into dom with roof camping commandos and camp open ground with MD's and AV. The nerve of some of you to suggest guys waste isk flying their heads into a wall is absurd.Not to mention as pilot and gunner you can't see the ground/roof troops until you've already been swarmed, forged, railgunned, and scanned lol! There's a serious rendering issue that has existed since Rhadamanthus played, and CCP has yet to fix it.
While I advocate squading up and working together, I also understand that squading isn't always feasible for everyone. We must be fair to solo players, and encourage squading to them as well.
I must say though that I have to agree that roof camping in dom has gotten to be an epidemic, almost as aggrevating as modded controllers.

It's just who has the best spot to camp in order to win. Before the AR, LR, CR got nerfed i remember killing people off the mushroom in biomass. Palatinate, one of the best rail rifle users that loved to camp the mushroom to defend the acid pits and the playstation building objective. Me not having the RR at the time... but i had a CR, it was good enough to bother him from the ground in order for my team mates to hack. It was good times, weapons did what weapons were suppose to do. If that scenario was in today's weapon meta, i would be sh*t out of luck because the only way to compete to his rail rifle is if i had a rail rifle too, otherwise he would outgun me and be able to camp there the whole game unless i go up close and personal wasting unnecessary resources and to me that is just an inconvenience and bullsh*t. It's not even fun to play. But hey yall gotta deal with the eve lore. Aye. Weapons had their uniqueness and that was a good time in that meta. I remember you contesting me and protecting your bros since I had less dps than you. Your CR was truly something to fear, but my RR just as much. Good times.

I agree that rooftop camping is lame and can really make a match boring
But it is a strategy that sometimes works and sometimes doesn't
I was in a Dom match yesterday where there was an assault forge gunner guarding the obj from a high location
This was a rare time when it was actually a lot of fun trying to counter by either counter forging or in my case calling in a Rail tank to take some shots at him and give him something else to shoot at
We did end up winning this match as after we contained the campers we took control of the city obj |

Not for nothin, but it is assuming to think it's no fun for everyone. Obviously it is for someone or they wouldn't do it.
Annoying? Sure. But I enjoy the challenge of finding an indirect spot sniping those lil turtleheads when they pop up.
I'm surprised at the names advocating this. Options have been given for counter but some of you b!tch like little 5 year old girls with a keyboard. That's just weird lol.
Im curious. Who spawns rooftops with swarms up front on the off chance someone may pull a DS? I can see after getting killed by one then looking for revenge, but do you actually face 2 or more players just sitting idle indefinately, camping objective roofs ...with swarms?
What was that old saying from way back when? HTCU? No.. That's not right.... Seriously though, why homogenize more? Argue for ladders. Add. Not subtract. Especially when there ARE counter measures. I'm really just shocked at what I'm reading.

We just need more god damn ladders and vantage points (Gameplay counters) you dont even need to nerf the gameplay of roof camping just give us viable options to attack and counter.
Assuming the roof campers have sufficient AV I believe you have two viable options to attack as it is right now.
1. Fly cheap derpship stupidly high above said roof campers, jump out and activate inertia damps at the very last possible second for maximum surprise.
2. Fly expensive well fit ADS or DS with gunners and try and take out the uplinks and force the people off the roof and/or deliver a raiding party but you will be 100% committed if you take this route. All in, very hard to retreat if they have great AV.
If we had a few more ladders and vantage points across the maps then we would have I think enough ways to take out the roof campers.
I have had great games of roof camping and counter roof camping where possession of the high ground keeps changing and makes insanely fun battles but this is a once in a blue moon occasion lets be honest. |
