I was thinking about the same thing. People should spawn inside the MCC, then drop out like a badass. |

If you are looking up in the sky waiting for spawners, then you probably are not paying attention to the objective or any of the other enemies around you that are already on the ground. |

If you are looking up in the sky waiting for spawners, then you probably are not paying attention to the objective or any of the other enemies around you that are already on the ground. how is that relevant in a spawn camping situation? at least if i materialize out of nothing i have a chance of not being a plummeting fireball from space.
... if you hadn't noticed people spawn camp to ensure they capture an objective (and get easy kills). So it's relevant because this will reduce the effectiveness of spawn camping due to the uncertainty of where the person is going to land. There are also other things you can tinker around with this method as others have suggested (like damaging/stunning blast radius when landing or selecting which part of the MCC you want to drop from).
BUT! It seems you have a great fear of being turned into the plummeting fireball from space, so let me ask you this: Have you ever tried shooting someone who is inertia damping down? If you haven't, and want to try, keep an eye out for enemy dropships that are about to crash (or people ditching their camping spot from a tower). Usually people will bail and inertia damp. Try shooting them. With AR, sniper, forge gun. What ever you want. It's freaking difficult man.
So basically your fear of getting shot out during dropping sounds silly to me.
EDIT: It's also important to keep in mind, that other games have done this very successfully |

Quote:i wouldn't know where they were going to land? that's shoe on head stupid. why would ccp let players drop in at any point on the map? also why wouldn't ccp bring in AA turrets for this specific feature? well you know how it'll work, those turrets will keep people dropping in on one specific location that's clear of gunfire and then it gets easy to spawn camp them.
Look, it doesn't have to be like that. CCP is still working on revamping the spawn system so who knows. What ever argument you come up with against this idea is ridiculous because this spawn system hasn't even been implemented in Dust. Every hole you poke into this idea has a solution. You just have to think.
Go on youtube. Watch the starhawk and section 8 spawn system. It works. In my opinion its better than the out-of-thin-air spawn system. And if you still don't like it, you can always spawn at a CRU or drop uplink.
p.s. If anyone willingly drops into an area being dominated by a hypothetical AA, you deserve to be "spawn camped" (the solution to this would be to spawn elsewhere, genius)..... |
