I played a few constant hours of dust today, and somehow a guy had managed to land a HAV with a missile launcher, on top of a building, guarding our LAST "defender" spawn location. He sat on the roof with his shield boosting HAV and popped everyone as they spawned, with no way of us retaliating. He ended up having a 45/1 kill score at the end of the round. I feel we should do something about the spawn camping, as it is rather cheap, and does not take much skill to maintain the advantageous position, as well as it could prevent new players from continuing their Dust 514 career. This is something that should be fixed or nerfed (eg. Have a cool down timer between long range missile shots landing within 10m of the opposing teams spawn location) to prevent someone from camping an entire team in, with just a single HAV (swarm launchers couldn't reach his location with accuracy or before death)
Has anyone else witnessed this lop-sided loop hole? |

Known issue, there are a few ways out, but it's being fixed anyway.
Problem is that each spawn area is acting as a fixed location when you should be randomised around the area instead, and they're working on making it actually randomise properly.
Also, an all-BPO Scout fitting can clear the blast radius pretty fast before they kill you, and if you also load Drop Uplinks, you can deploy one or two somewhere a little off from the main spawn and give your team an alternative spawn point to use. |

lol wait till you see dropsuits ontop of the MMC, yeah charged sniper rifle is even unable to hit them.
watch last night as 5 players took refuge ontop of the MMC.
bloody joke if you ask me !!
you do know that camping player also got a massive wedge of SP for a very easy task and no risk.

yesterday, there was an HAV sitting right in front of the spawn, supported by a group of heavies with forge guns. needless to say, we didn't stand a chance. |
