Seriously, we are trying to BETA test this game. While you may think you are "so awesome" that you can sit and spawn camp the ONLY spawn point with a TANK _AND_ a DROPSHIP and rack up some impressive massive score, you have absolutely no business doing that here. Not while some of us are trying to actually help CCP make a better game.
CCP, I hope you guys are monitoring that kind of crap and booting these fools. |

I'm glad that folks are weighing in here. Let me make a few clarifications:
- My post is regarding spawn camping THE ONLY AVAILABLE GAME SPAWN POINT
- I understand it is broken - but in this case, the couple guys doing this were just sitting there. Hey, a couple times, I don't care - this was just blatant abuse.
- When I say boot - I don't mean ban - I mean boot them from this match because they do not deserve their SP/ISK for purposeful abuse.
Let me paint the picture: Plateaus Skirmish. The defenders were clearly winning. We (attackers) were forced off to the top of the map to the ONLY REMAINING spawn point and no one could live long enough to even spawn a drop uplink. One guy in a tank right on a hill gun point to the spawn; the other guy on top of the overhang in a drop ship - guns trained on the spawn point - both firing non-stop. I understand, we got owned. We lost horribly - it happens. But to just sit there and defeat the entire purpose of playing, testing etc. just shows poor character. It's an a-hole move and I just hate that people are that jerky. It's a game - fine, whatever - just wish people would allow others to play respectfully. |

Wow that sounds like one really bad match you were in. I've been in plenty of matches where the defenders got pushed back and locked down but have never seen that happen to the attackers. It's just so much harder to spawn camp the last attacker point. There are so many options the attackers have. They could even run in pretty much any direction.
Absolutely agree that we are here to find ways to break it. Your points are well taken. That being said, I simply wanted to point out that no one could even run in any direction because they were cross firing perfectly on the spawn non-stop! I just thought it was poor sportsmanship. I'm not complaining about the already known broken game element - I'm saying GM's should be watching for this kind of abuse and not letting people be rewarded for it.
Eh. I'm just glad there are some smart comments on this thread - my point was made. Thanks folks who contributed something meaningful to this thread (even if it was counter to my initial point).  |
