Has anyone tried sniping from the Deployment Room? (So that's what they meant on the release notes when everyone was like "deployment room huh?) |

Just tried it out. Nope, can't snipe, let alone shoot anything from the deployment room. It makes sense though. From the CCP, you have clear shot of practically the entire battlefield, in what would lead to a major exploit, or huge tactical advantage (depending on your perspective)
But yes, on what the OP has said, kickstarting a battle in this way is (To quote Why Wub Woo Rainbow Dash) SOO AWESOME!!! /)^3^(\ .
Drop, FWWWWWOOOOOOOSSSHHHH, BOOOOM, and charging guns blazing into battle. THAT's how you kickstart a battle, especially when all 16 some mercs drop at the same time. Pure epicness. |

One particular map has an objective well within firing range of the landing zone from the MCC. At that time, reds held the objective and had a heyday plinking folks that thought it would be fun to drop from the MCC.
The very next match, I went with that idea and found a nice little perch to do the same. It was good, barring a few hit detection errors.
As fun and pretty as it is, it is also a predictable killbox. |

good point!! but this has to happen a couple of mins within the start of the game because you cant do it as soon as u spawn in because u would have to burn in too |

Both of the times that I mentioned were not either in the opener of the match. Both were well under way. When I discovered that you could drop in from the MCC and decided to check it out, the reds had already had a commanding lead of the battlefield. The match where I found my sniping perch, I had to traverse the field while making exploratory stops along the way.
My point I guess, is that the MCC drop makes for an easy spawn camping spot to round up easy kills from people checking out the new mechanic. I won't ever spawn from one again.
