I wud like to point out that some objectives are in buildings

I would like to point out that this has already been addressed within the original proposal I made, and referenced multiple times throughout the thread since that point when people have brought the same point up without actually reading the first post.

Objective which are indoors would have CRUs - either built into the objective or nearby. UNCOVERED objectives would become sky spawn locations.

and that when to hit ground you are vulnerable for a sec or 2 and whalla! free uplinks on buildings! and shotgun camping! not good idea srry

So you get "free" uplinks on buildings, but you're vulnerable for a second or two before you can deploy them, making them not free. And you're seriously worried about people camping on rooftops with SHOTGUNS? Really? Do you even know the range on a Shotgun in DUST? You're lucky to hit a guy on the ground next to you if you're on even a single storey building.

Part of the proposal is to increase the amount of control players have during freefall, so you can shift your landing point by a decent margin when you choose a sky spawn.

It would take too long to enter the battleground and dropsuits would be severely damaged if not destroyed from entering the atmosphere.

Sky Spawning would help with the initial spawn-camping problem, which IS still a problem even with the cloaking we're being given at the moment. In locations where you sky spawn, you would have some measure of control over where you land, and that much extra time to see what you're spawning into. I'm not going to deny your opinion's merit, but I do find it interesting, and the 100+ likes on the first post suggest that quite a few other people like it as well. I agree with this point.

What makes you think he'll even read that post I have quoted? You have too much faith in people.

"bring this topic back" however, does bring up something for discussion, so it is technically constructive as it relates to the OP and this isn't just a post bumping this thread. It does so in such a subtle way that makes one really think about the exigences of the matter. Also, I digress a little, I do not want my analysis bringing up a debate, or further taking attention from the ideas and the implications of such ideas, as that could derail this this thread into something off-topic. Anyway, I would like to thank you all for reading this and Skyline Lonewolf for making such an awe-inspiring post about this topic. Mere worlds will not do this thread justice though, action from CCP, either from posting a reply or implimenting this, would suffice. Sincerely The-Errorist
