Daddrobit Pink Fluffy Bounty Hunterz RISE of LEGION 277	Posted - 2012.12.20 18:18:00 - [1] - Quote Just got out of a match with a fellow who had found a way to get himself on top of the towers without the use of a dropship, (that I could see). I'm not sure how he did it, but his Thale sure was happy, (and so was my militia sniper rifle when I found out where he was hiding). He was able to access the tower in E6, then after I killed him, the one on D6.
Daddrobit Pink Fluffy Bounty Hunterz RISE of LEGION 277	Posted - 2012.12.20 18:23:00 - [2] - Quote Update: The fellow in question just sent me a, (rather snarky) message confirming it was a dropship. I knew it could be done with an afterburner, I was just unable to see him fly it when he did it. Anyways, is flying above the height-limit 'working as intended' or is it something that needs to be patched? I'd just rather not see this map revert back into hunting tower snipers all match again like a few builds ago.
Yagihige Crux Special Tasks Group Gallente Federation 172	Posted - 2012.12.21 11:28:00 - [3] - Quote Does he fly himself up there and ditches the dropship or a friendly flies him over there? Either way, it seems to me like he needs to waste a dropship to do this. I think the best solution for this would be to modify the top of the towers so that even if people can get on top of them they can't use them as sniping positions. It could be that the top tilts too much and people wouldn't have a footing and just slip off or it could be chimney-like in a way that wouldn't allow them to see the ground.

Timothy Reaper ZionTCD Legacy Rising 321	Posted - 2012.12.25 08:55:00 - [6] - Quote I don't see what the big deal is. It's easy to get up there, and it's not difficult to counter this strategy. I've done both. By the way, if snarky responses bother you that much then you shouldn't send snarky messages.
