Except that this can't actually happen.

Drop uplinks have a limited amount of uses before they disappear.

Don't they teach you anything in that university of yours?

This exploit is due to a design flaw. The button used to "Select default spawn location" keeps changing between X and Square depending on whether or not there are any Clone Units or Drop Uplinks. But most players always hit X.

So what you do is wear a free dropsuit in Ambush and place Drop Uplinks wherever your team will get killed the fastest, and go hide, put down the controller, and have a snack. Most players will keep hitting the X button to respawn even though the default spawn button changed from X to Square.

You get +25 points for each spawn times up to 80 spawns for up to 1250 war points, thousands of skill points, and 100-200 ISK. You are likely to get first place on your team.

Wouldn't work. Logi's on your team would likely have their own uplinks set up. If people see that one location is being camped, they will just warp in to the safer location.

Each uplink spawns ten times, and you can put sown two at a time. So replace after 20 respawns. You get +25 points for each spawn times up to 80 spawns for up to 1250 war points, thousands of skill points, and 100-200 ISK. You are likely to get first place on your team.

I find Galen GaiaGÇÖs post very disappointing, particularly since you can get almost the same results WP wise by placing your Uplink in a fortified or strategic position where it benefits your team.

Abusing the player base in this manner and AFK WP farming is not the sort of game play that DUST University promotes. I am very disappointed to see one of our members posting such suggestions.

And yet he still bears your corporation tag, promoting "abusing the playerbase" !
Simple solution = "are you sure you want to kick corp member" --> Yes

The OP's post is one of the more self-serving ones I've seen on the forums as of late. I guess congratulations of dubious nature are in order for you and your so-called university.

But it does work. I explained why. You are missing the point. The reason this works is so many newberries in random Ambush games do not realize use can use default spawn with the Square. And I am usually the only person placing uplinks. The learning curve on this game is so high people do not notice how the X and Square buttons change.

If I was a director he would have been out of the Corp 10 minutes ago. Well, actually I am at work right now, but I would be heading home on my Coffee break and dealing with it! I am sure a Director will get wind of this before long.

This can just as easily be used in a positive manner by placing the Uplink in at a defensible position where all the spawning blueberries can back each other up and have cover to hold off the advancing Reds. Add a Nano Hive and you may just snatch a victory out of a losing match.
