If I am squad leader I always tell my squad to work on capping all but 1 objective then we will setup a blockade so that we can prevent anyone from getting out. If CCP thought this was an illegitimate tactic they would do something to change it. They haven't so we will continue to do so. |

If you get spawncamped its your fault for spawning in the same place as reds are at. Sorry you just need to HTFU or go back to BF3 where they hold your hand cuz that's obviously more for you. |

Secondly what if it's a sniper or a tank camping it from 200+m? Still my fault for spawning on the battlefield lol? Is EvE uni all **** spawn campers or just you? I ask because you seem to want a mechanic which provides skill free kills. Not cool, not good. You feel this is the best possible spawn system? As for digging at bf3? When Dust has friendly fire, maybe you'll be able to say something about hand holding. But I say you are having your hand held with such an easy system to spawn camp. Free kills = hand held.
It is only free kills when people are to stupid to realize "hey wait I shouldn't spawn there". Is it handholding, no I dont think so but definitely a problem with stupid ******* people |

I could really care less if they change, but right now it is part of the game so my squads will continue to use it as a legit tactic. If it is changed I will adapt my tactics accordingly. Most of the tactics I use in game stem from my time in the military, spawncamping is merely a well laid out ambush. If they choose to make it so you can no longer camp crus then I will look for spots close to the CRUs where I can have my squad set up an ambush on anyone attempting to leave a CRU.
Edit: If you don't like it HTFU or leave I guarantee you will not be missed. |

Yes, the game is unforgiving. A good example: you can lose 1.6 million isk in a single round if you call a tank in and it gets popped by a turret no one is even manning. Yadda, yadda, it's tough fact you have to live with, and it's supposed to be. But dying as you spawn because the other team wants to sit around and pad their kills instead of play the game as intended is bull. And yes, you're intended to take those points, that's why you get 50-100 points+(depending on squad commands) to take them. It's an incentive that's implemented to nudge you into doing it.
If you were truly intended to spawn camp, the other team's main spawn wouldn't be out of bounds. You could just walk in and mow them down since you have all the other possible spawn points and the round would end quickly. It's not that way because that's not fun. It shouldn't be fun for the people doing it, and it certainly isn't fun for the people it's happening to. As game designers, they realized this probably as early on as possible and addressed it.
To say that the current system in place is 100% perfect and could use no possible changes to improve it is short-sighted. Was it better or worse before the last spawn point update? Oh, it was worse everyone keeps saying? So it was worse, and now it's the gold standard of FPS spawning? I'm certain that's the case.
And for anyone saying "leave the game then. You won't be missed." Haha, I'm sure the designers of the game, who want people to play it and eventually spend money on it, don't necessarily agree with your elitist **** there.
I'm sure that you have noticed that you and those that agree with you are in the minority. If it is changed then strategies will adapt to the changes but so far it has not even been hinted at that they plan to change it so yes HTFU. You will not be missed because the majority are just fine with the way it is.
