Thog A Kuma Planetary Response Organisation Test Friends Please Ignore 37	Posted - 2013.03.15 04:17:00 - [1] - Quote Garth Mandra wrote: I admit it is an effective tactic. However until winning or losing a match actually matters I will continue to discourage my corp and squad mates from doing it for the simple reason that it's not fun. Killing someone while their screen[sic] is black is no challenge for me and it definitely isn't fun for the victim. You aren't doing the poor dumb fools any favors by not camping. This is one of the easiest n00b lessons needed to learn. look both ways before crossing the street, the gun is always loaded until proven otherwise. the sooner they learn the lesson the better player they will be able to be. This isn't self serving self justification for boorish behavior, it is real easy to avoid spawning into a camped CRU. If you are too impulsive to even look at the screen to see if there are winking pixels (and also too flippant to look before your countdown timer gets to 0) you deserve to lose the suit. I mean you Really Really REALLY deserve to have someone visit your home and smack you upside the head and say "What the hell? pay attention dumbass" There is no excuse.

I cannot get spawn camped at the same point twice. You are right I don't like being killed on spawn....so...I look. Don't spawn into a camped point. It Doesn't Take A Genius

You dont spawn and wait till someone puts a droplink somewhere?(hopefuly) if no other points are availaible the game just puts you at the CRU where everyone else is getting camped,it's a cycle you cant escape till the enemy hacks or destroys the CRU genius. 1, There are only 2 maps in ambush OMS that have CRUs and those seem to have a reduced chance of being drawn (in 10 games tonight i only hit one once(obviously not a scientific study (lol))) 2, If you hit the square button you do not necessarily get tossed into the CRU area (if you do get tossed there it is usually because that is where many of your team have congregated. I tested it to make sure I wasn't talking out of my kitten. 3, While it is possible to spawn near the CRU on default spawning (a)it is unlikely (b)it is not where the CRU spawns, sure it is close but you aren't directly where the campers are aimed. (c) UNLIKELY, as in, it can happen but that isn't the way to bet. 4,I almost always carry uplinks for for my squad and if i see one is compromised I place a new one right away to kill the camped one. It is what you do if you are a good teammate. (I recognise that most people do not carry uplinks and this is not an option unless they are in a squad that has a guy who does) I'm not trying to condescend or treat you like an ass, I just cannot see how this is difficult. When you play a game and it lets you do "x" and the Devs after being made aware of "x" do not post that "x" is an exploit. "x" then is not only legal, it is part of the game. I do not expect you to follow my moral code, you have no right to demand anyone follow yours whatever it may be whatever country you may be from, however you have been raised. Peace dude, not trying to get in your face.

I think we need to explain our actions and reasoning as you have. I would simply state if you like the way it is or if you could think of something better also. CCP has said they intend to "address" AFK farming (while killing friendly grenade self cooking) so you have to pick another one :-)
