Wakko03 Better Hide R Die D.E.F.I.A.N.C.E 225	Posted - 2013.07.01 03:50:00 - [1] - Quote Let's get some numbers together becuase let's face it, if you haven't been sacrificed at least once you aren't playing. What I am talking about is simple, so simple even these forums should understand it. You choose your suit, you know you are facing guys that in the last 3 games you were in and so were they and they were using vehicles, so it is an AV based suit. You select to spawn in and when you actually make it in to the match you immediately wish you had your frag grenades and a rifle. Why because standing in front of you is 10 of the enemy team, maybe you get lucky and you are behind them but what normally happens is that they don't even have to move their gun in order to drop you. Also why doesn't a standard ambush end after 50clones are dead... why does it keep going for another 2-3 minutes afterwards sometimes?
Niuvo The Phoenix Federation 48	Posted - 2013.07.01 03:53:00 - [2] - Quote Yes, I have been sacrificed before.
DeadlyAztec11 Max-Pain-inc 607	Posted - 2013.07.01 03:54:00 - [3] - Quote Too many!
Zekain K Expert Intervention Caldari State 145	Posted - 2013.07.01 03:54:00 - [4] - Quote Always wait 5-10 seconds before you spawn. Let the 2 teams engage first, that way you'll probably be guaranteed a "safe" spawn. If you do not feel like waiting, always spawn in a free suit.
TheAmazing FlyingPig Crux Special Tasks Group Gallente Federation 1237	Posted - 2013.07.01 04:16:00 - [5] - Quote Happens to me too. Feels great when I can take a few guys down with me. Saves me the trouble of walking.

I don't know, but I really miss Chromosome's "roll Victory/Defeat" after the first bleed-out past 0 clones. I don't know if CCP did it to give the team with zero clones a chance to claw victory from the jaws of defeat, but I've never seen it happen. Maybe they changed it because it's "more realistic" to have to fight to the last man. Maybe it's a trap to get the bored people bleeding out on the ground to lose one last suit before the match is over...
oso tiburon The Generals EoN. 44	Posted - 2013.07.01 04:19:00 - [7] - Quote why in the hell does anybody play call of duty mode anyway
The legend345 Silver Talon Corporation 195	Posted - 2013.07.01 04:21:00 - [8] - Quote Two words REMOTE EXPLOSIVES >:)!
Provolonee Undefined Risk DARKSTAR ARMY 12	Posted - 2013.07.01 04:50:00 - [9] - Quote It happens to somebody at least once a match, but once it gets going it's fine. I don't play ambush often, but every match in all game modes I escalate the quality of my fits. First spawn is allways a cheaper fit, once I get a uplink down and get a feeling for the enemy I spawn in my bigger guns. There is nothing better than going an entire round without losing that first cheap fit. It also means I can throw it away to bring in a big boy proto counter to what's on the field with little spawn risk.

Or you actually end up spawning next to your bluedots who are surrounded by reds...not a fool-proof plan. CCP hasn't given us an excuse yet.... but I am sure they are working on it. Then you have the players who can control where the enemy spawns or they know where they will spawn because they have spawned there themselves many times too.

I have never seen it work like that, even on the close games where one team ended up killing the other team... which ever side gets 0 first gets the loss. Can CCP confirm or deny that kills that occur after the 0/0 or 0/X actually count towards the KILLs or towards the ISK payout? The ones that seem to take the longest to end is when there is a vehicle rolling around.... good chance that it is a sunday driver in a LAV just driving around not even near the team or playing the same game... ie they are just goofing.
Skipper Jones Red Star. EoN. 197	Posted - 2013.07.01 06:18:00 - [12] - Quote I don't play ambush...
KOBLAKA1 Opus Arcana Covert Intervention 139	Posted - 2013.07.01 06:46:00 - [13] - Quote confirming this happens at LEAST 1 out of 5 matches
A'Real Fury D.A.R.K L.E.G.I.O.N D.E.F.I.A.N.C.E 257	Posted - 2013.07.01 10:39:00 - [14] - Quote Seems to happen 10% of the time unless you have a real unlucky streak then it can happen multiple times in game and across multiple games. For me I seem to find at least 1 red heavy and an assault standing behind me when it happens.
Banning Hammer Tal-Romon Legion Amarr Empire 108	Posted - 2013.07.01 10:44:00 - [15] - Quote Actually, one of my best killing spreads was in that situation. I spawned directly behind 4 people, a grenade and a couple of AR magazines later, i got the 4 easiest kill i had ever got in Dust 514. Of course, i also been in the receiving end of that hammer..
Sponglyboy Squaredoo Not Guilty EoN. 620	Posted - 2013.07.01 10:45:00 - [16] - Quote Way too often
Cass Barr Red Star. EoN. 419	Posted - 2013.07.01 10:52:00 - [17] - Quote oso tiburon wrote: why in the hell does anybody play call of duty mode anyway Well it's either that or the "Half your team will camp in the MCC" modes.
DumpsterJuice Krusual Covert Operators Minmatar Republic 25	Posted - 2013.07.01 10:57:00 - [18] - Quote Usually when it happens to me they place me directly in front of a few enemy heavies with boundless HMGs, I swear CCP watches and laughs every time
Himiko Kuronaga SyNergy Gaming EoN. 715	Posted - 2013.07.01 11:04:00 - [19] - Quote I am sacrificed often. But I do not go down easy and I do not go down alone.
Daedric Lothar Tritan's Onslaught RISE of LEGION 782	Posted - 2013.07.01 11:58:00 - [20] - Quote I've been sacrificed many times. The best was when you were redlined sacrificed. Spawn you over in the wrong field of battle only to shoot you in the head going going AWOL.

Knight SoIaire Rent-A-Murder Taxi 983	Posted - 2013.07.01 12:01:00 - [21] - Quote Scout Suit baby. I always escape Gotta go fast!

Scheneighnay McBob Bojo's School of the Trades 1854	Posted - 2013.07.01 14:00:00 - [23] - Quote 3 times, 2 of which were yesterday. I'm at least getting better with my grande skills when this happens. Bringing some reds down with me
Makuta Miserix Better Hide R Die D.E.F.I.A.N.C.E 109	Posted - 2013.07.01 14:06:00 - [24] - Quote I've had it happen many times. The best one is when I spawned behind them with a Shotgun. I still died though, Scout = glass.
Wakko03 Better Hide R Die 329	Posted - 2013.08.18 15:28:00 - [25] - Quote This needs some attention CCP, just why can I not spawn with the other 15 players on my team, but instead have to be deposited surrounded by all the red team? This is on the first spawn of the match when it is really annoying and un-acceptable, and to clarify I am not talking about spawning just near them, but right in front of their guns with my back to them, dead before I even finish spawning in.
IceShifter Childhaspawn DUST University Ivy League 193	Posted - 2013.08.18 15:44:00 - [26] - Quote The Hamster desires clone blood. The Hamster rules the probability of spawning in unfortunate circumstances. Make a Trophy called 'FRAK YOU HAMSTER!!!' awarded when one is chosen as the sacrifice and survives.
