And KindBudz demonstrates why we won't be asking him to join the testing team any time soon.  There's never a reason to spawncamp.

I never saw it as a problem. 
If some guy spawns in front of you while you attack a base, what should I do? Let him see me and kill me or should I kill him first? 

Sure once in while Ill give someone a chance but only if its 1vs1 hehe..

I'm not trying to ruin anyones fun. I'm trying to support my side to win and the more people I kill the better it is for my side. It happens to me all the time.. And its usually because my team is sucking and not working together. 

What can you do besides putting spawn points inside buildings the other team cant get into?  But then people will just shoot at the doors...

It's WAR soldier!! tongue

I guess I just don't get as pissed off at being "spawn camped" as some people do..

But I guess its really up to the admins of whatever server it is that runs it. It's not like I would do it on a server that says not to..

You could put a shield over the whole base if its really that much of a problem.. That might be kinda cool too. big_smile

If the whole map ends up the same camp fest every time, Its because the teams are uneven or the map design is flawed.  If slaughtering people in their bases happens once in a while, who cares?

I advocate being able to attack uncappable bases just like any other base. Everything is fair game..

I don't see how you can call it an exploit either.. Maybe dieing shouldn't suck so much? Maybe the dead guys can do somthing good for the team as a droid or somthin... hehe

Ouch.. You make it sound like I would advocate team killing.

If a game mechanic makes a bunch of people spawn in the same spot why is it bad that someone kill them as they spawn?

The game mechanic makes them wait to spawn again.

Part of the strategy is picking a base not getting pounded to spawn at if you have a choice. If not then you better watch out... lol..

If the guy spawning had better control of the spawn you could avert most complaining about it.

If you could look around before you spawn and click the button to spawn.. that would go a long way to eliminate not being ready.. Some way to cycle spawn points at a base, before spawning, would be nice.

Death should be fun too.. big_smile
