Spawn Points Spread out and random
« on: September 10, 2004, 10:43:46 AM »
I would like to see the spawn points spread out over at least a square mile, and when you spawn.... it would be random. (except for hangers)This would make spawn camping allot harder to do. It would add an additional element to the game and add some excitement to it. You may see a gv spawn in a certian spot but if you kill it it very well could spawn behind you, left, right, over that hill etc. In the real world tanks just don't keep appearing in the same spot after you destroy them.

I agree.
It's stupid that you keep poping up in the same spot for the campers to kill over and over. 1 guy can hold off an assult on his base for a long time unless you manage to
1 kill him with a quick, lucky shot or
2 get a bunch of guys togeather and all up at the same time so he can't kill you all at the same time.

I have noticed you can pop up in a different spot but it's usually within a hundred yards or so....I would like to see it spread out to at least a square mile.

I agree, I like a good spawn camp as much as the next guy, but at least enlarging the spawn area would give them a chance.

Opposite side of the coin though. What ya do about planes "spawning" and getting vulched. Basically the same thing.

Well being vulched at a field is different imo. I usually can get my Zeke up off of the field if there are 1 to 3 guys trying to vulch many more than that and well you know.:)
  The thing with GV's is that 1 guy can sit there and get any where from 10 to around 30 kills if he's a good shot with only a minor twist of his or her turret.
  And yes I'll even admit that I to am guilty of the ocationall camp but it would be much more intense if you had to try and hide in a cluster of trees back a bit from a larger spawn point hopeing that someone passes your way and that they arn't sneekin aroun behind ya.:)

On a field all I have to do is (1) Listen..(2) Do an F3 and Look around before I launch....at least you have a chance....with spwaing out to a point on the map in a gv you have to spawn first.....and your first sign of a spawn camper is a hit, which usually kills you or takes your turrent out.
