CIty in the tank town

Sounds like Tyrannis and Skorpion need to get a room and stay out of this thread.  You guys are adding no value to the discussion...

This sounds awesome, make an tank town map where its a giant town where you spawn randomly on the outside of the town.

Yeah I threw that idea out there a couple months ago and was gonna try doing a map for it but between work, MBA classes, and a 2 y/o, it ain't happening.

If you can't spawn camp or snipe from 6k away no one will go there.

What you really want is a big, flat fielt with three spawns right on top of each other.

It could add an actual war scenario in the MA. That hasnt been done yet...Lets start with this.

On Trinity there are some massive cities IIRC. Just never gets used anymore, the concept of TT is kind of dead and buried.

i think i remember someone saying the reason why TT died on trinity was because they moved the spawnpoints back away from that little town to try to prevent spawn camping, but in doing so noone went to TT anymore, just simply bipassed it.

Not all that familiar with Trinity map, but gawd forbid you have to drive for a minute or two in a GV.  Spawncamping ain't fighting...just sayin'.

one of the main reasons i dont gv anymore.

used to love it, had over 300 perks from it.

but then it just suddenly turned to crap.


if its a large scale battle, everyone just camps and snipes eachother. noone really tries to advance unless they have air support.


and if its a small battle. the defenders will just camp the spawn points till the attackers get tired of it.

i lost over 136 perkies from being spawned killed. after that i gave up on gv'ing.

As long as the spawnpoints are random actually IN town

[ImADot]

Can't be IN town.  The spawn area is a circle inside which you can spawn anywhere.  If it's in the town, you could spawn ontop of a building or somewhere that you won't be able to move.

Hmmm, maybe I'll test that theory; with the new updates/patches maybe they've fixed that...  

EDIT:
Initial quick test appears to spawn Ok.  I moved a spawn point to be inside the town, and spawned in several places - but didn't spawn on or near any buildings.

Can you point the spawn in the town, and let the tank spawn randomly where there are no enemies around, somewhat like black ops?
