This would have been the perfect time to extend the spawn points just a little farther away from each other. Just pull them back 1.5K would make a big diffirence.

I agree.  What was the reasoning behind placing spawn points so close that the camp point equals the spawn point?  You used to have to drive a bit with the old map.  Surely players aren't so lazy that they can't be bothered with starting the engine and changing gears before being able to camp the enemy spawn point?

I like that the new town structure, it looks different. Haven't got around in it too much yet.

I have about the same opinion about the spawns.

The shermans are sorta ruining the general play as well.

It would be like everyone having a Tiger a month ago. Same fire-power it seems. One kill wonders.

So, everything in tank town is 1 shot kills now. Why bother driving I guess? If you try to drive all the way around behind the enemy and you get shot once.... BOOM your dead.... why bother to drive?

For that matter, why even be in a tank? I would die in one shot if I was just walking on foot or riding a bike. What good is any tank if it can only take one hit?

Thats why you take a shot or 2 then move. Collected  9 kills before a Tiger got me.  

Ohh and I bounced a round from my M4 off him before he killed me.
So the one shot one kill is a bit of a stretch.

How about motion sensing ack???? get to close *fizz flop* out from the ground..... or they could make something like unpassable hills with only one way through so if u got the walnuts to try 2 cross you will probably be dead the second you get an inch of your tank through its rly annoying those pple who take advantage of people who have sucky graphics lol

The only problem with TT is that I'm not bombing it at 20 feet in a formation of Lancs.  Soon though, quite soon...

Yeah, it was pretty bad today too.... You would think that these ladies would like a good fight... But no, they'd rather camp the spawns and shoot ducks.

I almost never play the GV game. Today I tried. When I could get away from the spawn intact, I could more than hold my own. The problem was that 75% of the time, you were being hit within 5 seconds of spawning.

I don't see how you can stop it. As long as there are score mongers, there will be spawn campers. Or, vulchers, milkrunners and so on.

My regards,

Widewing

I hope tank town gets more cover at the spawns like old tank town had.  Spawning onto such an open plain is extremely frustrating.

Just spawn at your own VH and drive to town. Doesnt take more than maybe 5 minutes in the Firefly anyway.

There  are some easy ways to make life more difficult for us spawncampers, most of them already mentioned:

- Pull the spawns back another 1000 yards or more
- Add a second "offset" TT spawn for each country.  This was quite effective on some of the old maps.
- Add a bit more cover at spawnpoints.

pulling the spawn pionts back would actually make it a more realistic and funner tank battle, and would give jabo's less easy targets
