Spawning into the middle of a campsite and expecting to live more then 30 sec, well thats the game as it is dont expect more then that. dont whine on 200 how you were killed right off he bat.
adapt and change tacticts, learn dont squeak on 200, tired of that.
put smoke down in front of you, run to a safer spot and learn to shoot at longer distances.
beleve it or not a panzr can do some damage a distance as with a tiger.
get the kills and perks to get the tiger it can handle more hits at a distance.
in a GV dont worry about scores, if your killing more people then there killing you then your in the good, if its the other way around your learnning and just give it time and youll get there and kill more then you die.
but remember the best die a few times each day and the main goal is to have fun and learn more each day of playing this game.

For me (who utterly sucks at playing GV) the frustration is that there isn't any way to tell it's a "campsight" until I blow up 2 to 3 seconds after I spawn in. My experience in trying to learn to play GV here seems to be:
a) Spawn in, die before you even see what shot you. Rinse repeat a few times, then go somewhere else.
b) go somewhere else, drive around without seeing anyone, exit out after a half hour or so of trying to actually find a bad guy to shoot at.
c) go sit some where in what seems like a good ambush spot, get bored after about a 1/2 hour of waiting, spawn out
d) go sit somewhere else in what seems like a good ambush spot, hear a tank approaching, die before you even figure out where he is.
e) go sit somewhere else in what seems like a good ambush spot, hear shells strike your tank, and die before you get the engine started to move.
f) go sit somewhere else in what seems like a good ambush spot, hear shells strike your tank, and die just as you realize that the guy that somehow ranged you the first shot is firing out of the middle of a forest at least 4 miles out.
g) Climb back into the cockpit of the Banshee Wail, a broken but much wiser man.

Ghastly, that sums up my GV'ing perfectly. Glad I'm not the only one. Thanks for sharing. :D

I have one word for you spawn campers............EGGS! :devil

If there isnt ord......B25H. Ive gotten 1 hit kills on everything but a T34 using the main gun.
Strip(er)

I like shooting B25H's down with the main gun of my tank. :D

I have found the HurriIID to be quite effective. Tried an killed every GV except a Tiger with it.

If you up into a camped spawn and get killed before you get a shot off, and you re-up or keep re-upping, and you keep getting killed, who is in the wrong? The definition of insanity..doing the same thing over and over again, and expecting a different result.
If the GV spawn is camped, fly back in the tank killer of your choice and blow'em away! Low Lancs are great for that, then start your GV attack before the enemy can get back to re-camp.
I have heard through the grapevine that this game was made to get people pissed off, so if you are, then we have another satisfied customer :aok

Quit whining about peopple whining! Tired o that. :rofl

If this game pisses someone off, they need to leave or take a long break.

Get a joystick and fly a plane, problem solved. GV's are a squeakie sideshow.

First tank vs plane ho? :rofl

I once spawned so many times against a tiger that was spawn camping that he was down to 1 round and missed my last up. Simply drove around him and popped him in the butt. Cost me nothing for the panzer, got perks, he lost his. :devil The rant on 200 for 30 minutes by him............priceless. :rofl
-
I up once and if i get killed by camper - I don't up there again :furious
-
Il-2 and P-39Q work best for me. Especaily with panzers. Their armour is very week in the back, only takes a few to knock one out. :aok

Learn the game, don't whine

Spawn campers can be defeated by a good gunner. My squaddie does it well, not me though. I just got my new rig up and running from my old laptop, what a difference. I hated gving before, now it is awsome. Had a ton of kills last night camping a couple spawns, and I did eventually get killed by some innovative guys...especially enjoyed the 4-5k or so duel at the end. Spawn camping is the best way to defend a base from gv attacks so don't complain if you keep spawning in and get whacked, just practice your gunnery and use your imagination to overcome the obstacle. As far as the lanc suggestion, very lame and gamey, use a tank buster, 20s, 25s, even 26s, ok... lancs...not so much.

Since I suck at flying, I find myself pushing mud when ever possible. As for spawning into a camped area - I find it rather challenging. Up a panzer, get killed - up again, get killed again. OK, now we'll try a T34. Whip the gun around, pop a few enemy - get killed. Run the T34 a few times, clear the spawn and return the favor - camp them for a while. Like I said, its a challenge for me and I enjoy it...never whine. Since I'm not right in the head when I play (Mmmm BEER) I'll up 20 times if I have to. If anything else, I have become a better gunner and faster at snap shots. But that's my opinion :rock

And if all else fails, it's always better to be pissed off than pissed on (Unless you're paying for it :huh)

I like using my panzer pintle on these.....and any others that want some

Ask your friendly bomber folks to layout some iron rain out there before you spawn. Or give the vectors.
I love doing that to GVs :) My Lancs love dumping their 54 500-pounders out there on em.
Satisfaction guranteed or double your craters back :D

my thoughts exactley

2 ways to take care of this. About 4 110's before spawning will make short work of the vh's, or get about 10 squaddies to up at same time. Problem solved.
-
I feel your pain but like someone else said on here if you continue to re-up "who is at fault"? There have been times where I have upped so many times at a camped spawn that I cannot count that high. At times like that I simply take it as a challenge to see how many of them I can get before I die again. I personally like taking an M-8 out to the spawn and taking out panzer turrets before they can shoot me and it probably pisses off the panzer driver to get taken out by an M-8. Either way you have to play it cool and realize this is a game for the fun of it. Scores? What scoes I dont really care about score!! You could up some bombers and take out the VH's of the base they are spawnign from and then try to kill them and the they cant re-spawn. Anyway just play it cool!
-
Just keep uppin and give them kills. :D

The definition of insanity..doing the same thing over and over again, and expecting a different result.
As defined by Einstein. I just checked yesterday, Einstein wasn't a clinical psychologists.
We all talked about it and it was decided that insane people are the ones who hear other voices and talk to themselves.
-
If I spwan in and die within 2-3 seconds I up a Jeep and run around and find them. Usually that will give some one else a chance to turn their gun on them while the camper is shooting at me.

I can think of MANY that need to do just that. :rofl :aok

lol spawn camping is for those that do not gv well at all. Can't be any fun just sitting waiting on spawners so you can only assume that fun is not what they are looking for so they they must be concerned about score. The true GVers will be in between spawn and town duking it out.
