I think camping is ok.

You should be able to do whatever you want as long as it helps you win. (except hacks)

But this may be a good feature that you can optionally turn on and off as an admin.

and Kore thats called spawn killing and they do it only when they know teammates are coming so that they can get the flag and cap.
No, most of the spawn killing i've seen are when the flags have been taken and returning to base (with flagcapendsround off). waiting for flag to cap so they can grab the flag after.

but i also realized it's quite useless when it's siege map... you HAVE to camp... lol

well thats what I was talking about...they spawn kill when somebody has the flag so if that person caps they can then get the flag and return it.

I agree with Smack on this one.
Off Topic: This reminds me of one time at Zsiege......
It's a 1v1 with an idle I get one flag drop it then go keep capping the other flag and round doesn't end then when flag goes back I just put it back. Then everyones just like what the hell how you keep capping and no new round!!!!!! lol

oh... ok... i guess idle timer doesn't help much for defensive purpose... i know camping has its purpose but some people just over do it to a point where it's annoying. i've played a few times where i just find their camping spot and get rid of them. lol VERY satisfying... that'll teach you to camp at the same spot. but they just go back to that spot after...

I guess the 3 sec invulernability is a better option eh? I just hate waiting for 60sec to play and then i respawn and boom... the darn flag camper just kills me and i'm out for another 60sec... that's not fun.

I really hate campers in ub_cliffs...cuz most people make it 60 sec respawn and you know the campers are in the hut thing but you don't know where inside of it they are.

Maybe don't get in their line of sight then? Because if they can see you, they can shoot you. And if they shoot you, you die.

Xena · « **Reply #26 on:** August 04, 2007, 02:50:28 PM »

eiii, kinda hard to be not in their line of sight when you are respawning

unless you can control where you spawn...

Eiii · « **Reply #27 on:** August 04, 2007, 04:23:49 PM »

Oh, camping there. If they're able to hold position there, you kind of deserve to die. Keeping your enemies from spawning is a pretty good way to win a round, if it gets that far.

lekky · « **Reply #28 on:** August 04, 2007, 06:30:01 PM »

kore is talking about pub, we are talking about match play. Camping in match play is often a required component of an overall match strategy.

That annoying thing kore seems to be talking about is not considered camping by me, just backhanded tactics.

Xena · « **Reply #29 on:** August 04, 2007, 07:38:58 PM »

sorry, yea, i'm talking about pub games.

in matches you'll wanna do whatever you want to win - i got no problems there.

SmackWaters · « **Reply #30 on:** August 05, 2007, 02:49:39 AM »

I'll admit spawn kills are annoying, but I agree with Eiii (wow). Unless you're spawning with pgp's and no loaded c02, you should be able to get them out of there quickly.

Apocalypse · « **Reply #31 on:** August 06, 2007, 09:49:16 AM »

Red Blood if you know there in there but you can't tell where nade them.

Nitroboy · « **Reply #32 on:** August 11, 2007, 11:32:02 AM »

I hate it when it gets out of hand, like spawn camping. I hate spawn camping.

Xena · « **Reply #33 on:** August 11, 2007, 03:16:51 PM »

haha, i like that image!

DaRkNeSS · « **Reply #34 on:** August 13, 2007, 01:19:55 PM »

Is there any type of coding in the game to make people spawn at the farthest spawn from the enemy? Like on maps like jump, if an enemy is camping the wet side it will have the player spawn on the dry side.

Apocalypse · « **Reply #35 on:** August 13, 2007, 04:41:24 PM »

That sounds like a good idea Dark although it would only help in some maps.

jitspoe · « **Reply #36 on:** August 13, 2007, 09:28:43 PM »

Spawn farthest code is already implemented.

Well then implement the spawn even farther code.

Xena · « **Reply #38 on:** August 14, 2007, 06:47:29 PM »

lol, kilo... how far?? enemy base?? lol

Apocalypse · « **Reply #39 on:** August 14, 2007, 07:16:35 PM »

It is never knew that Jits I always thought that was weird how I never spawn on the same side as the person is coming from in jump.
