Does this happen to any1 else .. Your in a spawn room and enemies are coming out of the tubes but u cant see them for a good 5 seconds so ur getting hit from a suppressor and cant do anything about it. I must say it is the most annoying thing that can happen.

What pisses me off is when you are spawning at a hacked base and the enemy is camping your spawn room and you can't get out the freaking tube cause the door's fucking broke and you just die without even firing a shot.
OR, you are trying to defend your base cause the enemy's down the halls but you can't buy a fucking config cause of the inventory station lag bug.
SO DAMN PISSED.

Yeah, those issues suck. I also hate being hit by a freidnly spitfire because an aircraft is out of range overhead, so the dang thing shoots of to the side.....ug.

I never stand in front of the tubes any more. Instead, stand on the stairs in front of the tubes. This way they don't come out of the tubes firing and usually they go straight to the equipment terminal instead. You can then shoot them in the back. Yea, it's unsporting, but ya got to do what ya got to do.

I'm embarrassed by every standard armor kill that I have, I think it boils down to killing a noob or camping spawn (a necessary but evil part of the game in my opinion). Neither takes skill and I can't imagine being proud of either. As such, I loathe being the guy camping spawn and rarely experience that.
That being said, I take great joy in being the guy popping out of spawn with my supressor firing and causing chaos. Sometimes I can tell that bug is happening but I still enjoy it. Sometimes it's obviously not happening and I can still take down the reinforced with my lil gun. I figure even if they can pound me 3-4 times in a row when I pop out, all I need to do is get one of them and I'm ahead of the game. Most times I can kill on a 1:1 basis. I'll take my 150+ xp for every 2 you get, fair trade in my opinion. Plus my kills are something to be proud of, generic gun and standard armor against horrible odds and still taking somebody down.

I'm not sick of it, but I have experienced it. I'm just glad I had squadmates with me.

Ok i know spawn camping is wrong guys but imo its just part of the game .. If u dont do it sometimes it could be a matter of getting the cap and not getting it ... ... and if the people are smart they will stop spawning there

Yeah man I'm not ragging on it. I camp sometimes. But usually if I have a CE or SA cert I'll just blow the tubes.

I think its about right. It gives people a fighting chance against "lazy" enemys who camp in the spawning room.
Dont get me wrong though, i think its ok to gaurd the spawn room, to help secure the base, but i think the defenders should get a chance to defend and not be fragged the moment they appear!.

And further : i wonder if the developers made it so you never get exp points for kills made in a spawn room, how many people would camp ?....;)

Do you honestly think people are camping for the 1-2 xp points they get when they kill somebody who pops out of spawn?

People don't care about the kill exp. You get only 5 or so. People do it because you can either kill them before they have a chance to kill you, or kill them later but risk dieing yourself. It's not like people go into an attack thinking, "Hell yes! I get to spawn camp," they get to the spawn tubes because that is always the last area of any given base which need securing.

I personally don't mind respawning in this situation. I'm usually fast enough moving that I can get out and plug a helpless camper for his experiance. And what do the rest get? 1-2 exp? My death? That just let's me respawn again with full ammo again to do it all over. Sometimes I get 2 or 3 guys before I have to give up because of the MAX's there. As for being invisible, it's only happened to me once or twice, on both sides of the coin.
