Im not sure if this has been metioned 100 times but i was just thinking about spwaning and i was wondering.

Lets say a team is in the middle of capturing a base or they forgot to bring a hacker or the hacker died. Well i was thinking, couldent a few ppl just camp near the spaning tube and shoot one by one the pepole that come out.


Im sorry if this subject has alredy been mentioned.

Im sure the spawn rooms will be out of bounds to the attacking team,

eg. Team Fortress Classic, both spawn rooms could only be accessed if you where on the correct team (anyone who managed to slip in while the door was opened got blasted by a sentry gun)

In people can camp the spawn tupes and kill people before they can kit out with armor and weapons then thats bad game design.

Sony dosnt do bad games

Your team forgot to bring a hacker, and then you want to spawnkill people near the spawning tubes? :rofl: I dont understand :confused:

Yeah I think I read this before...

yeah sure you can camp the spawn tubes, probly an EZ bep thinggy, might run out of amo or get boared but w/e

+ after you kill 1 person at the spawn toobs and they are dead again, that dead person can choose to spawn at a different location so its not going to be flowing bep

+ there are lots of spawn tubes in a base probly, so it will probly be rare that you got enough people to cover each tube and not have a hacker

+ I just thought of something, i member reading that the only difference between a hacker and a normal person is hackers hack really fast, so I think anyone can hack a base but it will take a really long time (that could Ezely be wrong I am think 50% that I am right)

HOPE that helped

I hate those camping cowards. It's always great to find someone camping, them sneak up from behind and blast their head off. Serves them right.

I know there aren't any head shots, it was just an expression ;) Still, if I saw one, I'd back away, then blow the mofo up with a decimator.

Hmm, speaking of no area-specific damage, I assume there won't be any insta-kills from stabbing people in the back with your dagger thing like in CS. Or is there?

ok, thanks, but wot has HS:S to do with sony doing EQ? :confused: . Also I saw at a swedish site that they voted the best games of 2002, the best mmorpg was something high but EQ just got 5 percent.
Ya no hs:s sux, hs:s offers much more skill in close combat and snipering ppl, and when u see a max in close combat, you will be pretty much dead since its no hs:S, even when your skilled

Chances are if you walk outside of yuor base and are wearing standard, agile or inf armour and you suddenly drop dead it'll be by me. :D

You don't have to camp spawn tubes. They're destroyable.

And they shut down when the gens are destroyed.

:nono: Actually you cant blow up spawn tubes. Because even in the interview th Dev's sais that you cant blow anything up in the base. That also means you can't blow up spawn tubes.

Maybe they meant you cant blow them up permantely.

I think you got it backwards. They said you can blow up gens, you CAN camp the spawn tubes, you can blow up equipment terminals, you can blow up vehicle pads, but they can all be repaired, ala T2

from Dave Georgeson on AGN interview
Basically, if it�s important, it�s destroyable. Well, that�s not quite true; you can�t destroy control consoles because we don�t want you to be able to blow up your own control console to defend your own base. But other than that, equipment terminals, medical terminals, manned turrets, basically everything you can interface with can be blown up, except control consoles and the silos; those are the only things you can�t destroy.
This means that spawn tubes are destroyable.

Actually, I remember Smoke posting about spawn camping awhile back, and he said that you can. So, both of those, plus blowing the generator. Plenty of options.:)
