So i was playing on the MEC side of Sharqi today and some guys on the US team got jeeps to our spawn to capture our helo, ect ect. Thats all normal and fine by me.

What they did different was to position the cars to block all spawn points. It cut off our team from spawning there period the end. To counter we would have had to go there and destroy the jeeps, i didn't bother and went on trying to cap flags, ect

I think it's an exploit of game mechanics and not a valid tactic at all. Spawn camping is fine but blocking off the spawn completely, thats just lame

Thats cowardice behaviour, okay that they steal vehicles but blocking should be unnessesary !

Wait behind the line ..............................................................

When a spawnpoint is blocked by a jeep, you should just spawn next to the jeep. Fix it!

You can't spawn next to it. The white sphere becomes red and you cannot spawn at that flag period.

Hmm, clever idea and good teamwork I suppose. I suppose it's a good way to make sure your captured bases stay captured without having to camp. But thats not the way the game is supposed to work so yeah, I think it's a lame thing to do. The game is better if people stick to the spirit as well as the letter of the rules IMO.

If I had been playing I would have gone in Spec Ops and c4'd the jeeps to hell.

Ok, if I had been playing I would have gone in Spec Ops, tried to get over there 57 times straight, been sniped / naded / run over / shot / stabbed / paddled every single time, got there on the 58th time of trying at which point the round would have ended. But you catch my drift.

Well there are about 5 spawn points on that location...maybe 4. You gave me an awesome idea and for sure I´m gonna use it on my own clan server.

the best is when you spawnblock the USMC helo spawn on sharqi so you can steal their chopper.

Please, go take your "fairplay", "no spawn camping", "give me a chance" attitude to a different game. WHY is this 'exploiting'? Because you were overcome by superior teamwork??!?!?! There is NO reason why this is not legit.

Well it's obvious you can't read, i said i'm cool with spawn camping yet quote me saying "no spawn camping".

Retard.
