can squad spawn be coded to blow up if placed into an object?

jackal22 · 2007-03-20, 22:36

it was really unfair playing sunset city as US and having a chinese squad stick their spawn point into the building. which meant we had to devote a whole squad to just sit and watch for any spawners.

worst thing is being acused of spawn camping - well if we cant destroy your spawn we are not going to let you just run to our flag un-hindered.

I have seen this happening all over the place now. quite a few SLs are it seems actively trying to jam their spawn into bridges and walls to stop them being destroyed.

Throw a slam onto the side of the building, or C4. It'll get it.

i hear you jackal, iv seen alot of RP glitching of late. where the RP is hiden. its not really that realistic hiding backpacks inside a mountain or wall. hope this will be addressed in 0.6

well sometimes people do it in mountains on accident. in buildings its super lame though.

This works or I usualy just blanket the area in grenades. It is cheap however as it still takes a while to try and figure out what wall it is hidden in.

Haven't you heard? Our soldiers in RL already teleport to a pile of bags placed inside cement walls....

Whats worse is when youre in a squad with a veteran or well known players and they do it. Its really a shame that people dont have the self discipline to not abuse something that is very obviously a bug

I do try and hide my RPs in bushes. Personally I don't see a problem with that, but walls or terrain are a no no.

Does anyone else have an opinion on hiding your spawn in bushes?
