spawn campers ruining game experience

[BillionthOne]

10 plus minutes to finally join a server then spawn in and die, rinse and repeat...

i hope every spawn camper out there has their favorite toilet overflow twice a week and that they stump their little toe on their bed frame five nights a week 3 times a month!!!

you know who you are!

If there is any game on the planet that brutally punishes a fool team for not covering HQs and not building forward garrisons at the earliest possible time, it is HLL. Take a full 60 seconds and let that sink in. Then write it down.

Yes taking 5+ min's to spawn in to a game , Only to be taken out by 1 shot to the head 6 times strait in a row with no one in sight is ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ , Hackers and spawn campers it must make you fell like a real man / woman , Life going that bad you have to cheat to feel Gooooood about yourself , Get a life and P*## OFF

If you're getting spawn camped at HQ, it's because your team aren't building outposts and garrisons. If you are getting spawn camped on and outpost or garrison spawn, then it's either in a bad spot or you've been overrun and need to find a new place to drop spawn points.

This game is literally about map control. Killing enemy soldiers is only done to stop the enemy getting their spawns down and pushing across the map while you try to do the same.

Lighthousing is a very viable strat to counter recon camping arty. I used to play competitive recon in OCE for my clan tag. Lighthousing was a sure fire way to make things a lot harder for me. I had to spend more time thinking about approaches where I would not set it off and give away my approx spawn/run in location.

What really ruins the game is team swapping. When you have built your garrysons and your nodes just note the position, change teams and destroy them one by one. The team change should be automatic and only to balance the game as it was for Red Orchestra which, although much older, still remains one of the best wargame ever.
