Warpath - hiding in spawn

[Sal1981]

Again today, during deathmatch did someone (not gonna name anyone) hide in spawn - he was the last one standing, so he could just wait it out in the middle cp spawn with no worries.

It's not only during deathmatch, since the spawns have medkits and armour packs, mean they can simply use their spawn as a staging area.

I think the door spawns in Warpath should be one-way, i.e. once you exit the spawns, no going back in spawn - this isn't CTF after all - there's a reason you can't re-enter spawns in Granary. Only spawn you should be able to re-enter should be at the beginning of the map, imo.

Why is that so important? Even if I mentioned a name, I'd have to back that up somehow with screens, demos or what have you.

For the spawns to work one way it takes a simple texture change and a func_respawnroomvisualizer brush just outside each spawn except the base spawn.

I can do it for you guys anytime as it takes 10 mins to place the brushes and set the textures and another 5 to compile.

That sounds good. It's just a small edit in the map.

[thedamned]

no need to name anybody I've no problem saying it was me, so i used the map to my advantage to win the game. I've no problem with that.

[mikbhoy]

lol it wasnt you i seen then,good man for sticking up for youself,**** em all .

[thedamned]

you team could have won if they had of taken the last point but instead they tried to get me. there mistake

mugen fact is if they hadent of bothered to try and kill me and cap the damn points they would have won. there was far too many of them for me to take them so i did the only thing i could to prevent them winning and it worked

While i understand that, you have to realise its a game, if you lose you lose. I would rather have fun and die than camp in my spawn for however long.

No way could we cap the last 2 CPs within 30 seconds.

It's besides the point; it has to do with the map design, not how it's played.

[Waffles!]

The thing that bugged me earlier was the sniper that hid in one of the spawns at the center CP till the end of overtime, i suppose we could of taken the center CP and got to him but i completely forgot about that till after

I dont understand what you were doing but shame on you damned!

[Kaleii]

Can't really see the issue at hand either, I use those small rooms to recharge cloak as a spy for e.g , it's fine as it is imo.

what would have been stupid would be for me to come out and get killed there was far too many players left on the other team. sargatanas camping is a good tactic especially to win games. I don't have a problem with that.

sal
you say you couldent have taken the points the fact is i've played plenty of rounds where there was a similar situation where the last player on the other team hid from us and guess what we ignored them and took the points and won the match.


This is a public server and people can play how they like i did not break any server rules. I don't see a problem. I'm not a member of the fm clan; hell I havent even shown an interest in joining so please don't try to tell me how I should or should not play this game if I'm not breaking any rules.

He did the smart thing and thus won the round, well played
