Thanks for this topic and the debate. It shows just how much we love the game. The debate was so hot
things almost got physical
I agree with bopes and mondo.
My view:
If you are making a delivery just clear the way otherwise make all deliveries in rear
Spawnkilling is shooting someone defenceless. Defenceless from infront (headon) is when they can not shoot back at you and Defenceless from behind (tailing) is when they cannot turn to evade and attack back.
I have been spawnkilled countless times, its only that i cant always remember who it was that did it. But certainly out of experience spawnkillers attack defenceless pilots from behind (tailing) before they are even off the ground.
After i make the delivery i do linger on to let my team bombers in or to buy time for them because for me its all about winning the mission and when i'm there i do shoot pilots from behind after they take off and are clear off the runway but not when on ground. Now the game has a thing like GPS where you can easily see the enemy as a red spot so when you are spawning check your gps and you will see where i am. I will be waiting for you to go clear-off the runway and since you know i am there it is not my fault you did not drop your bomb to gain extra speed and turn to attack and deffend yourself, i will shoot you down period.
I therefor consider myself not a spawnkiller and not that anyone has mentioned it, simply just saying.
After being spawnkilled countless times i have learnt a few things:
1. Brakes or not, the engine takes sometime before max rpm time enough for spawnkiller to go another round on the rear.
2. Surving spawnkill depends on number of spawnkillers and pilot skill, for me i survive 1 SK after three rounds of killing me, 2SKs i have little chance depending on my team size and 3SKs i depend on luck.
3. I dont spawnkill but i dont fear spawnkillers
4. It is very very annoying to get spawnkilled.
We are all humans We get ticked off This is a game designed for fun We all want to have some FUN not to be trained how to be tough guys by a bunch of cowards (excuse my language). Please dont let this get too personal It is A GAME forum Have FUN!
