I have to pose this question again to see what the admins think. If I keep getting killed by snipers or remote rockets that are launched "from a no go area" aka spawn, can i go in and get them.
I only think that it is fair if they are picking you off from spawn then go for em!! |

Admins have different opinions on that one so I can't really comment.I will bring it up in our next meeting for you though.

I wanna know the answer to this question as well. Often times I must restrain myself from enter respawn to kill someone who begins fighting me and runs. If your activly fighting out of spawn and then retreating (or shooting from spawn in snipers case) shouldn't the defenders be able to defend themselves? What's the party line gonna be on this one?

i always thought that if a sniper was shooting at you from spawn, you can shoot back, but you can't follow him in.

i am SERIOUSLY getting tired of snipers cowering in spawn 1 on avanti. i've started specifically targeting them with nades, rockets, and hovering JUST on the line of spawn to kill them. so far i haven't entered, but i am SO ready to. i think that if someone is attacking FROM spawn, we should be able to enter it and kill them. spawn is for spawning, NOT for making cheap shots.
And thank you Bada for paying attention to this! i hope for a response soon

I agree with you Why, but I think there will be too much trouble deciding who's attack from respawn, and who's just respawning if we're allowed to enter to kill pansy snipers ...I feel ya though, enemy snipers cowering behind the gates have become the number 1 target of all of my 'nades.

I absolutely hate remote rockets... Ban 'em and there's no problem.
As for sniping from respawn, why be a sissy and camp there? The best snipers are the ones who are always moving around and advancing... just when you know where they got you from, they move up and cover the spot you'd have to go to see them... *bam* another headshot death...
As long as the attackers respawn where you can't hit them, spam through the gates as much as possible! It'll keep the snipers from camping there

When I play sniper and my team is going for cap 1, I normally snipe in spawn (yes I admitted it! )I do this because the second I cross the line, I almost instantly die. And if you think that snipers are being cheap by sitting in spawn before their team has capped 1, then tell YOUR snipers to shoot them. After 1 is capped, then there isn't a whole lot of sniping to do unless you move up. And I personaly almost never run back into spawn or run from anything (except soldier or HW) after 2 is capped. And the snipers on the defending team often sit in their spawn as well once the attacking team is going for the church.
Both are equally cheap, but unless you have a coward sniper, ALL of the snipers have to move up to where they put themsleves in danger eventually. SO while it is annoying to have snipers camp in their spawn before 1 is taken, just wait for their team to cap 2. Then you can maul the snipers at your pleasure. Trust me, I do |

If lets say a sniper runs into respawn on warpath at 3 and the team isnt actually respawning there can you run in and kill him. If you have a teammate stand at the door so it wont close the other person can get rid of the sniper hiding out. I know when I snipe I try to get to 3 respawn as soon as I can cause it helps my team out quite a bit, but I dont have anything against someone coming and killing me in there. It shouldnt be a safe haven for a sniper just because its a respawn IMO.

I think it should be okay to snipe from inside that respawn (Avanti), as long as it is okay for me to shoot you there too (without actually entering, of course). But everyone throws nades, etc. and fires into that respawn at the beginning of the game because everyone inside is firing and throwing stuff out.
And, if you think about it. it is not like you respawn right near the doors. You respawn around the side of the building so that you are not in immediate danger right when you respawn. But, what do I know?

If someone continually runs back to spawn on Avanti, they're toast for playing wimpy. This isn't just one time either.

What I really think sucks on Avanti is the snipers on defense who focus at the area right in the very bottom respawn and shoot you as soon as you respawn from dying while trying to cap 1.Bam as soon as you pop up half your health is gone.Soldiers and hws do the same thing and I don't know why that is not considered respawn camping.

I have been on both sides of the battle (not sniper only med). I respect both sides of the issues.
Since it has not been clearly stated to me I will be the A Hole.
If you are in spawn sniper, HW GAY gy, remote solly, or if you run back to hide from mg or sg, I will go into spawn 1..
I think that this is only fair and will make the game better. We all love TFC so lets do it.
. I do not want to piss off no one, but I want resilution to the issue.
