Okay, first. V is a bunch of ADD children, nothing of value lost when they stopped playing.

Second, SVER is the one true god of MAG. (OIC)

Third, i can't connect to these servers long enough to bloody see any thing happen.
The other result is i get kicked for having played counter strike most of my life.

So really, i have no opinion about the airstrikes other than they sound silly.

Meh. I personally like airstrike not due to camping. Belive it or not without a basass spot and some hacks its impossible to stay hidden forever. Thats why I believe airstrikes are a good reward.

Oh hey, a discussion about airstrikes that isn't "how dare you tip the natural order and ruin my exquisite gameplay"

Personally I haven't seen anybody change their play style to get them, except the occasional deuce who just wants to try them out for the first time.

Airstrikes aren't terribly useful, and that's a good thing, because the point is that they are just a reward. They constitute a more satisfying and tangible goal than watching the numbers in the scoreboard go up, and most importantly, they're fun. I've had people tell me they were bored of the game and that this little addition had livened it up again, so for all I care, they're a success.

The airstrike servers ar twitch shooting call of duty fags running around... And the air strike is basically a shit ton of grenades bombing a whole fucking coordinate... Wtf

@Exile, what the fuck is V?
You can't take a joke can you? I hardly post on /v/ because it's /b/ 2.0, I only lurk there and post on /a/ (Which is /b/ 3.0). You were SVER? Well that explains it you were too hurfdurf dark and edgy for any other one so you joined THE REBELLION !!?!?!
Also, I only played acquisition and TDM the other mode with 256 players WAS laggy, however I have a horrible connection and could connect never, dc'd once. Raven owns most of the contracts now, SUCK IT REBEL SCUM!

Well, now we know who Noire is. <3

(P.S. Don't honestly care about mag atm, i don't have the connection to play any more. Was talking about AOS and using MAG as reference.)

Oh look, it's this shit again.

Wait, you didn't know I came from /v/? There was a thread, um I think it was Who" wants to bet this was posted on 4chan" or something like that. I don't expect you to sift through garbage to find that thread either.

I give people more credit than that usually.
Nice meeting you, though. I'm sure you're not what i assume you are due to your background of web-browsing. Its just a little hard to see the forest through so many trees at times.

Would it be appropriate to apologize? I'm not sure.

No need, I'm grumpy and I just woke up.

ANSWER TO EVERYTHING IN THIS TOPIC: Mortars

Razor, I had a badass spot once. Basically there was a bunch of fighting going on in this one spot in the middle of the map close to our base, I built a small tunnel network while everyone was fighting and hollowed it out (but not too hollow, had to keep it confusing in case the enemy got inside), then all I had to do was remove 1 block, kill a guy from that spot, put the block back in, go to another spot, rinse and repeat. They didn't find me once, that was probably the only time i managed a killstreak of more than 6, EVER.

Well, except for that time we snuck around behind the enemy base and spawn killed them for about 30 minutes, but I already posted that in another thread.

Yes but they deserve to be killed if they couldn't find you SPAWNKILLING them. Seriously, you have atleast been killed by the same guy twice. Its kinda easy he's foxhole-ing.

Except I was spawn camping at the deepest point in the fog that they were still visible, I sat there for about 12 minutes adjusting my eyes until I got a clear view of what they were doing. A regular person needs to adjust their sight before you can see them in the fog that dense and that far away. I was in the water and crouching too.

Its actually quite easy to see though fog. Dont focus on color but movement. I can easy spot people much faster then they can spot me by that simple rule. Also either way. They deserve to be spawnkilled. Spawnkilling is an art. If your good enough at it you deserve the kills and hence airstrike.

Don't you mean A Art ?

@Razor, yeah except that doesn't take any skill (that time I spawn killed all those guys I was doing it to be a dick and I eventually got killed by a guy who spawned right in front of me after I ran out of ammo.) and thus you don't deserve it. If the game was done right it'd be like brink or mag were you have turrets guarding your spawn/ you spawn in helicopters that have turrets mounted on the sides that you could control, or you parachute in, some kind of defense. However the maps are so big occasionally the enemy is behind you and you don't even have enough time to turn around.

Example of the game being balanced:
1. You spawn at the edge of the map from A1/H1 to A10/H10 , which is lined with landmines that destroy enemy players to prevent people from being spawn killed. (sure maybe you can get a lucky shot and pop a guy in the face, but don't even bother trying to walk right in there.)
2. Intel spawns in B1/G1 to G1/G10 or anywhere in between (when I say in between you know exactly what I mean.)
3. You can't build in A1/H1 - A10/H10, this would reduce the pussies that decide to hide in metal bawkses.

Or if you want to be a dick, have a Satellite track the enemy position and use an orbital laser if they go into your spawn. (This idea was intended as a joke and should not be taken seriously.)

Other Idea, no respawns, and if the game is in progress you must wait until the intel is captured.

Temporary Invulnerability when you spawn, it only last 30 seconds which gives you more than enough time to destroy their anuses and then some.

When you spawn, you can press M and enemies that are within your vicinity will appear on the map so you can pinpoint them and kill them, call them names, and what not.

These are just ideas i'm throwing out.

Now, some of you might not have a problem with spawn killing which means you found a server that is not full of pricks or cod kiddies.

I also notice that spawn killing isn't much of a problem on generated maps, only on custom maps that don't have adequate cover.

Thank you for your time.

No, thank you
