Tonight around 9:15 mountain time a player by the name of exi.jmms, myself, [66six]Phoenix_Cadjuel and a few other people played a round of co_kestrel which consisted of nothing but jmms spawn camping the aliens for ten minutes until one of his team mates began to blast the hive with a grenade launcher about 8 minutes or so into the round. I know it annoyed the hell out of several other people playing at that time, including one of his own team mates. He even went as far as to chase skulks out of the hive room when they tried to escape only to return once he finished them off.

Is this sort of cheesy behavior frowned upon? And let me make the clear distinction at this point that I know the difference between defending yourself while attacking the hive and spawn camping. He was in the hive room for almost 7 minutes before the hive even went down to 99% health; a clear example of pure cheesy spawn camping. I can supply a demo of the latter few minutes of the round, however this really shows nothing but me getting my ass spawn killed repeatedly and then the hive dying. I really dont know what I expect anyone to do about this, if anything, but I felt that it needed to be said. Also, I heard that he was once banned for hacking? Is there any truth behind that? Anyway, his SteamID is 75 STEAM_0:1:151949 just in case you choose to take any action, but really, I just wanted to bitch and thought that this might be the appropriate venue.

The attached demo is of another round during which I was purely spectating.

1. You have spawn protection.
2. You have spawn protection
3. YOU HAVE SPAWN PROTECTION.
4. You had a cloaking skulk, a leap/focus skulk, and I had an LMG. If you can't kill that, it's YOUR fault.

it is also the responsibility of each team to do their best effort to complete their objectives and not just putz around in the opposing team's spawn killing them as they spawn.

Spawn protection doesn't do much when you're a skulk getting shot at by a jper with a shotgun

If I were to get more than a few shots off at the hive I would have been instantly killed as they spawned in due to low ammo/shotgun bug and their spawn protection.

And you guys let me get that jetpack shotgun. Who's fault is that?

[chunkylover53]

A few shots is still more than none and its still better then just sitting there being an ass. Stop trying to defend yourself, what you did was really cheap and it made the game suck. Your own team mate was getting pissed off at you. If you bother to read the server rules, number 4 states, "If you are the offensive team, get the objective done. Marines need to attack the hive!!!" Take note of the part that says marines need to ATTACK the hive. Not just stand by it and shoot the aliens as they spawn. Read em for yourself [AOL] Combat Server Rules

then you die... so what it is part of the game. if you were truely a good player, you would take 4 shots on the hive, then reload.


as far as ammo goes.... Resupply is usually one of my first 5 upgrades

I was about to attack the hive, but you guys kept on spawning in. I was expecting for the other guy to quit camping and come and help.

So I can die and they'll all get cloakus leap?

[[AoL]Moth]

well, that is the challenge in the game. finding ways to kill cloakus leaping skulks.


Scan area is your friend. and so is improved armor.
