SPAWN TRAPPERS!
- Thread starter XGC BOBA
- Start date
I never spawn unless someone got us pinned down. But only then just a little then I move on. I don't it done to me so I try not to do it to someone else.
I hate it. I refuse to do it. Even if someone does it to me I back out and move on. It's just ridiculous to me.
I have accidentally spawn trapped one person I killed him, no joke 6x's in a row. But honestly, on domination you have a habit of spawn trapping the team. and I feel bad but, hey they have a chance to trap us right back.
I have no problem spawn trapping if it's a close game or there is only about 30 seconds left on the clock. I spawn trap to be tactical not a ****.
My husband will spend the whole game setting up a spawn trap and come out with over 100 kills on hardcore Cap. I think it's horrible.
Yeah x0 BOBA 0x, that is a bit horrible. Usually what happens though, is people from the other team will give the spawn trapper an "aggressive" review on XBL. Which will lower his "rep".
Just a sheisty way to play IMO. Not much tactical about something that has no basis in reality (respawns).
I don't blame people for doing it, especially with killstreaks/callsigns on the line, but refuse to play with anyone who knowingly tries to. I dont want their shady gameplay to reflect upon me or my clanmates.

ya hopefully they can update the game so theres no spawn traping, i remember one time it happened to my whole team. niether of us could live longer than a half a second, it was one of the dumbest things ever that whole week
Well in this day in age, gamers find the easiest way to play the game. IMO, true FPS gamers make their kills/streaks enjoyable and entertaining to watch. Not just post up somewhere to watch the team spawn in ur crosshairs. I'm not hating on anybody but, if you have to spawn trap the opposing team in order to get a win or a high k/d, then you are just destroying the games skill credibility.
I think people who spawn trap have no skill. Are you afraid to lose? Then get better at fair game play. That being said if you are playing fairly and someone pops up in front of you they're fair game. You know dang well if you leave them there they will shoot you in the back. Pop'em and run off so not to spawn camp. Just my opinion.
imo there's two kinds of spawn trapping. there is the one that the litterally spawn right in your crosshairs, and the other is keeping them spawned in that certain area.
on some maps it can be hard to avoid doing the latter if your team is playing tactically, meaning most are holding the line and a couple are pushing into spawn. this kind of spawn trapping i don't mind. it's really unavoidable and happend completely by accident with PUGs all the time. but to take time and set up some way to manipulate the game mechanics to give your team an overwhelming advantage, you may as well be lag switching... it's just stupid..

I find myseld spawn trapping sometimes on CTF but I kind of feel bad but then I remember it happens to me all the time
Yea but you would think, after how many years the FPS genre has been the forefront of competitive multiplayer, the game developers could find a formula that would help to mitigate the player's ability to spawn camp.
