Kite.5327 Posted February 7 Share Posted February 7 While there are some very strong sservers out there who capture all the keeps on eb, it is not ok to just quit and hide in spawn. Servers refuse to come out to fight just hide in spawn are ruining content in WvW and there should be a big fat penalty for this behavior. 1 2 7 20 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There should probably be a big fat penalty for spawn camping behavior too, cause that ruins even more content for other people too. 🤷♂️ 29 4 2 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If your team is stuck in the spawn, it's because the enemy is overpowering and your team knows they're just going to die if they try. This is kind of a fundamental flaw with WvW, where you can tier-up an enemy's Keep, give it Tactic upgrades, and stack it with so much siege that it's impossible for them to get it back until people get bored and leave. If Anet can't change the mechanics, then the farming behavior is what needs to be penalized, not the ones being farmed. Maguuma is really the only server that abuses this style of play. 14 1 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chaba.5410 Posted February 7 Share Posted February 7 Place a limit on the number of keeps you are allowed to own if you also own SMC. 1 1 1 4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zikory.6871 Posted February 7 Share Posted February 7 I think this is a good idea. However, for some counter play. I'd suggest if you own everything on the map and spend more the 10m in front of a enemy spawn, your account gets deleted. 5 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jaif.3518 Posted February 7 Share Posted February 7 Spawncampers aren't the problem. If they weren't there, they'd still outnumber you somewhere else. Feel free to slip out the side doors and try to take a camp. The problem is population. There's a million threads on this, over the years. It's not just T1, it's different servers at different times of day - when their group of 10+other puggers go to take a keep, the 3 of you who happen to be around have no real chance. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kite.5327 Posted February 7 Author Share Posted February 7 Spawn campers are playing the game properly, they are insisting on pvp in a pvp map. People hiding in spawn doing nothing are refusing to play, and are the ones ruining content. When this is primetime on a "high" pop NA server it is not a population issue, it is a 'players dodging fights' issue. 5 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chaba.5410 Posted February 7 Share Posted February 7 Two things make me fall asleep in this game if I spend too much time doing them: mindless ktraining and mindless spawncamping. I really don't understand how some players are able to perform such grinds. It's interesting for maybe 30m, but hours at a time? Ugh. 7 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you are zerging a spawn point you are the one that isn't looking for a fight, you are looking to use 50 to kill 5. Maybe try another map or zerg less? And yes you don't need to be in a squad to still zerg, you just need vastly more numbers. 16 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Uthrax.4975 Posted February 7 Share Posted February 7 It's 2:45PM EST and right now BG is dominating the maps and has SMC, there are very few MAG on. In about 2 hours MAG starts logging on and they will crush the NA time zone per usual. THIS IS 100% A POPULATION ISSUE. 5 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Few on or per the logic provided maybe they are a little too worried about their e-deaths and should be penalized for it seems to be the request being made. Not sure the OP considered the fact how server populations are calculated and assume they think its done per each time zone versus across all. Welcome to a 24 hour game I guess. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chips.7968 Posted February 7 Share Posted February 7 Isn't a population issue, it's a player attitude issue. If you outnumber spawncamp and then complain, its one of two things. 1) trolling attempt - at which point, well done, you've got some attention. Gold star, your mommy would be *so* proud. 2) Do something else The idea of complaining that an entire game mode isn't *just* to your liking is peak snowflake karen boomer. Congrats. 4 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I really don't understand how some players are able to perform such grinds. It's interesting for maybe 30m, but hours at a time? Ugh. On a more serious note. I do wonder if there should be logic in place on EBG that if a side loses their spawn towers and keep, portals are available that would drop them off into the corresponding NPC camps as alternate exits. Now granted a lot of people don't try the side exits but in EBG those are still rather close in to the main spawn. Ironically it seems they considered this if you use EoTM as having the most paths to exit followed by DBL and then even ABL has a larger exit area compare to EBG. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
