Seal clubber spawn campers should be punished

If spawn camping not unfair how convince new players( in low BR 1.0-4.0) to warthunder not a s.h.*.t. game while they died multiple times in row by spawn campers?

Ok it’s legal and easily to get 10-22 kill/ battle but i still keep as an ungentlemanly behavior…and that was the reason why this topic created…

… if it fit for your game style not my issue…

Replace players with Bots… no spawn camping problem… no spawnprotection problem… no spawn detection problem…

Agree with first two but not the last one, Ive killed people in there spawn through stealth and not from close range either. (I did this with the m56)

Simple solution to Spawn Camping:

  • Remove all ammo so players’ vehicles are not damaged
  • Only allow one size tank so that there is no unfair weight/size advantage (like NASCAR)
  • Remove all engines so a player will not be threatened by a possible bumper car scenario

Dude… the enemy team allowed someone with a death wish to spawn camp them.

Not my fault I spawn camped them, they just wouldn’t frag me.
I just wanted to leave the match giving someone credit.

I had an entire match of dumb teammates who didn’t flank, they kept driving forward, didn’t even know the enemy was to our right, kept dying, and repeated the same action. heck, a couple of matches ago your typical German main decided “Hey, I’m being hit, instead of trying to identify the location of the enemy tank, I’ll just keep driving forward”. Pretty much ignored where the fire was coming from. I do feel bad for the few German mains that are good at their job but what can you do sigh.

Hold up a minute! My popcorn isn’t done yet!

Solution to spawn camping:

  • Better map design. Don’t punish players for doing what Gaijin encourages with their shitty sightlines and flat maps.

  • Give us maps with hills, soft and hard cover and multiple egress points from spawn and multiple spawns in general.

  • Give us bigger maps so it’s hard to have oversight of both spawn points.

  • Make it so you cannot shoot from objective into spawn or even the egress points of said spawn. Clarification: Do this through smart placement of concealment, hills and cover NOT arbitrary mechanics.

  • Give us objectives that are more spread out so that in event a spawn is lost, players can spawn on the other side of the map and push the enemy objectives. If the enemy snowballed into your spawn on one side, that likely means they’re way underdefended on the rest.

And my holy grail wish:

Make it so capturing objectives unlocks new spawns so maps are dynamic and there’s tactical advantage to prioritize specific points.

Don’t spawn. You can’t be spawncamped this way.

Ok chance come from maps bad construction, battle situation, blind players , dumber teammates lemming trains or other many reason. Basically in some upgraded map case thanks to construction hard to fall back when reached the final layer.

But Bro just one question, What forced you to do not stop next to bridge or in safe distance set up an ambush and wait while enemy try to attacking? Choose spawn camping and stand on enemy spawn always an easy way. If they allowed for you or not.

…and we are angry when we saw a lot of players who leave battle after lost his first vehicle… something for something…

I wanted to go into the next match as fast as possible for my daily.
That’s also the only time I ever had the opportunity to spawn camp 38th, it’s almost impossible to spawn camp on that map.

38th is one of the spawn camping map just need to block key points and enemy no chance. Upgraded version have less attack way than before. The key is capture and hold island than go one of the ‘green marked location’: enemy no chance to detect you and able to finish the enemy lemming train with ambush or shoot fresh spawned enemy.

To go fast as possible to next battle when only low enemy number had and battle end already decided i usually give up my tank not wait when enemy spawned next to me and he/she spot my armor and try to kill me. This also a waiting time. Thats a fastest way to enter next battle.

Only 3 of those in the north are actually spawn camping, the rest are not.
And only 2 positions in the south you circled are spawn camping, the other two aren’t.

The exclusive time I’ve seen spawn camping this year on 38th is when I did it just now.

Lot of time i suffered and spawn camped on 38th, thanks to his concept. F4 road is a key point kill 1-2 enemy and use a wreck as a cover and you able to spawn camp. Or use the catwalks on hill(D4) to snipe lemmings who attack from road(D6 road, F3 road,B3-B4 road…etc). Not to talk, easy to detect spawn defenders who camp next to spawn in paralells hills and kill them all.

B3 Road case same. They nothing can do.
B6-C6 road same.

Small village in B4-A4 is the best place where R.A.T.s able to hide. Lot of road and building exist with hight stone fence. if you rush into enemy spawn and kill 2-3 enemy you able to fall back and hide next to one builing.

G4 village same but in this case you need to watch your back also. Thanks to cover hills you able to fall back while reload and go forward when loaded. Kill and enemy and fall back. Not to talk destroyable cover objects(AA gun, truck ,tents) also a best hide objects…

F6-F7 roads able to cover from multiple ways and set up a perfect ambush. and kill lemmings who rush to C. in B6-C6 road case same.

A suggestion to put an end to or at least discourage campers. Make a list of the names of those you already know who like to camp at spawn. At the start of the match, just look to see if any of them are on the opposing team. If any of them are there, I already know what will happen, so I play with just three aircraft. If I die three times I’ll just be in spectator mode. This is because if you come in again, they will already be waiting. Just let the campers play alone. If every team does this we can put an end to this regrettable practice that many experts do to get easy kills. I suggest this because it seems that reporting this type of behavior has no effect or at least I have never seen any response from Gaijin.

Our maps are designed to let players choose spawn camp for it’s efficiency and safety.
