lol, what i wanna say with this, and its not to take it literal of course, is that this rule in the end doesnt matter. It will apply only if you kill a standing target that just spawned. Because every other target u can say he was shooting even if it wasnt at you. Like Dary said, not to over complicate it but it does raise not so clear situations. For me, and i cant stress out this enough, the rule should be removed period.

Re: Basecamping?

@Lecter:
If someone throws grenades from base to the next flag or does use another weapon he is active, he doesn´t need to be a sniper to fight from base. I don´t have to wait until i get under fire from the guy that shoots from base, shooting at my team is enought. I didn´t say that you were sniping at me but if it would matter, i couldn´t be sure because you did aim in my direction from time to time. If a sniper is standing around at the border of the base(not were he spawned) with his rifle or binoculars in the hand, looking towards the front, he could aim, spot or use his strong optics to give reconnaissance data to his team. He just shouldn´t act as if he is active if he is not like ppl shouldn´t aim with a (Toy) Gun at the police, it is stupid and their own fault if they get shot. In your case it was clear that you were shooting and i propose that you do it next time the other way around: Warn or kick the guys that you really caught basecamping and if you want try to shoot the guys that only snipe ppl in base when they are active.

Maybe you are right, but it is annoying when you are sitting on the AA and a sniper kills you all the time. It give more power to the planes.

Yes you are right. I just think anyone can say "he was active because this or that" excuse. In Bulge, for example, I can be allied and shoot axis base and allege that axis were active and in the meanwhile kill some that weren't shooting at me and say it seems they were shooting, they were looking at mine or other positions. Again, what I mean, is that unless you spawn and dont move, it´s easy to say you were active for this or that reason. The sniping rule is stupid. Calling it camping is dumb. If you spawn on base and stay still u deserve to get killed. Go inside a house then.

Dary, its annoying but u have always the choice to spawn as sniper and look for the guy. I´ve always did that. This is a war game at chore and we have to deal with all the variables, snipers are know to do that. stealth and getting harder targets.

Re: Basecamping?

Sure, in my opinion basecamping should be allowed unless you exaggerate. I played at the beginning sniper only for a long time and i know, that some snipers you can not find. They just hide too good. wink

Re: Basecamping?

Seriously, snipers who are aiming the whole game into base should be kicked, nevermind if they kill an "active" guy or not. Otherwise tanks could wait until a guy does sth. Or planes could wait for starting planes.
It is just a thing of fairplay.

Re: Basecamping?

I don´t look at the base the whole game and even if someone does, that doesn´t proof basecamp.
If admins would kick for that, they should kick too if someone fights from the base whole game.
What do you think what the tanks do when one side has all Flags in Battleaxe? waiting until someone who is allready fighting has left the base?
Some ppl wait for starting planes and follow them until they think that the other plane has finished with starting, that is one thing that really isn´t fair play because a plane can´t open up backwards.

A few days ago i stood at bulge as engeneer, waiting for a tank. When i saw allied infantry on the other side of river, i couldn´t resist to open up with 98K. Then a tank got spawned, i left the cover to take it. Just before i reached it i got killed, it was annoying but fair because i have been active without to have died in the meantime.
If no admin is involved or has seen exactly what happened it depends on that both sides are honest.

Re: Basecamping?

Basecamping has to be fully allowed or forbidden. In my opinion, there can't be a middle ground. As rules stand now, you are not allowed to snipe at main base. There is an exception to the rule, when someone is shooting from main base, you may return fire. Anyway, you should avoid targeting main base.

Kharkov has deathbubble, only planes and jeeps aren't affected by it, to avoid those burning vehicle glitches.
