Declined No spawncamp/spawnrape rule for 2fort servers

[SvenyTheFox]

It's getting really really tiring when the teams are skill unbalanced and we can't even get out of spawn. Theres some rare occassion where the a enemy team member will get the door stuck with his head or a friendly will keep the door open so that they can destroy us.

It makes the game really unfun for me, especially when theres a pyro, a heavy and a pocket medic sitting behind the door next to the sniper balcony.

I'm not suggesting an anti spawncamp, just a rule that bans extended spawncamping, you know, the demospam on spawn kind or blocking the door and raping the spawn.

Didn't quite phrase it right, I mean ban the action itself, like, forbid it.

Banning for that is outrageous.

Forbid spawncamping?

How would that work?

What would you do if someone spawncamps? Ban them?

lol!

I’m going to have to take SvenyTheFox’s side I have experienced the distasteful experience of being spawn camped on the 2Fort servers and it makes you want to leave the server just like most do.

As I see it creating anti-spawncamp rules on casual servers/stock maps (e.g. 2Fort, Turbine, etc.) is counterproductive. If a team is skilled enough to spawn camp your team, it's your team's fault for letting them get that far and/or not being able to push them back. I don't really want a spawncamp rule to be there as a crutch for teams that can't work together properly and as a defense against the achievements of players.

Furthermore, for 2Fort, there are two sections of each spawn area for the teams: the inner room and the outer room. If a team is holding open the spawn door, the inner room will be left perfectly fine and there will be opening to kill the enemy holding open the door. If it is a friendly on your team though, I would consider them punishable for trolling/griefing, just like how people can't block their team's snipers' views on purpose.

Not really because the other team aren’t skilled their usually 3 heavies with 2 medics and a engineer never stop holding m1. And also the teams aren’t sorted in skill level .

It's not hard to counter this. Use a Medic of your own and Ubercharge another class.

They always come back though.

So do it again. Or prepare accordingly beforehand.

I don't think the spawncamping rule will ever change for 2fort servers. However, I wouldn't be opposed to disallowing people holding open spawn doors at least.

No spawn camping is explicitly stated in general rules

 

[Captain Weeb]

Honestly, spawncamping is pretty easy to remove. Medic with uber (maybe 2nd one with kritz), heavy, maybe even a pyro. Plus, there are 2 spawns in 2fort and it's hard to spawncamp both, as the second one (right side battlements) also has a drop into lobby. Furthermore, if a team can communicate well, spawncamping is an ez clap to get rid of.

Declined as per reasoning noted above.
