    Baserape Or Not?

    i would like to ask everyone if they feel this situation is considered baseraping.

    You are the chinese in dragon valley, and all the CP's are yours. you fly by the enemy carrier following a F-35 and destroy it but are locked on by the AA turret on the carrier. DEFENDING yourself, you blow the AA turret out. You then wait your happy a$$ off for the enemy to get off the carrier and finally the lock on appears from the AA turret. Once again, you blow it up and ONLY target that part.

    IS this or is it NOT baseraping?

    i got banned for telling the admin that he was a moron to say i was baseraping for killing the AA turret. Then if thats the case, the admin should also ban people from entering the AA turrets on the carrier. it only makes logical sense... the AA turrets are there for a reason, and to say they are off bounds is unfair and BS.

    yes the server rule was no baseraping, but is that really baseraping?

    ps. server was Battlefield.no Lyse. i got banned for like 10k+ minutes lol. if the admin that banned me is reading this, you are a joke and a half.

    no i dont think its baseraping at all. why is the AA there? if someone was in it they would only shoot u down so why not shoot them down.

      No it is not baseraping. I always take AA's out on carrier and I have been acused of baseraping several times as well as kicked.

        So whats wrong with basecamping anyway.
        Only serverowners/admins make a big deal of it, most players, with a good common sence, dont care.

          Don't attack the carrier. Yes you are allowed to defend yourself but using that as an excuse for a kill.

          Well I wouldn't use that.

          Don't get me wrong. Not flaming you. Just my point of view :)

            exactly! your team got you into that position so you should get out of it. if it was the real deal, why would china stop at re-taking there docks? why not terrorize the carrier?

            what i should say though is that counter attacks should be allowed however, not a constant barrage of fire. that would make things easier for us all but it wont happen.

              But this is not real life - we're supposed to enjoy the game but when you have the whole team raping your uncap base (as soon as you spawn you die) where is the fun for us? Fine, don't let people get ON the island, protect it from incoming enemy but don't bloody rape the main base where people spawn! It's freaking annoying!

                If said admin was on the USMC side, he probably would have used his time better by actually helping his team cap a flag. I hate baseraping rules, its freaking war ffs. It's not fun when it happens to you, but heck, there are ways around it (capping flags for example lol).

                  i am not sure if you are responding to my post or not, and for that matter, the first or the second one, but i will address both.

                  towards my first post:

                  you get in the AA and are attacking me, why the hell should i not attack you back? to say the carrier is off limits yet fire off this location is unfair. think of it like a religous site. you do not fire upon religous sites and that goes for the same for using them as a firing position. you fire from them, your breaking the law. if admins are going to be strict about that, then they should consider it from that point of view too.

                  towards my second post:

                  if you continued to read on, i said it should be acceptable under the condition that it is not constant. let me explain this further-more for you. i may do run every now and then at the carrier with the jet, and really, why should i not be allowed? its not baseraping really if its once in a full blue moon. what is unfair and not fun though is if it is constant and i agree with you on that, but to say an uncapit is totally off limits is BS.

                  if people are so uptight about it, why dont you complain to dice and make them make a 'team boundary,' which would be similair to the out of bounds boundary but your team is allowed in it. you can have enemy infantry in it for say a few minutes at a time and anything else is less than 10 seconds, heck, make it instant even! i dont care really because that wont happen.

                    Re: Baserape Or Not?

                    Nah - taking out AAs on uncaps is fine, as I said in my first post.

                    Baseraping of any kind I do not agree with. Constant or not - why baserape if you can wait for the enemy to come and prevent them on getting on land? It would also be more fun and challanging that way than to bomb the carrier and kill all those helpless people - and its bloody annoying.

                    If you can't take the base, don't get on it - just prevent the enemy getting on land WHEN they try to get on your land.

                      oh sry m8. i over looked your first post. i haven't slept much, ill admit that.

                      and ill just say that i always am changing my mind on the baseraping idea. some days i think its just cheap and others its only fair. but then again, you can probably tell which team im on those days too. this is why ive come to the neutral idea that once in a full moon is ok. its not like they really are baseraping, and when you think about it, its almost like hitting any other flag on the map when the enemy has some.

                      but i do agree, i like the competition better than helpless people.

                      then again, if im the us and we get the chinese airfield and they cap it back, i will absolutely not let those j-10s back in the air... not with the advantage they have. no way. nope. never. nada! lol. but that was wake island (the game im referring to when i did that), plus i was doing it to also give me team a chance to cap that CP again. not to mention, the clan that owned the server broke there own rules first and started to attack the uncap. i actually took a scrn shot of then wasting meon the deck.

                      admins/clans breaking there own rules! now theres a classic!

                          Yeh I try to keep J10's on the ground. If I see the pilots are noobs on that team I will let them take off but if the pilots are good I will try my best to make sure they stay on the ground because a J10 behind you = death - and I don't need that.

                            so true. when i fly a j-10 i just launch 2missiles on the lock and dont even bother following, i know that they are going to hit... and they always do.

                            and yes, i forgot to add that part, they were owning us with the j-10s, so the whole idea was to keep them from having air superioity by holding off the jets n helo so my team could cap the flag. it was a really fun and close round i must say.

                            what about the bomber for the mec though. i found that i was owning the f-35's like no tomorrow... with the bomber!!! 4 missiles i had and 4 missiles was all i needed. i had a bunch of good laughs. i always shook them off too. =D

                              50k server banned me for that as well as bombing the assets in the ships mast.

                              reason was something like: "but you could miss (yea right) and kill players waiting on the carrier (at the other end lol ok..)"

                              if a server wants no attacking carriers then players should be banned from going in the aa turrets.
