They are now ruining the best map! Karkand

[Waste Land]

Oh how i love this map. Its intense, close combat and usually last along time. Beats running forever to get to a battle just to die. Theres no blackhawk whores but now theres a new problem. The worst spawn camping in the history of...damn spawn camping. I know people are going to rape spawn when trying to get black but they are raping them and just not taking flags.

Last game i played.....One APC sat outside of the Alley where you spawn at the hotel, another APC beside the burning car firing at that side of the spawn. So no matter where you spawned you had two APCs firing on you, not counting the guys on the room across from the alley firing support weapons, and the other tank blasting even more.

You might say "Why didnt use just you just use a AT kit and stop crying"...well because it didnt matter. It was impossible getting to them because of the support guys on the roof keeping the SFs away with c4 and AT was gun down even faster. They never tried to capture the flag just sat there killing over and over. We'd spawn else where, but we have to encounter enemy or keep losing tickets and witht hat setup it was just continous cut down and spawn raping.

Sorry had to vent

Spawn at another location.

If lame is the game, fight cheese with cheese. Get a Tank/LAV and take 'em out. If you don't adapt, you lose.

hahaha great stuff fair play to em ! dont tell me you didnt think to switch teams and do the same ? :laugh:

Yes, the vehicles suck, but its part of the game and the reason we're all not venting about them is what makes karkand so fun. You can get away from vehicles pretty easily. Just make sure you don't get caught without any stamina, plus Karkand is an ATer's paradise. You can fire and duck away so easily.

If you're still unable to run away from vehicles and keep getting mowed down by them, then you know what to work on. Just make sure you're still having fun, or else it defeats the purpose of having the game.

I have the same problem. But, nothing you can do. If you can't beat em' join em'. Meaning as said get in an tank/apc do the same thing to them as they do unto you. Karma's a *****!

Even if your wounded, can't you still call in artillary strikes?

[glasseye]

since when can support hit anything?

nope.

nope.

Granted I can only play SP for now due to the fact my computer is way outdated, I used artillary many times on vehicles successfully just trying to predict where they will be when the rounds hit (altough its computer AI and MUCH easier to predict) but in any case, a stationary target can be splashed with ease.

Got my 19 kill streak score by parking a tank outside the spawn on karkland and capping them as they ran to a repair/health/ammo crate in the middle of the road. lol good times.

The support guns are actually really accurate, as long as your laying down.

Sorry about that had a brain fart, misunderstood the message sorry for the confusion. :)

[sra_slimshady]

its pretty easy to defeat tanks in karkand. there are plenty of little hidey holes and roof tops to get on/in and blow the living **** out of mr. tank/apc noob.

the real problem in karkand however is ****ing noobs and there damn noob-tubes and freakin nade spammers. bunch of ****in loosers...

[Rock2568]

I dont see where this is a problem that couldn't be fixed as it was not the default spawn that was camped. The biggest problem with karkland is the fact US always rushes the 1st flag (flag in question) and does not take advantage of flanking the enemy you could have taken a squad in humvee or tank run allong the left outskirt of city turn right go uphill through gap in the house that lead finally into the main road and taken a rear flag then forced them to fight 2 fronts. The times I've been lucky enough to command karkland I try and set 1 squad as runners at least 3(2meds 1 anti armor) that hop from flag to flag starting in rear flag. Then 1 squad works as distraction these guys are the ones who keep the 1st flag under pressure and the rest spawn and defend/attack as needed. The biggest thing to remember in this maps is to create two fronts of attack to keep them from, pinning you down force them to be in the middle.

[imported_xRandoMx]

Just add an attack chopper to each side, will get rid of the tank/apc whores quite quickly. :-)

muahahaha. I hate when that map comes up and I gotta run around on foot instead of in a variety of rotary-wing aircraft.
