Mate.. Spawn camping isnt cool. It is unfair, they're cheap kills. The rules are to play FAIRLY. Your are a noob if you promote such a thing.
Stop saying RAPE! Its bad! Do you even know what it means? OOOO!! I raped the base! You can't have sex with a base, no matter how desperate you are..
Consider the skills it took to get to a place where someone can actually camp...no free rides - all skills or no thrills.
Spawn Camping (capable flag) is different than Base Raping (uncappable flag) as far as I can tell, maybe I got this wrong?. In BF2 it is almost impossible to spawn camp.
Any spawn point that is in the flag cap radius, line-of-sight or direct fire of a flag is ruled out as "spawn camping". Free spawning within a combat radius? lol no way! Not counting noncap flags, are there any spawn points on any BF2 map that do not meet this definition?
BF2 = Highly dynamic and lethal (simulated) environment, Joint/Combined/Multi-echelon is awesome. The myopic paradigms of other games do not apply here.
Base Raping is another thing entirely. Base Raids are a good idea. A raid is a short run thru the noncap base, destroy assets, kill the dazed and wandering enemy, grab some empty air or armor then leave to recap some flag elsewhere. However after you cap all the enemy flags and he can only spawn at is uncap home base, then you obviously pwn, so then back off and let him form up, come out and pwn him some more. It's just more cap points and kills.
Real pwnership is that you have the skills, teamwork and confidence to back up and go another 5-10 minutes knowing you will unlimately win.
Make it fun for everyone then more people play. If more people play then you have more to pwn so your score goes up and up. There my students is your example of a symbiotic relationship at work. LOL
