BF2S Forums Attacking uncaps.

Baseraping is a matter of life or death for US pilots on PLA maps.. you HAVE to make sure the J-10 stays on the ground or its game over.

As far as I know ""Attacking Uncaps being allowed" is the norm. Now, if a server doesn't want you to play like that, I think they pay their money and deserve a server that lets you have a fun game.

Your Epeen isn't as important as other people's enjoyment.

lol ditto to comet241 here we go again m8   



@the thread - Its simple - follow the rules. If there are spawnfence rules then don't break them go play elsewhere.

If there are no spawnfence rules then since it doesn't even exist as an official concept in BF2, which they handled the last generation of FPS's spawncamping by adding Squad Leader spawning and a large number of points to use. The red circle-slash means uncapturable not unattackable.


@Sea_JayUK Remember to follow the rules.  Your comment "The norm should be 'attacking uncaps is allowed' " is interesting to see how far we have come. A Server must announce the enforcement of spawnfences because they are not included the basic game rules and changes to the basic game must be posted. If they have no changes Servers are not required to announce the absence of spawnfences.

I agree, attacking uncaps should usually allowed.

There are usually defences at these locations (that are never manned) and its always the tossers that are too stupid to adapt to the situation that makes the whole thing so stressing and 'unfun' so i think it should be legal.

Im not a SK'r but as above if your team fails at team work then you should be grinded into pulp in the corner of the map.
BF2 was meant to be designed around team work and promoting people to work together.

Viable solutions that people that have a problem with attacking uncappables should ask for are:
1) Additional defensive assets at uncappables, increase the power of the existing ones.
2) Additional spawn points should be available one in the open the other concealed and artillary immune (similar to the carrier)

IMO its part of the game,
It the enemy excersises enough team work to push my team back to a wall ill still stand up and get raped like a man why?
You win some you loose some!
If it bothers me then i do the most LOGICAL thing.. I stop playing or join another server.

Attacking the uncaps is fair as long as ALL other flags are taken. I hate playing ghost town and seeing the enemy have all the main flags but not the 2 islands and they are coming into the uncap and tearing shit up.

When they are in the uncap 'fairly' i will spawn as spec ops and immediately run straight up to the enemy tank/apc/aa and blow it sky high(most of the time taking myself with it. I was going to die anyways so why give someone else a point.)

I don't think uncaps should be attacked, if its the last flag, hold the enemy there, they have a chance to try to get out and you can spam them on the way out, at least then they have a chance, direct assaults are so cheap if as they have no other option to spawn anywhere else, so they will without doubt end up spawning in front of one of you APC's guns.

No sport no skill involved, a proper stupid nub can getting onto a decent team and sit there pawning in that situation. No matter how good you think you are at this game if the rest of your team have no brain you are in a mess.

These situations normally occur when over afew rounds all the better players seem to gradually move onto one team!!!, yeah you guys rule hhhmmmmmm not!!!!, I've played on servers before where I've been the highest ranked player on my team!!!, I know you get some good low ranked players, but its a good indicator when your best team player has 8 for 23 and on the other team they have 34-5, and with the huge score your best player would be 12th if they where on the other team!.

Whenever this happens I just leave the server, as there's no point, so if uncap attack was allowed, if I had another spawn point then I wouldn't mind to much, but if it was the only option I'd leave the server.

Can you imagine all the crap nub hovering choppers over the bases just shredding anyone who spawns, yeah "its war every things fare", but I never knew that helos could take direct hits from a tank etc, damn!!.
Does that mean I hack and cheat, it war alls fare!! oh no..no its not!!

The only time I agree with camping a base, is if its the last one and its not a uncap and you are covering your attackers or holding the enemy there while you wait for reinforcements.

If its a uncap yeah you could not spawn, but then you have to sit and wait for how long before you get to play again, and considering some of the members on here have had ago about a TK denying someone 15sec's of their playing time.

Nothing worse than a idiot flying the chopper out to the carrier and hammering away, non of your team being able to run to the AA as they are camping it!!!, what would you pro's do?????.

Uncap should be attackable anytime. No reason to make it easier for the other team. If Im back there causing a problem come find me and own me. Or you can be a bitch and just kick me. I know its easier.

I don't think any caps should be attacked! Settle it with diplomacy.

uhh I'm sorry for killing some and wounding others but,,,,, could we talk this over with a pint?

Attacking uncaps (baseraping spawncamping whatever you choose to call it) is allowed unless otherwise spelled out in the rules. It is the original game design like it or not.

Hmmm, great comments so far, and the poll supports attacking uncaps! Came across a server today, type BAF in the server search to get it. It said 'Common Rules'...

I mean, WTF is that? Incidently got my ass sniped off when we ended up near MEC uncap on Oman so was never an issue but I'm interested in whether I would have got banned for attacing an uncap. Anyway, i feel alot better about attacking uncaps after this thread, 2/3 of players seem to support it so that little guy who spams KICK/BAN KICK/BAN ADMIN ADMIN when i antitank him in his base is probably in the minority.

Cheers guys...

See you on the battlefield!

There is a server with the following text:

Baseraping/attacking Uncap is allowed. IT'S WAR, DEAL WITH IT

That pretty much sums it up

It's not war. It's a computer game. Deal with it.
