Subject: How can Bungie have been so stupid?

Why, why, WHY would Bungie decide to put dynamic spawns on Narrows? It's simply the stupidest thing I can imagine.

Yes, I imagine that the spawn killing may have gotten ridiculous with static spawns, but at least that rewarded the team that got control of top-mid, not having 4 people spawn on their ass when half the team's dead or on the other side of the map.

I can't believe Bungie didn't look for another solution. Honestly, one just popped into my head, why not just add something to obstruct the sightlines from top-mid to the spawn points at flag and lift so that you can't just constantly spawn snipe? Sure there'd probably end up being problems with that but as a game developer, Bungie should have looked at possible alternate solutions before deciding 'herp dynamic spawns, if you lost map control its k u can spawn and shoot ur enemy in the ass"

I'm sorry America is busy helping others in the world and actually making a difference.

Something Canada will never do.

Yeah, I know. That's why I put the past tense in.

Huh, I still remember when that update came and these forums were flooded with people complaining about that.

Matches that would have otherwise been blowouts are much closer because of the derp spawns on Narrows. I remember a match where our entire team was set up inside red court and we killed the other team that were setting up on top mid. Out of nowhere, the two guys that we killed spawned right behind us in red stage while we were all one-shot. Such bs.

For some people, it's because of this.

Just be glad the dynamic spawning actually works right. In Reach, it uses a dynamic spawn; and you still spawn in front of an enemy (or they spawn behind you).

Just keep a guy in the attics, works wonders. Either that or just play MLG

That happens in H3.

An eye for an eye makes the whole world blind. A sword for a sword, well that's just messy.

There were massive complaints of spawn trapping, so they changed it.

Yeah, there was also massive complaints about the BR and its horribly random burst being "overpowered" (LOL)

now look at Reach.

Nothing always goes as planned, all you can do is move forward and improve your technique.
Exactly. Bungie should have moved forward and figured out a better way to fix overpowered spawn trapping other than derp dynamic spawns.
