Spawnkilling is the inevitable conclusion of any game where one team grossly outclasses or outnumbers the other. The solution must be a Matchmaking system that does a much better job of matching people of equal skill, doesn't pit big parties against randoms, and solves the quitting problem with either a much harsher penalty or drop-in replacements for quitters.

Coming from someone who is on here everyday, that statement was really ironic. 40% w/l halo 3 that's pretty good though.

Went straight to a life check once he realizes stat checks don't work on people who don't care.

I'm leaving for a party in like fifteen minutes. I can afford to burn some time making fun of fat, slobbering nerds like you.

He pulls a stat check in a life check, which makes absolutely no sense whatsoever.

You pulled the life check first by commenting on my social life nerd. Are you that retarded? BTW I posted picks before on way I box. I doubt I'm a fat nerd. Whatever makes you happy downie.

You shouldn't be dishing out stuff like that if you carn't step up to the table and say your better.
Except that I am.

Nice typo.


This is why I said you are bad. You can't call yourself better than anyone when clearly you aren't. You're so stupid.Learn how to use logic.

You pull a stat check like 30 seconds after I posted a response. Your social life must be sad if that's the only thing you can do. Then, for some inexplicable reason, you post my Halo 3 stats and you calculate my win percentage on this account with your life check, despite me making it abundantly clear that I really don't care all that much. Not a fat nerd? lol, yeah right.

Spawnkilling is...a strategy to say the least, but you should at least have a chance to fight back before being blown up by a banshee or a tank.

The absolute way to stop unfair spawn camping is simply to prevent large parties from matching up with people searching alone.

That being said, spawnkilling then can be considered a "strategy", and that it takes skill instead if the cheap method of playing nowadays.

That being said, if you're playing with other "randoms" and you get spawn killed by the opponent team, and they say you lack skill, clearly they are retards. But if you get spawn killed while playing in a team, that will actually take some skill.

well i liked all of your opinions on this...i just really hope 343 steps up and adds something to prevent spawn killing in the future

yea but they found out a way to make a full proof way to spawn kill by having someone behind you and in front of you so that if you try to attack the guy in front he assassinates you and vice versa for the other guy also

Hmm are you kidding me? Is it a very complex concept for you to understand you can like playing video games and have a social life? I mean if you must know, I have had a girlfriend for a year and a half and I'm pretty happy. I could go "party everyday" like you say and I used to, but who parties at 11am on a weekday. I'm guessing you haven't grown up yet. Maybe one day.

The spawnkilling in invasion is broken. But spawnkilling with team setups and spawn prediction is perfectly fine.

The invasion one is really funny though.

  • 11.08.2011 7:46 AM PDT

How do you get spawn killed in invasion? The spawns are dynamic (IE off of your teammate).

There is no solution to something that isn't a problem. Spawn killing has been an important part of Halo since the beginning. Who remembers the spawn traps on Hang 'em High?

If your spawn buddy quits or is dead too, you have only one choice of spawn in the first phase.

OP try Waypoint. Tryhards here will never admit that spawn killing exploits failures in the MM system.

  • 11.08.2011 7:58 AM PDT

Spawn killing is only truly fun when done on Blood Gulch with the Warthog. After years of that and countless ill-gotten 50-0 games as a result, all other spawn killing just has no flavor.

'Round and 'round the red base, till the bodies pile up the walls! Doubleplus good when the team steals the reds' warthog and the spawncamping doubles.

Spawn killing is not really that much of an issue. There are several spawn locations in Invasion and it's quite hard keeping them all completely locked down.

Besides, if the opposite team is completeky focused on raping the spawns, even one leak might lead to the team on offence capturing the territories.

If one can't get out of the spawns that's really one's own undoing. It's a whole different thing if half of one's team has quit, but in that case one should just quit to avoid wasting everyone's time.

TL;DR
If your spawns are completely locked and you don't suceed in making a coordinated push it is your own undoing. Get better, don't get spawn trapped.

  • 11.08.2011 8:05 AM PDT

-blam!- Was that actually blammed out? Or did I just type it? You'll never know.

Not without dynamic spawns, and as soon as that happens people will just cry about it.

  • 11.08.2011 8:06 AM PDT

Don't sweat the petty things, and don't pet the sweaty things.

I've never had a problem with spawn trapping with even teams. The bigger problem is when a few people quit. Then it can get ugly.

Your opponents trying to spawn trap you in invasion can be a gift. 1 or 2 clever players can get to the objective and have it down before your opponents can get back in position. Have won games against superior opponents that way.
