I suggest stopping spawn-camping by making spawn invincibility also give you invisibility. This would let you get away before the enemies can get a lock on to you. Also, this would make the COOP vs AI mode slightly more difficult.
I suggest stopping spawncamping by banning all who do it, way more efficient!
Well, it could help but these genious players would spawn & attack anyways so they die. It would not reduce the rate of spawncamp at all.
Lets not ruin perfect good things just to get the broken vs AI mode to work. It’s 8 human players vs 8 bots with crappy ships. What did people expect was to happen?
- for this idea. Spawn camping is bad and especially with a handful points where you can spawn is it more of a disadvantage as an advantages(had it a few times, that I spawned 5km away from my team at another spawn point and was in the middle of the enemy team and couldn’t go away fast enough as guard/frigate).
While it wouldn’t remove this spawning fact, but it would remove WHERE you spawned at all and would give an advantage against those campers.
Funfact: Theoretically you can get banned for spawn camping.
(6.13 It is forbidden to attack the opponents at their own spawn points.
6.14 It is forbidden to publicly announce one’s intention to attack the opponents at their own spawn points. Spawn farm — is methodical elimination of the opposing team instead of ending the battle by completing the main objective.)
I just don’t know why they define “Spawn farm”, but never use this word somewhere else then in the definition. Also they are saying that all kind of attacking enemies in their spawn is not allowed without exceptions.
That rule makes no sense. In team battle the main objective is to kill the enemy. What if there are no enemies left, except at their spawn? Then you can’t go for objectives and could be banned for this also.

Noone reads the rules, so noone reports player for attacking them at spawn(excpet me just to get the GM’s some work but i have never seen someone getting banned(and the rules state that you either get banned or chat muted, there are no warning points or so)).
So many GM are breaking these rules so often(I have only seen Rakza and Agressor yet)
