Im hoping DICE implements a way to keep any gun or any vehicle from being able to fire when someone is sitting somewhere that would be considered out of bounds for the opposite team.
This is for you, spawn camping vehicle scrubs
The out of bounds for enemy in friendly terrottory is implemented to prevent spawn camping a base. Removing out of bounds means that enemy squads tinker and steal friendly assets. Preventing shooting from own base is even more unfair. You can shoot in but can’t shoot outside!
OOB didn’t exist prior to the BFBC2 Nam expansion, and large hallways as ‘maps’ didn’t exist prior to BF3 (Metro, then Locker on BF4). The people that hide in the spawns are cowards at best. If the flags get all capped, you fight harder. You haven’t played BF until your base is over run anyway.
I’m pretty sure OOB is to ease up the team so they aren’t constantly getting attacked. When you’re getting all capped, it’s rage inducing trying to get a flag back. Having no OOB promotes spawn camping for the enemy team which obviously is a bad drop to removing OOB. SO would you rather have a single camping AA or enemies constantly killing and stealing your vehicles so you have NO chance to recover? I think we all know what the answer is…
i always wonder if people actually think thing through when they make threads like this.
just because some take advantage advantage of this does not mean it serves a real purpose.
gonna be real awkward to base a team and they cant even fire back lol.
removing OOB is even going to make things much worse if you are able to sit in their spawn and kill people the second they spawn in , not to mention how much easier it will be to steal vehicles that way.
Odds are if they capped all your flags they were going to win anyways. Removing the OOB will just speed up the ticket drain with kills anyways. You do know BF didn’t always have OOB bases right?
it will also create a lot more imbalance which is something you of all people should really care about.
what do you think all those people that only care about K/D will do if its possible to go into the enemy spawn to steal vehicles and kill the enemy while they cant fire back?
i do care about balance.
With an OOB base most teams result to sniping or pop shotting from the base and never even trying to advance. Once all flags are capped and a team is pushed back into their base, they tend to stay there and shoot , and since the other team cannot advance any farther. They sit there at the edge forming a wall that’s near impenetrable.
If allowed to push into base the wall becomes scattered, and the pinned down team has the chance to push through. It’s not a deal breaker for me one way or the other.
I’ve played BF games where the base was OOB and where it was not. Have you? And I prefer the base to not be OOB. It’s just an opinion.
No, I never said REMOVE the boundary that makes it OOB, so relax. Keep it, its necessary. Even if they just remove the ability to shoot from vehicles in your own base that would be fine. Let people fire personal weapons, I hadn’t considered the spawn raping that some of you brought up. My apologies.
But purposely hiding out, in your base, in a tank/lav/maa/any vehicles that can shoot, is complete & total bag behavior & shouldn’t be an option to those who unabashedly abuse such an exploit.
To solve the problem of stealing enemy assets, just make it impossible to get in them until they’re past the OOB boundary.
OR, someone said remove OOB altogether so that if one team caps all the flags, they can take the base & end the game before tix run out. Thats actually a pretty cool concept.
How exactly is a team going to push through when they are pinned in their base by the enemy , who also stole all their vehicles?
Heck how are they going to do that when they cant even fire back when in their base?
BF is not the only game who as a base and uses spawns and such.
COD the easiest way to get kills was going into their spawn and killing everyone the second they spawned in giving them no chance to even fire a bullet.
heck in WAW i was a pro at getting the tank on the enemy side and then by having all tanks spawn trapping the enemy and killing the 2nd they spawned in lel.
Let me be clear though.
i could care less if they remove the OBB or not cause either way i will do what i always do.
i only hope people know what they are asking for cause this is simply just going to be in favor of the really good players and K/D players cause its going to make farming that much easier.
i can already see those armors players from the top comp platoons feasting on this lel.
