Re: Base-raping

Hi guys.
I just wanted to know what's the "status" of the base-ravaging after the latest update (thanks, bikes, bigger maps,etc...).
I quit Starhawk due to base-ravaging so if things are getting better I might jump in again and give it a last chance.
Thank you in advance.

Re: Base-raping

Base raping was always going to be obvious when they made hawks invincible to rockets via making a simple wiggle of the sticks enough to evade all 8 rockets you can carry.

It's not rocket science.

Re: Base-raping

Shooting down a hawk with an RPG is quite easy in my opinion. The hawks need to fly down and lower, when they want to A2G people, so you just get a lock on and shoot, when they're close. It's pretty much impossible to avoid, or even chaff that rocket. 

Baserapes in Starhawk shouldn't even be called baserapes. Any pressure I've been in felt much lighter, than those slaughterhouses in Warhawk. 

You also have the beam turrets to aid your team and they defo make an impact. 

Another thing is, that your hawks can't be damaged, because they don't spawn on the battlefield. You just quickly buy a hawk, take off and have like 24 swarm missiles armed in it, which is not bad.

Re: Base-raping

i dont have a problem with enemy forces attacking and wiping out a base with superior forces. what i do not like is when they start putting down guns and buildings into your own base so every time you drop in , your instantly killed.

 

This has got to change, a simple fix . DONT let enemy forces build anything within the other bases influence.

thats all , cant be hard to do. but if they dont fix this problem ,it will be a very short lived game when released.

Re: Base-raping

[ Edited ]

A idea for base raping fixes cud be get better at playing the game so base rapes dont happen ?

 

if a player dies multiple times in a short span inside his own base A small immune to dmg buff when a player spawns so he has time to move or do somthing ?

 

Limit the number/types of buildings the enemy can spawn in your base ?

 

A smart bomb to kill all enemy forces and structures within your base if a base rape situation is deteced for a prolonged period ?

 

erm... im out of ideas for now any suggestions ?
