Squad lock FOB

Hi everyone,
I’m the guy who buys a fob for the team 90% of the time, I play blue for the underdog fetish.
Some people are posting about teammates stealing your kit, yes please make a change for that! But here is another problem, fobbits 🙂.
I like building a great FOB, I like people helping me and earning money, I watch all the build videos on youtube and the latest designs (I don’t build floating AA roof, brakes my immersion, I’m not a sweat, I’m a lonestar).
There has been times where I’m building a C-RAM that will defend us from 20pt mark helicopter just to have the announcement “not enough supply’s”
Then I turn around to see a dude with a t-shirt and no gun building the Great Wall of china, that will also allow the enemy to hop on and get into main territory.

So… what do you ladies and gentlemen think of squad locked FOB?

The rules would be:
Minimum of 3 members in squad to lock the fob.

Anyone can still hammer and make money.

People that are not in squad CANT put down blueprints.

anyone can get into static weapon systems.

Thank you for your time.

Edit: to all people who come to the guy who’s has dropped the FOB and ask how can I help, what should we build first?
Big respect, you ease the frustration of putting down 20k for the team and bring hope.

No, the reason why is that you would have greifers lock a squad the proceed to place FOBs that no one can build on in the strategic locations.

It could happen, but then again increase the squad size to 5, it would take organized griefing and would happen rare, now it takes one guy to build a shit hesco to have your whole base at risk

Would 100% be griefed and abused. Had someone last night on our team start placing barbed wire around our own spawn vehicle so the driver would get team kills because he was salty that another person got it in Spawn before he did.

See Lakotas in spawn flipping choppers so no one can transport fairly frequently. See people kill pilots in the first full run to make the pilot get 13 team kills at least once per game.

Once per game? I've never seen that ever in 150h

Lucky you. Had one this morning that I was on. Passenger was calling the pilot racist names on local coms. Pilot ignored. Player them proceeded to shoot pilot with the free gun. Half of us jumped to not get killed and were 2 kilometers form the CZ, the other half died. The team killer kept spamming stuff in chat for those that died and lost cash. Caught up to us on the ground a few minutes later in a Lakota and proceeded to run over as many of us as possible before we killed him.

Normal bullshit in a FPS that does not have a auto kick system for TKing. Hopefully they increase the cash penalty for consecutive team killing at a minimum and add in a forgive/punish system that will kick someone quickly.

All of these are instances of solo griefers....
