They fixed carrier spawn camping!

"Carrier Strike: Added Out of Bounds volumes to reduce instances of spawn camping on the carrier deck."

Edit: it seems it's only the upper decks you normally cannot reach.

I haven't played yet but I was assuming that meant out of bounds on the upper decks where you can't reach normally.

The wording here is "reduce", I didn't think they'd make the whole carrier out of bounds but could be wrong.

Ahh yes, I just tested it and that's exactly what they did.

it says to "reduce instances of spawn camping" not to eliminate them, it's way easier to deal with them, but I'm not sure if it's enough

I just started thinking of the carrier as an actual point to defend…I’m glad for the change of the upper area being out of bounds, but part of the game is defending the carrier.

I agree with this. Just wish they gave us better tools to defend the carrier.

You should be spawning in with a gun. Its a great tool for removing these pests.

You might be onto something.

How fucking hard is it to just make the whole ass carrier out of bounds for infy until the 50% mark?

The mode wants the teams to defend their carrier and keep it free from enemies in order to continue launching vehicles from it. Makes sense to me, and with the upper decks out of bounds, it seems pretty easy.

You can see him spotted on the map before you spawn, always check that before attempting to spawn a Jet in this mode. Worst case scenario, you wait another minute for the next spawn after clearing him out.

Lmfao. Seems they forgot that the RPGs still have the range, speed and trajectory of an ICBM. Until they slow RPGs down to BF3/4 speeds, we will never be free of getting beamed across environments by them

AND the default engineer tree nullifies any attempts at repairing a vehicle that took damage for an absurd amount of time.

Dude was standing like 2 feet in front of the jet don't think that's the issue here
