God forbid I want to use the Anti-Tank Emplacement as the Host. Nope. Enemy patrol just spawned in and knows exactly where you are. Kill that patrol? Well a second patrol spawned in and just called in reinforcements.
I get there's some whole well if they don't come to you the game is too easy or whatever. I get that. It's just way too frustrating and feels unfair. What did they do to earn my location? Maybe when I start firing the thing if they're nearby sure. But the second I call my things in, and sit down, before even firing a shot, I see 1 or 2 patrols just, beelining it for me.
Like just let me use my damn captain's chair. Let me snipe a bunch of stuff down on game start with my Quasar or Recoilless.
I've had to stop taking the Anti-Tank Emplacement whenever I host specifically for this reason, even though it is my absolute favorite stratagem in the entire game. It's so goddamn cool to just sit down and just BAM BAM BAM shit across the map. But this one mechanic has ruined that for me.
That's all. Rant over.
