Post: Spawn Tubing (There is NO delay timer)
10-03-2011, 06:49 PM #1
(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); One of the things I tested when I was at CODXP was whether or not spawn tubing was still possible, or if there was a delay timer like in Black Ops. After testing twice, I can confirm that there is NO TIMER, thus making it theoretically possible to spawn tube. I only played on the Dome map, and I didn't figure out the spawns, so I didn't know where to shoot the tube, but it seems to be quite clear that it is very much possible to do.*Now unless IW decides to include a timer before the game is released (unlikely), I must say, I am kind of glad you can still spawn tube.

Now before you go bashing on me, hear me out a little.*

I am glad that spawn tubing is returning, mainly because it adds to another thing you can do in the game. In Black Ops, spawn tubing was possible with the China Lake for the first few weeks the game came out. It was patched in the third update. I personally think it should of stayed because not only did you have to practically shoot the extremely useless launcher almost perfectly, you also were countered by the enemy players potentially using Flak Jacket...not to mention you don't unlock the China Lake until level 48. In my time trying to spawn tube, I probably killed only a total of 20 people out of the ~100 games I played in Hardcore Search and Destroy. With the ability to spawn tube, it added something unique and fun to do when you were bored, and added another factor of the game to worry about. Personally, I find this to be an acceptable, balanced, and fun strategy to do. The satisfaction you get when you get a kill is pretty awesome.*

In MW2, yes. Spawn tubing, and noob tubing altogether, was incredibly cheap and unbalanced. there was no way to counter it, people could get unlimited ammo using OMA, and you could just switch to a normal Silenced UMP class after you were done noob tubing at the spawn. With these factors in mind, it is very safe to say noob tubing was incredibly cheap and unbalanced.

But now, because of the new measures implemented to balance noob tubing as a whole, I feel like spawtubing is a mildly effective, fun, and amusing strategy which I personally think should stay in the game as it adds another thing to do for a user who may be bored of typical gun on gun gameplay.*

Please be open minded and give your honest opinion on this. I'd love to hear what you all think of this.

At least I can fight
If you don't want to get spawntubed then just run to cover at the start... spawntubers are in the line of fire of other spawntubers, so let them play their own game. If you don't wanna get involved, then leave and run away. Easy as that, it really is. If you get spawntubed twice in a row, then shame on you if you are mad about it

Are you high?
I don't really see the big deal about noob tubing, there is no OMA so its not gonna be over powered an you will probley only get 2 grenades maybe 3 with scavenger, just don't see why so many peop0le complain about it, everyone has access to it, either use it or shut up complaining about it
