Armor Lock and INVASION

Don’t you hate it when playing Invasion and somebody comes into your territory and ALs inside of it. From my recolection this was taken out of objective gametypes for a reason…WHY LEAVE IT IN INVASION…IMO Disable all AA’s when in an active territory or something…this can NOT continue. Discuss

i could be mistaken but i am under the impression that AL was only available in the 3rd round of Invasion? ergo, negating your premise of people coming into the capture zone and AL’ing to run the time down.

maybe i’m playing the wrong Invasion…

i lol’d at this

but AL is actually avlible in the 2nd phase

by the Loadout name “Guard”

in my experience, ALing in the capture territories dosen’t happen often

> i could be mistaken but i am under the impression that AL was only available in the 3rd round of Invasion?

nope its available on the second phase for the spartans.

and to the OP, i would have to disagree. How else do you expect me to avoid the insane amount of stickies that are flying at me?

Armour Lock is dumb in general. There’s no point in debating where it’s dumb when it’s common knowledge it’s an all-around-failure. That’s like counting individual blades of grass on a field in order to determine whether or not the field has alot of grass.

I don’t mind it, it can make an unexpected turn in events. Also you do know if you jump in the objective while they are in it, they can’t capture it.

i dont mind it, its the shot gun that yoinks me off!

ooooooh for the spartans, i see! i was thinking Elites for some reason. sorry!

I think the Armour Lock nerf should be implemented into Invasion for this sole reason.

This, unless I can rush before the elites get there it’s pretty much the only way I can even attempt to get the 2nd phase on spire against sticky spammers

If there choosing AL over sprint then there speed has decreased a lot so they only get like half the attempts at taking the territory so I see it as balanced.

Dodge, shoot and die just like everyone else.

I think you are wrong but I need to play a few games to make sure…There has been games where I am the invisable eliete waiting for someone to come in and as SOON as the get in…BAM AL an the time starts decresing that is at least 8 seconds that I could have saved by just killing the guy/girl. I think AL should always be saved until the last wave/round whatever. Hologram should replace AL in the 2nd wave…thoughts/suggestions?

Cloaking in the objective is always a bad idea because people expect it. This is why they AL spam the minute they get in (they know you’re hiding there). Try using the unconventional approach, such as hiding slightly outside of the objective, near the edge of the spire. The spartans will think you’re inside and then you slip a plasma knife in their head.

if you are inside the objective at the same time as them, the counter does not go down, they can only capture the objective whilst they are the only ones in the designated area.
