Warzone Firefight needs to improve defending.

During the beta, I noticed how the defending the base objective was basically assaulting the base filled with enemies. There wasn’t much defending involved. I propose a better solution.

Before the round officially starts, it should notify players that you need to defend the base then direct at least four players to stand inside said base. Once those four are inside, it begins a brief five second countdown timer for, as long as they remain inside, counts to zero. Once it hits zero, the round officially starts. This would allow players to actually have a proper feeling of preparing for defending an objective. The enemies would then spawn OUTSIDE and try to get in.

As long as an enemy remains inside the base, a non-resettable timer will countdown. Once that timer reaches zero you lose for that objective and the round ends immediately.

Thoughts? I just want the defending the base objective to actually feel like a defending objective.

343 acknowledged that and tol us they would fix it

Very good point and one I hadn’t really thought of. Defending the base was definitely the hardest objective and I kept running back to the garage in preparation just in case that’s what we had to do. Would be much better though if they did spawn outside instead of 8 Knights just appearing inside and dying immediately.

Don’t forget that enemies can still capture the base while you’re inside… during my last Warzone FF match, I was covering my team from the outside to distract the Knights who were guarding the entrance zealously. Even as I saw my team move around inside killing everything they could the capture was still going up… :confused:
