Wza: March on Stormbreak a warning

Games Halo 5: Guardians
1

Warning to all ye who play this map.

Fireteams have found a way to farm you like fresh carrots, or something.

The fireteam will bait you into taking the objectives giving just enough resistance to build up req level, then when you’re at the core phase will trap you in a spawns unable to do anything really. You could spawn an air vehicle and immediately get shot down or spawn a low req level vehicle and hide in the first base.

Not trying to call out the fireteam who farmed us but i wanted to show video proof

Mods, please don’t Locke this. I believe the community -the ones on waypoint- deserve to know about this.

Unfortunately, I think they will lock this. You kinda are calling out people in way by using Theater. There is an option to remove the little bar showing the Spartan’s gamertag so it looks like as if you were playing a third person shooter

I’ve had this happen far too many times on this map, by a few of those very players even. Once I realize that’s what’s happening I don’t respawn until it forces me too, report them all, then collect my req points and move on.

I like not respawning since they get far less kills on me that way and their reqs are somewhat wasted. I know reqs don’t mean much to higher level players like that but if I can prevent them from getting another 10+ kills on me while I browse waypoint then I win.

Sounds almost similar to a strategy I had ages ago about letting the 1st bases be capped then just defend the core easily cause they would not have enough req levels. I was laughed at when I suggested idea of even being pausible.

  1. Stormbreak (or the WZA version of it, summit) has always been a defender sided map. I’m not saying it’s good to farm, but this is nothing new. People have done it with Gauss hogs as well. Not sure why the attacker spawned haven’t been fixed yet.

  2. Nobody spawned in lasers? Or anything? not even a camo shotgun or camo fuel rod? Or any camo for that matter? I looked at the clip and the spawns didn’t seem THAT bad. It looked like you had a decent opportunity to make a camo push. (Yes, I Know, 2 guys with nornfangs, but direct shots instantly kill, and the marines were sitting near them.)

  3. Even though people are saying this is bad and all, 343i did say they were cracking down on those who were using the 12 man Fireteam exploit in WZ. (Which, I don’t agree with, I think a party v party system would work much better, but besides the point) you could just forward this to 343I and hope that they do something about it.
    Not saying it’s a good idea to “name and shame” just saying that the names might help 343i look into it.

You mean they let you cap three bases? Or they trapped you at your core? This could happen on any map.

Man that sucks I’ve never been farmed before but there really isint a fix for this unless 343 fixes the spawns

I’m thinking if you die writhing the same spawn 2 times it places you inside the base.
