    Announcement: Rule update. (Please read)

    Please note a amendment to server rule 2 (UCB rule descruiption)

    Old rule states:
    Quote Originally Posted by Server Rule 2
    2) Players are not allowed into the enemy UCB for any reason other than for the sole purpose of destroying the enemy's assets (artillery/uav/radar). Restricted acts include:
    1. Entering the UCB with the intent on killing a disoriented spawning player.
    2. Entering the UCB with the intent of stealing any vehicle.
    3. Flying over the UCB for air raids / bombing runs.
    4. Entering the UCB with the intent to lay mines / c4.
    These acts are restricted not to deny valid real-life tactics, but to ensure the quality of game play. Rule #2 must be a simple and clear rule that is easily adminstered and does not vary on a map-by-map basis.
    Server rules now states:

    [07/15/08] Amendment: Titan game modes are exempt form this rule.
    These acts are restricted not to deny valid real-life tactics, but to ensure the quality of game play. Rule #2 must be a simple and clear rule that is easily adminstered and does not vary on a map-by-map basis.
    Q. What does this mean?

    A. This means that any grounds/assets may be taken and occupied in the entire map


    Q. Can I take any vehicle?

    A. Yes.


    Q. Can I EMP, shell, Gunship bomb these areas?

    A. Yes.


    Q. Does this mean I can spawn camp?

    A. No. Spawn camping is still considered a phyics exploit of disorientation of a player


    Q. What if I spawn and keep getting killed by the same player?

    A. Report it with time and name of the offense. We'll then check the BR for spawn camping.


    Q. Is Wake Island assault, conquest, or titan?

    A. Wake Island is considered conquest. There are no silos or needed assets at the PAC titan.


    Q. Does this effect UCBs of other game modes?

    A. No. The wording was chosen so it only effects titan game modes without any loopholes to other game modes.



    This ruling isn't open for debate, but feel free to discuss tactics or ask us questions if you cant understand something.

    Thanks for the heads-up. And thanks to the admin team for hammering this one out; it can't have been the easiest rule to get straight. You guys really do a great job.

    Thanks Arithea, we put a rule in place originally that we thought would be best but givin some play time we decided it was best for tactical game play and for admin sanity to just make the spawn point under the titan a open space. Thanks to the community for their input, it helped us make a final decision as a team.

    I apologize to Heavy for becoming a victum of uncertainty of the rule myself. After that mistake and not knowing I was correct for my peers on TS, I had to push for a completed answer and we agreed upon this.

    shockwave is a privatly funded project, that means they can use house rules that can include different UCB rules. They must keep code of conduct though.

    Well that settles things...

    I was there when the question came up in TS, it was really confusing to a lot of players. I'm glad that things have been changed and I think this will be a lot less head aches for the Admin team. You guys work hard enough as it is.
