Realistic use of assets, presumably. Gunships are just that, so that takes Suez' roof out, and the others are either glitched sites or rely on a chance effect that doesn't make too much sense considering the "realism" of sorts that we're trying to get to. That's my (very groggy) interpretation.

I don't believe so. What SL in their right mind would place a spawn beacon on an exploding crate with the expectation that it will stay there and the crate won't explode? I would assume the original intent was to get the beacon air born.

Not sure what the first poster meant, but my post in relation to the crate was using it as a "ladder" or so. Jumping onto it and then placing a beacon on a ledge that you cannot reach without the exploding crate intact. Not actually putting the beacon on the exploding crate itself.

I see, I'm corrected.

Oops, I'm wrong (always a first time for everything). I misread the post as using the crate to place the actual beacon, not jumping on the crate to place the beacon. I read it as a physics exploit. My apologies, Eroak is correct.

*BUMP*

This is just a friendly reminder. Yesterday I had to inform two TGers, seperately, that being on rooftops is not against server rules. Even if they land there via a beacon's pod it does not automatically violate the "no rooftop beacons" rule - it is only if the beacon was put in an inaccessible place that the rule is broken.

So is putting a beacon near a roof so you get on the roof ok as long as the beacon isn't on the roof (can be done 100% of the time on central on gibby)?

Yes, that's legit.

We should have a spawn-on-beacon-only night. That would fun. Rules are, you can only spawn on beacons. Think of the tactics involved!

Only if it is Awesomely Awesome

It would be more like "awe-some body took out the beacon"

It's a good idea if your idea of a good time is getting camped by a squad of Vosses pointed at you as soon as you land....
