Firebase Killing.

With the obscene number of firebases and their staying power also obscene, I suggest a change.

SUPPORTS DON'T CRY PLEASE.

Increase the money obtained by killing the firebase to somewhere between 25 and 50. 10 dollars is just too little for a turret that is stronger than a lazah blazah and that can be placed anywhere, i.e. next to the annihilator.
Between 25 and 50 should depend on hack and the actual firebase level. 25 would be unhacked level one and 50 would be hacked level 3 and level 3.

I feel that the only problem with the firebase is the lack of incentive to kill it. The incentive is mostly negative, KILL THE FIREBASE OR DIE AN EMBARRASSING DEATH WHILE THE SUPPORT TAUNTS MENTIONING A JETSKI and then you get a measly ten bucks. Might as well go kill a blackjack instead.

This is a team-oriented problem, and not necessarily a problem with the firebase itself. The problem is the want to kill it, for it is too low right now.

i dont think this is a problem, maybe put the money up to $15 but i can easily destroy a firebase if i want to

my entire point.

firebase killing takes a long time if there's a support on it, along with bots and other pros, but the killer gets only 10 dollars and assists are only 7. Nobody wants to.

I probably kill 5-10 firebases a game with tank/gunner and they die very quickly.

Supports would also love this change, since they could just throw their firebase off the map for 25-50 dollars.

You can do that!!! OMG! I hardly ever use the support fire base (don't like baby sitting or I just drop it in the base as an extra turret) I really proferr meleeing bots and healing other pros if there decent.

You should currently get 10 for throwing it off the map.

How in the w. . .

Forget it, I'm not going to ask.

Heh, ima try this when I get home. :lol:

Firebases don't need a nerf. As you get better they become less of an issue. Every class has a way to destroy the firebase, even while it is being healed.

Assassin: Shurikens.
Sniper: Flak + sniper rifle (explosive shots might even make the support run away)
Assault: Use your rifle. It works even better with RoF endorsements.
Gunner:Spin up, then peek around a corner and blast it.
Tank: Product grenade it so it will be blinded, then use your jet gun on it. Works even better with a RoF endorsement.
Support: Airstrike. If you can manage to get into shotgun range (by peaking around corners) a few shells will destroy it. But seriously, airstrike.

I usually buy an ejector to kill a firebase, most support are stupid and put them where ejectors are. now i kinda hate that i spend $50 to only earn $10, its stupid. i would definitely vote for increasing the amount gained as sometimes its even harder to kill a firebase than a real player.

that's not the problem.
it's the want to kill the firebase, not how.
the time it takes to kill a firebase could be time spent pushing bots, killing pros, etc.

To me the only reason to kill a FB is to help your team. FBs kill pros and bots.

That alone should be reason enough to want to destory one.

Randoms don't want to help your team, they want money and kills. This is so randoms would actually kill firebases.

True.

I don't know what to tell ya then.

I don't get it. Who wouldn't want to kill a firebase?

Exactly. I see one, I take it out ASAP.

I agree, gentlemen.

I treat one as any other member of the opposing team, only stationary. But regardless, it MUST be destroyed immediately.

randoms.
they just hate having to kill one of em.

Although you only get $10 for destroying a firebase you are also stopping the Support from making easy money. Anyone with the overall objective in mind can make easy money, the key is to get the enemy team to waste their money on essentials that keep them in the game. MNC is all about "gettin' dat money" but it is also about making the enemy waste that money somehow, in a way.

Even more better is using Gold crit. with the Jet Gun.

Gold crit I love that ****.
anyway
tell that to the randoms.
this isn't really me with a firebase problem, I think the solution is to make everyone that sux magically better at this game.
