Berlin Campaign: Spawn Camping an issue?

Mess Room
1

Hey guys,
after playing a lot of Berlin the past few days, i can’t help but wondering:

I have experienced the german side rush over the River in Königsplatz, annihilating the Russian Forces and even building Rallys there. I have experienced Tanks basically driving up to the russian spawn point (Main) with infantry support on the train escort map.

Both cases, the russians didn’t stand a chance of even getting out of their spawn due to being completely taken apart by explosives and HE shells right after spawning in. Those who got out of the spawn then got blasted by the infantry.

What’s your opinion on that? Is there enough spawn protection or how should this be countered?

Spawn Camping? in Moltke bridge? Train Escort map? Driving to their spawn? By Axis Berlin?

That is utterly ridiculous, I’ve never heard or have done such thing

From the games I’ve been in where the Soviets have made it past the bridge, the winning formula I’ve witnessed is to push as aggressively and quickly as possible into the bridge.

If you are really lucky:

  1. someone will spawn a tank (or 2) to help suppress the German armor.
  2. someone will start raining mortars or arty down on the German side of the bridge to suppress their initial push

I’ve been in games on both sides of that bridge. It isn’t easy to breakout, but it can be done.

The armor spawns are too tightly constrained, IMO, but ALL of Berlin isn’t very vehicle friendly…there’s way too much crap on the ground and apparently the 40-ton tanks can’t simply crush or brush the debris aside…for some reason?

Lol you are basically complaining about the best strategy to defeat the soviets on the bridge map. As the axis if you want to hold first cap you literally have to push across the bridge and build rallies on the soviets side of the bridge…thats how you prevent first cap from being lost. Axis team has to play incredibly aggressive on this first point, otherwise the point is almost always lost to arty, mortars, and superior high capacity mag SMG’s.

If a soviet team can’t handle axis rallies on their side of the bridge then they deserve to loose, because they suck. The bridge is very easy to take as the soviets, I’ve done it numerous times, and I’ve played many matches as the axis where the bridge was taken within like 15 seconds of me spawning in.

It’s impossible to spawn kill on the map because 20 feet pass the bridge is greyzone.

So what was happening to you was the axis was preventing you from getting on the bridge and you considered that spawn camping.

one trick to make every axis player mad - load every soldier with large grenade pouch/fill the slots with anti inf grenades/exp packs and throw them in the enemies direction while switching characters after one runs out… The best allies players i’ve seen dont even bother with their guns. 10/10 u wont have a spawn camping issue anymore
