as far as I know that is worth a ban because its considered exploiting

Its grid camping. Doesnt matter spawn with or without preview.

Its an exploit, they should be swarmed by guards , but its not working.

Anyway, you should follow this rule first before accusing someone Spy(raynor009).

Reinforcments are bugged there, there is only one entrance - thus its bug exploiting. Next time people will see the interior of some cells. ;)

There are just a few (too weak) guards and the reinforcments system doesnt work there.

I've seen that reinforcements in the Hub once. This is a HUGE swarm, so I'm curious - is there a chance to kill all of them, so no reinforcements will arrive?

Yea the number that will spawn is large but not infinite. Of course if you mean in one battle, you can't kill all of them once and forever, the reinforcements will be restocked eventually as far as I remember.

Ok, thanks for answer.
One more thing I want to know is - how long does it takes to get another swarm of reinforcements?

After the first wave it's something about 5 minutes, if I remember the testing sessions correct.

I dont like Pks., but on other way, something happened in Oldtown... They gave character to this part of city. Even in european cities (considered as safe in comparsion with Free Town, Kabul,...) are zones that are not safe at all (Žižkov in Prague). And of course, there is always way how to prevent this situation (town preview).

If you mean with "giving live to the part of the city" with "standing around on entrance grid and killing everyone who enters" then yes. Else it's just lame grid camping and will be punished the next time it's seen there.

But I bet they don't burst you with an Avenger or melt you with a Plasma rifle in Žižkov.

Off topic: and also, was that "even in european cities" part necessary?

And I bet that you wouldn't respawn if they did...

Oh right, forgot that suburban thugs don't use tier 3 weapons because of that. Otherwise they would, yeah.

If you wanna feel like in Žižkov, go to New Reno.
Oldtown is the very important part of the Hub. Trade, profession, Sad Wife quest... campers blows this features... sad it is.

 This is still only game, so in Zizkov, somebody could rob you or beat you, but not kill you..

 There is brown exit grid near Market.. so you can create tent near HUB, store there your stuff, then very quickly check and visit Oldtown and if you would be killed, you can take your stuff back.

 I think that it is naive to think that city parts would fulful same purpose like in F1 or F2 game. Its natural evolution.. i agree that this is for someone very annoying, but everybody has to get his first experience about Wasteland is harsch..

 I would rather see bulletin board function, so there could be ingame written information about each city.. "Beware of Oldtown robbers", "Watch out bazaar suicide killers",... . It could be written by GMs only..

Best part was when they made alts just to go Hub to rage and cry because they were banned for something they knew it was bannable  :-*

it's not rly fun to ban because of this kind of action ! Do you already visit the oldtown of your city ? Cause i never sawn a secrured oldtown in real ^^

When you go in the oldtown of your city you are not instant kill by mercs.

There is no spawn point in my real oldtown, guess it makes all the difference.

yes and i never sawn a guy with a plasma rifle, protected cities are already boring, think it's good to have some rapable place in... just my point of view
