    Nah. It's merely one of the few good hexes in Planetside 2.

    Even though I'm sick to death of The Crown, I've definately had some of the best battles there.

    The Crown
    Bastion
    Haven Outpost
    Splitpeak Pass
    ...and a few others are really good base designs.
    Can't wait until the new "lattice" system so we get to fight at other bases more often.

    I dunno, I've had some great times at the skydock. Setting traps, waiting for red to come after me

    *Edit*

    If you include TI alloys in that crown "map" then you have a better case.
    It's fun shooting turrets while my team moves in.

    I would rather not own the crown, but I have more fun assaulting it.

    The crown and skydock mesa. Last night at skydock was incredible.

    Is this thread sarcasm or the dumbest thread ever?

    If i could choose, it would be Vanu Archives defense, or Bastion.
    J908 Impact Site is good aswell for its unique landscape alone.

    My least favorite is attacking The Crown, and towers in general.
    And Biolabs. People just camping inside/outside shields all day long unless you get lucky.

    Miller. We where about to get completely wiped off indar and capped skydock on the brink of losing indar. That was the only hex we held outside the warpgate. After that the entirety of TR on Miller was up there fighting off all of VS and NC, **** was so cash :)
  15. Fink_NC

    I think it's the latter. But we can turn it in to our favorite places to fight on indar if you want :)

    The later, caused by sitting at the crown for too long.

    I'm going to be sad when they move our warp gate again.
    This is my strategy. I don't mind spoiling it, maybe someone can use it.

    Ok, first, wait for there to be no activity at red ridge or the skydock, but make sure to have the nursery (key).
    • Fly to red ridge as an inf, and ditch the plane. (I usually run it over on the next part)
    • Hack the vehicle terminal and grab a Sunday.
    • Deploy the sunday for second and change to eng.
    • Put tank mines on the ramp (they will be coming after you from here)
    • Drive to the skydock and put it in the canyon right outside. Get as close to the edge of the map as you can with out getting too close, and deploy (your not getting it back out again unless you have points in the hill climb)
    • Switch to inf again and run up to the jump pad, place a trip mine there. This will be handy when you take it over, and don't have time to come back.
    • Go off the jump pad to the skydock.
    • Your not going to cap it yet. Go put another trip mine at the spawn door.
    • Hack the weapon terminal outside the spawn room, and switch to your preferred class
    • Go cap the point and hide behind the boxes closest to the spawn room.
    • Call your buddy's cus there's about to be one heck of a fight
    Yes, I know, a bit overkill, but it works great. And really makes red mad :)

    IMHO, that AS-steal-the-missiles-whatever-it-was-called from UT was better.
