Fallujah cache locations.

[Rissien]

Since .87 in Insurgency there has been a seeming increase in caches spawning near each other. Sometimes its fine in that if one goes down, Insurgents are already near another one. Other times its rediculous when an overrun cache goes down and another spawns in the next building for a free take down.

Mere hours ago We had SIX caches spawn in the E-3/E-4 area in a row. They dropped arty on the first, narrowly missing the second and third when the first went down. Same round there was one cache that they found nearly instantly because the LAV saw players spawning. It was overran and taken down, only for another to spawn in the same building so that too went down. The game literally gave the US 8 caches, they won with some 180 tickets.

Yeah I had the same problem playing Operation Archer a few days ago. Our cache at the hilltop was about to be overrun and was swarming with US. I just barely managed to get out with my Enfield. As soon as that cache went down another spawned exactly where the last one had been. I have also seen this before that day on Fallajuh West as well. This should be fixed if at all possible.

I noticed that too, hell even lost a cache when an enemy squad stumbled upon one while looking for the blue one...

I still wish they also made a cache not visible unless its in range. Would deter alot of spyz

After playing as INS awhile, you start noticing a pattern or you would see people drive right up to a purple cache-2 guys in a humvee and go straight for the building its located in.

Unfortunately you were playing with crappy insurgents. When there are 2 caches at the same place = 32 insurgents in the same bloody place. And that's intense and fun for both sides, 'cuz all the 64 guys in a server are concentrating in a 300m radius firefight, trying to reach the 180m offset location of the marker.

This will probably be fixed, though, with the Beta version. Try it. Most people dislike no rallys in Insurgency, but in AAS (IMO) it's just so cool that squads actually work togheter now.

For some reason people just don't understand or don't care. DON"T SPAWN AT UNKNOWN CACHES!!! Most players just don't seem to get it. Sure some caches are just found by chance. I've found a couple by just randomly searcheing in places you comonly see them. But a majority of unknown caches are found because some idiot spawns there and fires his RPG at the first thing he sees.

It's not a hard concept, but most players don't get it.

Cache spawn is random, there has been no increase in the instances of this in 0.87 due to this simple fact.

[Rissien]

Yes, thats a wonderful idea. Dont spawn at the unknown cache so that when it becaomes visible it will be completely undefended. No its the idiots who start shooting rpgs from unknown caches you need to look out for. That one was pure luck for the US. It was south of the 6 caches from before and the LAV was already looking in that direction anyways given he was north of the 6 cache spawns.

That and the fact that new cache was the closest spawn we had on that side of the map given our hideouts were overran anyways.

Here you just said that the cache spawned close to the firefight. Why would you spawn on an unknown so close to a firefight. I guess you didn't hear the LAV that was close. Maybe you should turn your sound up. By spawning there you just shot yourself in the foot.

You do realize that you have 3 minutes after the cache becomes blue before you can no longer spawn ther right? And you do realize that you can spawn there AFTER the BLUFOR have left right? If you see a cache go blue you can suicide and spawn there before it becomes unspawnable right? (if there isn't anyone to defend it already)

Pretty sure thats what I just said.

[Scared_420]

elvish is onto something,,, same thing seems to happen in archer in the middle,, seen mortars take out 4 caches in 1 strike once and then after the mortars a guy spawnd in and began shooting rpgs so we went in and took out cache another cache,, all within 3 minutes,, idiots shooting rpgs are a big giveaway

[Rissien]

scope you obviously misunderstood something. I'l need a visual aid.



The red circles are where the 6 caches that all spawned one after another there.

After the 6th cache spawned and the 5th went down the first blue circle cache spawned. That was the cache the LAV spotted insurgents spawning on and then moved in on. After that cache was overran and taken down, the other blue circle cache immediatly spawned in the same building. All insurgents in the area were dead and spawns were gone so it gave the US a free cache.

5 minutes is not alot of time to set up a proper defense, especially when Coalition forces are fairly close. I never blamed spawning insurgents for revealing the blue circle caches, merely stated it was bad luck at that. No one fired from it, the LAV merely saw us spawning there, considering at the time our hideout near the red circle caches was overran and we had no other spawns in the vicinity. Waiting untill a cache is visible to the US is pretty dumb, even more obvious when you suddenly see a bunch of insurgents all spawning in the newly revealed area and scrambling to put things down.
