Camping outside boundary with tanks

Product: Battlefield V
Platform:Sony Playstation 4
Please specify your platform model. Sony PlayStation 4 Pro
Which part of the game is the issue happening in? Multiplayer
Which part of the mode? Frontlines
Please select your region North America
On which server did this happen?
When did this happen? (dd.mm.yy hh:mm)
Summarize your bug On modes where the boundary is different for each team, people camp outside the opposing team's boundary in a tank - making it nearly impossible to take out the tank. This is a cheap tactic and should not be allowed. The same thing happened in BF4 and nothing was ever done about it.
How often does the bug occur? Every time (100%)
Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? Play the game
What happens when the bug occurs? People camp outside the boundary in a tank
What should be happening instead? Tanks should not be able to fire when they are outside the boundary. They should have to be inside the boundary to fire.

  • Outside the the boundarythe screen of a player should look like those of the enemy: red, no reticules, dying after 10 seconds. Or at least it should look like this if a player is not leaving their safe zones after 30 seconds.

    If he can keep standing there, it's not a actual Dead Zone. It probably is still his Base area which is just a Dead Zone for your team.

    Would be the same case for him on your Base side.

    When he keeps shooting from there and won't move at all, then it's basically his play style. And you actually can't tell other players how they should play in your opinion.

    Spoken like someone who likes to find every glitch to game the system. You must follow the motto if you ain't cheating you ain't trying. You must hate when people report the glitches you use and they get fix.

    Camping in spawns should be made no point,death, or kill award zones. Basically whatever happens to a player in a spawn does not count toward the match or overall stats. No points should be gained from any action that is caused in a spawn whether from a player in the spawn or a player outside the spawn, ie enemy spawn camping a spawn does not benefit from killing or spotting someone inside their spawn. They should be able to kill from their spawn and die inside but neither should be counted toward the match or stats of the affected players. 

    This would in my opinion help minimizes people who just sit back in their spawn sniping or with tanks just out of reach of the enemy team but benefit highly with very little to no risk. 

    This kind of garbage playing has been in every Battlefield game unfortunately but at least spawn camping the losing team is not as bad in this iteration of Battlefield. I have to say they spawn areas are better this time around except that some maps the spawns are not balanced for distances from capture points in Conquest.
