Dark Carnival Finale changes - discuss

So... I'd like to try and find a new place to play it. Some people like the stage, but I personally prefer playing it right in front of the bathrooms. As long as someone stands near the tipped-over vending machine, you can block spawns fairly well.

There may be too many spawns now. Bathrooms is ok for now I guess, but we could have easily gotten a bunch of nasty hits had we coordinated better.

I think bathrooms are fairly safe at the moment, I don't think they need to add spawns by the sound stage and towers though, I think those were dangerous enough before.

Bathroom isn't as safe as we thought. Was playing it the other night and I think you can still spawn in those holes next to the bathroom, even if someone is right up next to the vending machine, because I was able to spawn spitters and boomers in there against a team playing that area.

I'm thinking the left side of the stands might be a palatable place to play it. They added the covered booth there which increases spawns, but it's not quite as major a change as what was done to the right side.

Stage I don't really see as a good place to play, just because SI can spawn literally from all sides, and you have to cover in every single direction.

Lol played it last night. We decided to play the God spot still...until the SI started spawning out of the window that we didn't notice right above us. We didn't last very long. What about playing right in front of the stage?

I think in front of the stage is super dangerous...High pounces are super easy, lots of spawn spots from every direction, forklifts on the ground for the tank to smack you with. Stage is better than right in front of it because it actually has more cover and about the same number of spawn locations. I still like the bathrooms best but you have to be super aware of the SI spawns for a spitter. 1 good spitter 2 cap combo can end you pretty fast. I still like it better though because its pretty damn impossible to split you up..... which is the main way teams lose on that finale.

Edit because that came out super rude unintentionally. =p

Reading this I thought he was talking about running back to the bathrooms before you get outside.

Haven't done it yet, but I would assume the lightswitch would be best.

Yeah they defiantly changed a lot! I kinda missing the god spot lol

I love the idea of allowing normal SI spawns during events/finales, but the additional props where over-kill. They should have just fixed the spawn ratio and left it alone.
