I'm not a fan of the jump pads myself. They make it far too easy for an LA attacker to relocate himself wherever he wants in your base in a matter of seconds. They should be making their way through the base rooftop to rooftop, using smoke grenades / flashbangs to avoid return fire and assault an objective like a generator. Instead, they just jet to the top of a tower and bounce around a few times until they're on the tower overlooking the generator.

Lame. PlanetSide is about tactics... a mechanic such as this just waters it down. Lets face it, defenders will generally spawn in the approximate center of the base and run towards the side they want to defend, or they will spawn at the AMS closest to that point. The jump pads are more useful to attackers than they are defenders.
