The Helicopter and spawn problems...

[Ol Smoke]

You ever be playing along and then you start spawning all over the place?  You ask what is up with the spawns?  Here is the answer:

 

that darn helo.

 

When you get a lot of helo calls and they are flying around the map a lot, the spawns are moved so you don't spawn under an enemy helo.

Sometimes the only open spawn is behind the enemy.  I have studied this a lot and found it to be very true.  Especially in Ambush and Crash.

 

I wish we could do something about air strike spawns.  I died 3 times in one AS.  And that was just last week.

Trust me, I have died that many times in one airstrike MANY times, it's a common thing. Also, spawns can be controlled by placing claymores, you know, the spawn system is pretty horrid. The game itself is good, but I wish it had a more... tf2 style of spawning. A safe area where it's impossible to kill the players in it, or at least a 2 or 3 second invincibility mode where you can't kill either, would make spawn killing darn near impossible.

I spawned underneath the heli many many times. Are you quite certain the spawns change? It doesn't seem like it to me.

[Dddrgn]

To tell the truth, if it does change anything, it's not enough to be significantly noticeable. The spawn system is horrid enough as is, so it probably wouldn't matter anyway.

Go to spectator and watch the helo and then watch how the spawn changes.  I dont know if you could see it from ground point of view.

The worst map for this is Ambush.  When their helo is over our spawn,  I spawn in behind them all the time.

I know I've spawned behind enemies in their spawn point even without a heli. It was rather usefull in some situations.

I agree with you Ddrgn, the spawns do suck lol.

I don't have problem whit heli, but airstrike can kill people 2 or 3 time in a spawm.

But i'm not a kight whit a computer.

I love spawning behind enemy lines. I find it helps.

Spawns do change from time to time right? Teams change on a regular basis side on maps and the spawn changes with them. But in some ocassions, 1 or 2 players are spawned directly in the enemy territory, mostly in/behind the lines.

Never got the clue why/how it happens, but if it happens: just enjoy surprising the enemy, I guess.
