Spawn protection in FFA

iDupree

Just remove it. I shouldn't need to be wasting a clip on someone's face after 3 seconds and do 0 dmg.

High pingers get around 5 seconds of spawn protection, and in small maps, like Greece, people spawn in your face over and over again.

But it would kind of suck if you spawn right next to somebody without spawn protection and die instantly

Seen a couple suggestion to be like, if you move you, the spawn protection goes away, but that'd be unfair too. I could just not move, aim at someone and shoot.

pretty much what FFA is... but you can't do much due to weapon draw time

in reality this game needs actual lag compensation and better interpolation

This would be almost perfect if,

-whenever the person moves his mouse, the shield goes away
-if he shoots, shield goes away
-if he does any movement, the shield goes away.
then FFA can be fun.

IMO, the protection time should be reduced, but not removed.
If it got removed completely, you would sometimes die as soon as you spawn. And that ain't good either.
