The 3 seconds no death.

You get spawn killed in SnD?

Let's say if you join in the minute 2:01 and the round has already started on the 2:30, it's more than enough time to get the other team in your spawn.

agreed.

i think this would be more related to FFA as i always get killed by a spawner.

You know the 3 seconds no death in TDM after spawn. It would be better if you had that also in the SND and EM. Because many people get spawn killed...(me like 5 games a day) and thats very annoying.

bad luck dude

That's only if you join late, and this would give some people a major advantage and cause rejoining to be even more popular.

This actually isn't a bad idea. Would also help against hackers, because sometimes people just don't vote and takes longer for them to be kicked..

Shoot through walls is now equivalent to 1 hit kill. Permanently patched.

And also GM since when the BL spawn, you can see the ghosts...

Again, used as an advantage due to re joiners. It's just not practical to have invincibility at spawn when the only time you would need it is if you join late.

I propose reducing all spawn times to one second. Maybe two in TD.

FFA is already bad enough with people spawning behind you constantly, giving them three seconds of invincibility is ridiculous. On top of that, i've expereienced some players getting close to five seconds of invincibility if you are spraying them as they spawn. Probably due to high ping, but considering the majority of players are over 100 ping, I think it quite reasonable to lower it to one second. If it takes you more than a second to react, this is probably not the right game for you... actually, I don't think there are very many games for you.

TD is a bit different because you always spawn in the same place, but i've still experienced people rolling out of spawn while still invincible. Egypt is the only map that having a longer spawn protection makes sense, but that has to do with how easy it is to lob nades in that map. Another thing that needs to be looked at.

For SnD you joined the game late, you have one second to pick your gun and react. I think you shouldn't even be able to join a round halfway through. It would also eliminate re-joiners.

EM doesn't let you join mid-way through a round. It is good and what SnD should be.


Edit: awwww shi... guy above me ninja'd like mad. So good he did it an hour before I posted.
