Idea to Prevent Spawn Kills :D

[Strained]

Well, as I think most other players do too, I hate when I get spawned, when I'm respawning and I get killed, or I get killed when somebody spawns. So here's teh idea: Give the people that spawn a 1-2 second spawn period. During that period, they cannot shoot, and cannot be shot.

If there's already a thread for this, I'm sorry, I'm new to these forums =/

How to not get spawn killed, by Dameon Angell.

Step 1: If you're in pub, hit the insert key (default warp). More likely than not, there is not antiwarp activated. You will then be whisked away to another part of the spawn area.

Step 2: If you are not in pub, or are in an area with heavy use of Anti Warp, try moving. When you move you will soon learn to dodge bullets coming at you and will eventually have a knack for avoiding those deaths.

Step 3: Spawn back. Sure, you may get spawned, that's the name of the game. But, spawn them back and get even. As Dwight always says, "Tit for Tit" (Jim also says, ".... that's so not the expression.").

Dameon is your avatar the cover of a Slackers album? (Too lazy and at work to actually look it up myself.)

Then Steve Carell makes a comment about how you need to branch out and experience other things besides that show.

Even if everybody would fancy your idea, it would be impossible to work it out since this requires a modification to the Continuum client.

However, to achieve the same result people should spawn into a safe area but I doubt this will ever happen in TW.

That would be even less fun then it is now, lol

Spawn into a safe area and then you'll find a new form of spawning. Sharks will mine the outside of it heavily, warbirds waiting for unsuspecting newbs to reveal themselves. You have better chances how it is now, to survive.

And yes, it's Jim and Pam from the Office.

like i said, this useless thread will get left in staff forum but not other peoples relevant posts about staff

I think any future changes to the public map will make the spawn area and the usable space in general more open so spawn killing won't be a problem, not that it is really a concern today. Just warp away or move out of the spawn area and go do something.

lol is this a joke? that new altpub map has a really small spawn zone. You cant spawn outside of radar of someone else, or if so not by much. And what do you mean by 'usable space'?

It should be taken into consideration in future updates is what I meant. There are also other concept maps out there for public updates. Usable space is everything inside the asteroid ring.

what you're saying and what your friends who are developing shit are doing dont match, hypocrite

No, I don't completely like that some things are not being addressed in developing a new public (the goal as far as I know was to make the spawn area more open to reduce spawn killing and allow for an open dueling space) but overall spawn killing is not a major problem or in other words it is not a priority over dealing with levi terrs, weasels, inbalances in ship settings ect...

To be a hypocrite in some fashion I would have to be involved in the process of developing a new public map/settings but if that were true I would be more of one of those useless, ineffective and abusing staffer friends of yours. I know my limits and the skills I have to offer this zone so nethier is the case.
