BF isn't the only game that does this, but still a great idea. +1

I like this. Everyone gets to see the team's starting lineup, group up with their squads, make some last minute plans, etc. Better than the chaotic mess we get now.

indeed

Hey man, I don't agree with just having MCC, but honestly...... it really wouldn't make a difference either way. Have it so the first spawn is only in the MCC. Then once the MCC opens up have the ground spawn open up as well. The ground spawns have only really ever been there for redline prevention. But if both teams are only starting in the MCC then it really doesn't make a difference.

Or we could just do it the way I want it and have everyone stand still upon spawning for the first 20 seconds, thus making it so that everyone starts running at the same time. I really don't care how CCP does it, so long as they do it.

actually... i like the thought of spawning as a squad. its better than spawning in one at a time in front of a group of enemies.

if you known youre getting camped, you could spawn as normal except before you actually spawn you'd have to hit the button again. this lets you wait for the rest of you squad or team.

put a limit to how many can spawn at a time and color code the uplinks so we can see where our squad mates are spawning in and how many are spawning at that location.

itd be pretty funny to see spawn campers flee as 6 heavies spawn in all at once lol

Ummmmm the title of this thread is "like BF3" not MAG. I just want an INITIAL 20 second spawn timer. After that, every other spawn timer would go on like it always has. And by "20 second spawn timer" I mean, the moment the first merc materializes on the ground, he has to stay stationary for 20 seconds. If another merc materializes 10 seconds into the 20 second wait, then he/she only has to wait 10 more seconds.

This way everyone starts moving at the same time and not whenever they load into the game. Simple as that.

Look, like ive said twice now. IDC if the MCC is the only spawn or not. Whichever is easier for CCP to implement is the option I would choose. There can be a million spawn options for all I care. So long as nobody can move for the first 20 seconds the problem I care about is fixed. Spawn locations are such a trivial thing to care about when this discussion is about the process of spawning in. Not the locations in which you spawn on to.
