Citadels in EVE Online provide an invulnerability "tether" for all friendly ships outside of them as long as they don't have an active aggression timer.
What if CRUs in Project Nova had this? The Tether would be on you as soon as you spawn in, and would only go away if you fire your weapon or move far enough away from the CRU. That way even if the CRU was camped you could hold in the tether until enough people spawned in, and then optimally position yourselves before engaging.

How will i know if he is invulnerable? will he have the upper hand when i shot my charged scrambler shot at him then he starts moving after? Think out your idea before you ruin my game. The lag makes it difficult enough to play as is.
I should have mentioned that in EVE the tether makes a visible beam out to the ship in question as well as a half-circle effect on the ship itself.
The person who was invulnerable would have an obvious beam linking him to the CRU as well as a sort of translucen semi-circle around the side of his body that was facing the CRU. In this way his presence would be obvious, but countered by the fact that he gets more control over the start of the engagement.
Also, do you really have to phrase that as "Think out your idea before you ruin MY game?". Chill.

Well actually, I do. That's my thing.
I actually forgot, sorry. I used to remember how everyone here posted but I don't come by as often so I'm a bit rusty on styles.

Just seems like a very casual mechanic for a "thinking mans" FPS
The idea is that's only for "Hard Spawns". Uplinks wouldn't get that protection, which therefore retains the importance of good uplink placement.
