the point of drop uplinks is to let you control where you spawn.....

teamwork

Not when the opposite team is spawn camping the default spawn. You could not even get spawned. Thanks devs you ruined a game for me before its even released.

I am puzzled to see that DU are still considered a good/safe spawning method!

Don't be such a drama queen, this is beta, we're here to test this sort of stuff. You clearly weren't here for the past couple of builds where spawns actually WERE broken. Things have improved with every build, granted there are still plenty of things that need working out, but it's mostly been improving as far as I can tell.

And if you really have that much trouble with spawns, skill into tanks. Those guys only spawn at the start of a match ;)

Drama queen? Why is it you always get someone answering with a stupid down right nasty remark to try and make you feel bad because you find something wrong with the way things are going?

For your information i was in the earlier builds and found the previous spawning system was better than the current one. This spawning system is a joke, 9/10 times i will spawn with orange dots all around me on the mini map.

Now any class other than the scout should be absolutely fine with this, but someone who prefers to stay away from everyone else and pick people off with a sniper rife is at a major disadvantage.

Why would anyone want to gamble where they spawn? Oh you want to spawn with others on your team? Too bad here's a spawn point surrounded by enemies that will tear you a new one in 5 seconds flat.

My drama queen remark was aimed at your "omg this game is ruined before it's out" remark.

As for earlier spawns being better than now....I don't even know how you can say that with a straight face. I guess you enjoyed dieing to RE's on spawn? No, this new system is much better, though admittedly still flawed. I only EVER spawn in the middle of enemies at the very beginning of a match, I have not once spawned that way after the game starts. Either you have terrible luck, or I have great luck >_<

They should try to split us up better at the initial spawn though, I just think it's very far from game breaking. My only complaint is how easy it is still to cap all the objectives and force the enemy back into their initial spawn area, essentially locking down the team so that they can't escape. Drop uplinks only go so far towards helping this problem. This should be alleviated somewhat though with the addition of command suits (or MCC, however it works) where you can call down a CRU wherever you need.

Basically, we're still only looking at a fraction of the tools that will actually be available to us.

Well rumor has it we are 2 builds from release and i cant say that it will change before then. So in effect yes they are ruining a game for me before release.

I find is the worst thing you could have done to this game. I don't like spawning in surrounded by enemy payers when i am a sniper, you get cut down in seconds.

Who thought this was a good idea to start with? I find it just silly. If we are spawning from the MCC then let us select where we want to put ourselves when entering battle, within a certain space obviously.

Ambush spawning is horrific.

As a Scout, I either die in the first five seconds or get away quickly. It honestly depends on how well your team is doing at the given moment, as once one team starts to steamroll the other, there is no escape. Somehow you'll find yourself spawning amongst your enemies and before you can even jump away you're cut down by an Assault Rifle, Shotgun, and a HMG all at once. That or you'll take a few steps only to fall dead by sniper fire. I seriously think it's an issue with the maps, as it seems to me that the larger the map, the less problems I encounter upon spawning.
