Legionay Doomheim 39	Posted - 2012.12.19 10:14:00 - [1] - Quote I didn't see it in the patch notes but I'm rarely spawning directly in front of an enemy, I say rarely because I have spawned occasionally with a teammate and find 10 enemies come over a hill behind us. Also I always seem to spawn with my team, which is a great thing because you actually get 16 v 16 now and it's not just random running around trying to find someone. Also I love the extra small maps now, this is coming from a sniper.
Grimmiers ZionTCD Legacy Rising 158	Posted - 2012.12.19 10:28:00 - [2] - Quote I've spawned in a group of enemies multiple times, but it was the first spawn of the match. They really need to make the first spawns not as random.
Needless Sacermendor Red Fox Brigade 208	Posted - 2012.12.19 10:40:00 - [3] - Quote They did say they had some improvements to Ambush spawn mechanics ready for next build I think they worded it. Maybe it was just omitted from patch notes because there was more important stuff and didn't want a 10 page notes. Maybe initial spawns in the first 30 seconds could be random but splitting the map in half some how so each teams initial spawn is separated.
Reiki Jubo Amarr Templars Amarr Empire 63	Posted - 2012.12.19 12:53:00 - [4] - Quote ambush spawning still not good. still needs some tweaking.
Ima Leet Imperfects Negative-Feedback 321	Posted - 2012.12.19 18:44:00 - [5] - Quote i've spawned and died... its not fixed
Beld Errmon Tal-Romon Legion Amarr Empire 479	Posted - 2012.12.19 19:10:00 - [6] - Quote You spawn randomly at maybe 10-20 different points, sometimes its near enemies facing you sometimes you spawn looking at their back, either deal with it or play skirmish.
Super Cargo Osmon Surveillance Caldari State 428	Posted - 2012.12.19 19:21:00 - [7] - Quote Spawning is better imo, but far from perfect. I still have at least one bullish!t spawn a game where I either spawn in front of someone or just around the corner from 3 enemies. Progress is good though.
Kira Lannister Hellstorm Inc League of Infamy 711	Posted - 2012.12.19 19:23:00 - [8] - Quote I've noticed in the plateaus map for the ambush game mode, I get spawned safely for the majority of the match.
Paran Tadec Imperfects Negative-Feedback 902	Posted - 2012.12.19 19:25:00 - [9] - Quote Ambush spawning is **. Why anyone chooses to play this mode with ** spawning is beyond me. Yesterday playing ambush I spawn 3x right next to an enemy dropuplink, which happened to be surrounded by 5 reds. 3.times.in.a.row. WTF. On the very next spawn I spawned right into the stream of fire from an AR. He didnt see me and then shoot, I literally spawned in it long enough for the guy he was initially shooting at to get away.
arimal lavaren L.O.T.I.S. Legacy Rising 186	Posted - 2012.12.19 19:26:00 - [10] - Quote You pretty much have two options with team death match, random spawns in which ocasionally you'll get screwed and lose a suit or two, or static spawns which opens you up to spending the whole match red lined. Which is worse?

Oh lawd people, an imperfect died more than once in a match! The game is broken!
tastzlike chicken ROGUE SPADES 59	Posted - 2012.12.19 20:15:00 - [12] - Quote Look on the bright side , the spawning couldn't be worse than the previous build, right? I mean for that to happen you would have to spawn bent over, with the bottom half of your dropsuit missing, an ashtray balancing on your back and a drink holder strapped to your head...

The dark cloud Seraphim Initiative. CRONOS. 1060	Posted - 2012.12.19 20:54:00 - [15] - Quote I learned my lesson from those "fixed spawns". Now i carry a drop uplink when im playing in a squad. Fed up spawning in the middle of 6 guys who then start shoting me.

Shouldn't have to sacrifice a slot because a game mechanic is broken. 4 builds they've had to fix this.
SATORI CORUSCANTi Pink Fluffy Bounty Hunterz RISE of LEGION 253	Posted - 2012.12.20 07:25:00 - [17] - Quote Ambush spawns are still bad
KAGEHOSHI Horned Wolf Seraphim Initiative. CRONOS. 3064	Posted - 2012.12.20 07:27:00 - [18] - Quote It has certainly improved, though I would not say its fixed.

Garrett Blacknova Codex Troopers 1849	Posted - 2012.12.20 11:12:00 - [20] - Quote I have to try ambush again. The other day it refused to let me play the mode, and I haven't given it another go yet. But in spite of the issues with the mode's spawning, I've found it mostly to be a pretty good mode in Codex. A single player working with their team by providing Drop Uplinks can turn the match from chaos into victory. You don't need EVERYONE to sacrifice a slot in their loadout - just 1 or 2 people. And even then, they only need to sacrifice one equipment slot for one spawn near the beginning of the match, then swap out at their earliest convenience. Switch back to the Uplink build when the current Uplink is starting to run down (or being camped). If you have Supply Depots on the map, set an Uplink near one, and you can spawn there, re-deploy the Uplink, then switch to another loadout every time you die - no loss of performance, just a couple of seconds longer before you go into battle.
