Hey guys, there's a patch incoming to fix spawn points. It was told by CCP_Praetorian during the last CAST 514. he also said we could hear about it in coming days.

We should think of suggestions, instead of complaints. Trust me i'm full of complaints on this subject.

Here's my problem:
I'm not upset at the fact that I spawn next to an enemy. I'm upset that when I spawn the enemy has 2 seconds to fire at me before I'm able to even move. Its not a lag issue, unless its server lag. I'm on a 50 mb line.

Here's my suggestion:
1) Just before spawning, show your character as if in game but invisible to enemies. But only for a short time with no firing capabilities.

or

2) Spawn normally but give a (x) seconds invulnerability timer so you can move but not fire. This would give both players an equal advantage in battle, and/or time to retreat.

Anyone else have a 'constructive' method of spawning?

As a nOO player, can some kind soul please direct me to a thread about spawn points? I have looked in the forums and on Dust pages online, Wiki, etc. and can find nothing about spawn points. I have only been playing a week or so, am not in a Corporation yet, so I only get to choose "default spawn point" or whatever it is termed in game.

Is there going to be some sort of timer in which a player newly spawning is "invincible"; meaning, I have spawned many times only to have the enemy camping the spawn point, I drop in, "blind" and have been killed instantly? How can I see on the game map where I will be dropped in?

I really am trying!

I am trying to better understand where I can spawn. Sorry for the stupid question. Thank you, in advance, for your kind replies. :)

wait, I just thought of something, and this is a seriously new thought lols.


We are Ambushed from behind and thus have chaotic spawning. Which is why it's called ambush. Realy wish there where 2 Ambush modes though. Vehicles and no Vehicle mode, Because sometimes, i just enjoy a strait up Infultry vs Infultry fight.
