Request -- Always get the default with [] and choose any spawn with the X. Or the other way around -- I don't much care. But make it consistent and make it the same for all the game types (Skirmish, whatever).
When there are no drop uplinks you get the default with the X
When drop uplinks are available in ambush you get the default spawn location with the []. You
choose a drop uplink with the joystick and activate it with the X.
Bad design. I watched a series of players continue to spawn in on a camped drop uplink because they automatically hit the X to reenter the game. Changing the meaning of a key because of something some other player does (put down a drop uplink) is a bad idea.

I agree with this mainly because when I'm playing (particularly ambush) I don't want to wait to get back into the fight so I don't always look and see if there is an uplink on the map and I have been frustrated by spawning at said uplink which by the time I spawn is usually being camped so death comes to me and any other unfortunate member of my team making the same mistake faster then the blink of an eye.
Also it just feels wrong to have the spawn buttons change during a match.... |

I agree, if only because my teammates are... not that smart. |

After going 11/2 with 5 of my kills from people repeatedly spawning at a drop uplink in the course of about 20 seconds, I started to think of this very thread and wondered if that was what was going on.

When bringing friends into the game, a few of them have complained that there isn't an option to spawn away from the CRU/Uplink in Ambush when there is one.
The problem is that in Skirmish, you ALWAYS use X to spawn, and in Skirmish, you ALWAYS use X to spawn on the selected location.
Making Ambush require a different button press to spawn in as standard will be difficult and confusing for new players, particularly given the prevalence of X as a standard "press to do stuff" button. And making X not select the currently-highlighted spawn point when there ARE spawn locations on the field would also confuse players.
Maybe in Ambush, there could be a larger on-screen message - or one in the middle of the screen - saying "press [] to spawn" when you don't have a fixed spawn point available. That would emphasise that it's an option in the mode, and help clear up the confusion new players experience when the rules change. |

That example isnt the only aberration in key mapping.... There's a general polish needed on that part.
