I didn't like the old ambush spawns. It was definitely a kill or be killed spawn in, unless you get the 4v1 one way or another.
This new spawn system isn't bad for the beginning of the game. It puts team members together and usually squad mates. Every once in awhile a sacrificial lamb is thrown into the blues.
But it is ruining the 1v1 that alot of us used to enjoy.
If you run solo 1/2 the time like I do, meeting up with a 1v1 or 2v1 was alot of fun, you got to know who was good and who wasnt.
If you run with a squad, you would have to pick your way to them (fun too) and it enhanced squad play (if you wanted it).
This new spawn system is a blob mentality. There are hardly any 1v1's anymore. I played a good 8 hours tonight and had maybe 3 TRUE 1v1s. The rest was team fire the blob or flank the blob to fire them. It wasn't very engaging.
I would suggest a hybrid spawn system. Spawn each team by each other, they can set squad orders and organize from there. But after that first death, you get the old spawn system and it's up in the air where you land.
As it stands now, if a blob of opponents get killed. All we have to do is look for the next red dot sighting on map and run to it, because we know they will all be there to get farmed. This makes OBs ridiculously OP.
I am not "whining" because I am losing, I am "whining" because I am winning... handily.
This not only affects infantry, it affects tankers more.
Example: Tanker kills 6, gets told by squad where they are all spawning again (B). Tanker goes to B, all 6 spawn in AV and wipe tank out with team fire.
The old way had it's flaws but was much better than this new spawn system.
If there is anyway to combine the two in the next.... year, I would suggest doing it.
Otherwise it's a blob mentality game mode and the death of true Player vs. Player.
EDIT: I put this in Feedback because I heard you actually read this area sometime, any type of response would be appreciated. I understand you worked on the spawn system after months of griping, just hoping you take a look at it and see where I am coming from...

If you want 1v1 go to skirmish. I don't think you will get much positive feedback to this, although kudos (I guess) if I'm wrong. In fact, if your original post gets more than 50 likes, you may join my corp and be gifted with a million isk. :) |

This thread is an interesting discussion in GD, but in Feedback, it's a double-up of the sticky thread about the spawn system.
Good stuff coming up in General Discussions about it, but I'm sticking with my previous opinion. |

One does not simply 1v1 during war. |

meme aside... that's the truth
during a warzone mentality its 'kill the ****** that's your enemy by any means'
those means are usually back up that is right next to you, so i'm afraid your point is moot. pack/blob mentality is part of how we think, why do you think war lines dont move in stagger stunted patterns? |
