Call of Duty: World at War

1.) It's sometimes good, sometimes bad. I'd say it's about 65% good. I actually wouldn't mind too much if I had to spawn further away from the action. Seems more realistic anyways, and keeps good lines of defense/offense a bit more realistic than having reinforcments just show up within the action. What we have now seems more geared for those that run and gun.

2.) HC TDM w/ the occasional S&D match.

3.) Courtyard specifically is really bad about spawning me in the line of fire, within an artillery strike, 2 steps away from betties (happened 2 nights ago several times), or right in front of the enemy already unloading his STG on someone else. My k/d ratio has taken quite a dump from this map alone and its respawning issues.

Multiple times recently, I've spawned on several maps, and even before I could take 1 step I was dead. The other night in sub-pens, me and an opponent spawned right next to each other! He killed me immediatley while I was still a bit shocked at what just happened (granted that was the first time that has ever happened to me, it still sucked). Another time at sub-pens I had 3 enemy spawn right in front of me. That wasn't pretty. 2 nights ago at the Airfield, I threw a spam molotav cocktail and saw an enemy appear right under it and was killed immediatley. It felt good to me as he was just some MP40 user, but still that had to have sucked for him to spawn right under a giant flaming bottle that landed on his head and killed him .02 seconds after he spawned.

I had a problem spawning in the same section of Banzai the day it was released, right in front of a camper. I died 3 times in a row from the same guy, and there was nowhere for me to go accept down to the ground to suck some dirt.

4.)I think it's safe to say that people generally want the ability to join the action after spawning. It's significantly harder to do so when you're constantly dieing 2 seconds after spawning.

Kendo is right you in a battle royal and most of both sides are killed each player on both sides is grabing a little cover reloading and getting their health back you get up to make that final push and you have 4 enemy players looking at you because they just spawned there.

okay, i played four map pack matches in hardcore tdm, paying close attention to the spawning


- we did not get dogs called on us so i can't speak on that

1- the first match was sub pens. i was spawned into artillery once. i was spawned only a few feet from campers (not in line of sight but only a few feet away). i spawned with an enemy in my line of sight twice.

2- the next match was corrosion. i had similar problems as sub pens. there were good spawns and then there were bad spawns. the enemy got wiped out and then spawned directly behind my team twice (we had radar on and saw the little red dots appear right next to us after we killed them all)

3- on banzai the spawning was quite bad. the enemy spawned behind us again. i spawned only to have an enemy immediately run up on me twice (in caves).

4 - the last match was on sub pens and that was the worst of all. i spawned with enemies in my sights countless times.

WTF?  I posted in this thread about makin and cliffside spawning but it's disappeared?

probably didn't want to hear/see the truth about the crappy spawns, so it was deleted.

JGrimes, no need to be a negative nancy. This thread is here so that the developers can here the problems we are having.
