Fix Spawn camping, add extra spawn points

  • I have noticed a lot of people do not enjoy spawn camping (especially on a sloop) and it can be frustrating.
    My suggestion is to add extra spawn points;
    *Crows nest
    *Very back of the boat on top of the canvas on the sloop

    I feel this would even the odds (or at least reduce how one sided it could be) as it would be difficult to cover all the points at once.

  • If dead people lost the ability to respawn on their ship people would think twice about engaging an opponent. I’ve only teamed twice in a year because I prefer to solo but it’s a major handicap with endless respawns and respawning on my ship with no way to defend myself especially when the ferry takes forever to put you back on your ship. It’s been really bad this weekend taking over a minute to get back. You can sink a ship in under 60 seconds.

  • There also needs to be a way to explicitly choose when to spawn. You can more or less do this in adventure mode by choosing when to leave the ferry, but in arena no such thing exists.

    The game practically encourages players to spawn camp lol.

  • @resynk87 I like your suggestion, and I'm adding something: fix the respawn AI too. You can have 4 people sitting on the canopy on the sloop and the game decides to respawn you behind the wheel, the closest spawn point to all the people on the ship, which is bad for the player.
    And, more to @NEON-iC0N 's point, you should be able to choose when to spawn and change weapons when you are respawning (arena).

    It is, because the mechanic that makes it possible is total bs and not common practice. But, you can give suggestions any way you want, when it comes to any PvP aspect someone will come around and flame you for that. Prepare for "then you are not skilled enough", "play another game" etc. Rare doesn´t seem to have interest in balancing this "PvPvE" game. I don´t see any major changes in the spawn camp issue or others (hitreg, melee combat etc.) that have been adressed even since beta, but money spills in, and you have passionate fanboys/girls so why change it? Once the ship goes down, things might change, but it will be too late, but I am just a fantasizing, because this can´t be ^^
