@Midnight97462-3 feet away? I find that hard to believe TBH...but if that did happen it was a one time thing and not some kind of game breaking issue.
Before you spawn you can change character and loadout...I'd suggest utilizing this nice feature to help you get out of the spawn points better if a team is camping.
And the broken matchmaking is not an inconvenience, it is what it is and will always be that way. I'll quit if the team I'm on is putting a pounding on the other team at times as well. If the score is like 60% to 20% it's over! It's boring to just sit there and kill kids that instantly run right into you without any resistance lol
