The current state is basically how spawn beacons were in all the BF games I played since BF3.

I assume they did that because now every recon player will have a beacon by default.

@UP_Hawxxeye No, in BF4 the spawn beacon stayed indefinitely.
The following situations removed it:
Spawn beacon took damage (shot at, run over, exploded, knifed)
The player that deployed it, deployed a new spawn beacon
The owner spawned on it without a spawn beacon in the loadout (eg. a different class kit)

In my opinion it worked the same in Hardline and BFV.

    @kregoraI am quite sure that the beacon expired in BFV as I was getting annoyed by others depleting my beacon

      @UP_Hawxxeye Maybe they changed the behavior after I stopped playing BFV. I stopped playing with the announcement that DICE pulled the developers for the new Battlefield game, which turned out to become BF2042.

        @kregora Well I cannot be 100% sure. It seems like one of us has the Mandela effect :D
