Re: Vehicle Spawns

"I see pros and * to each of them."

TRUE

"Causes people to bunch up on a runway/chopper pad/etc and fight over who gets to pilot it while doing nothing worthwhile for the team."

Also true, but I have a feeling a lot of vehicle mains are already doing this by simply refusing to spawn, sitting there spamming/clicking in spawn screen until they can get back into "their" preferred vehicle.

"The above also leads to an easy bombing run by the enemy team to just blow up everyone there as well as the vehicles as they spawn"

That one is easy, main base automatic AA that shreds enemy aircraft if they violate that airspace.

"Then you have people that will be trolls and C4/blow up/block the runways with vehicles causing them to crash/explode if they can't get it."

That one's a little trickier, maybe a wall and runway that's impenetrable to vehicles/damage and not allow vehicles call-ins on runways?

That's a fair argument with vehicle mains just sitting in the deploy screen (one of my buddies is a heli main and will do it when the team is getting destroyed so that the single attack vehicle isn't wasted for at least 90 seconds (which alone is one problem).
Also, TIL that the word c-o-n (opposite of pro) is censored here...
