@ugdpy WoW. Thank you. The thought of spawning on another point never even occurred to me.
Now go read my initial post again, maybe even read it several times until it sinks in.
This was not a big issue with the other games before this, do some research, there have been lots of posts regarding this, but sometimes when it feels like every single round in certain games you simply have to vent on here.
And with previous titles we at least had a few seconds spawn protection where we could quickly dive behind some rocks ( Or a shipping container in 2042 ! ! ) or something to at least give you a fighting chance.
Oh, and I am not talking about spawning on a hotly contested flag either, I'm having the same issue even when selecting a flag where the action is apparently happening on another flag that's being contested, so I pick one that does not show any icons around it.
