Spawning system is annoying and needs to be fixed

The problem I have with spawning is being able to actually pick your spawn point.  On PS5 (maybe Xbox too?) I just literally struggle to select where I want to spawn, the "cursor" either skips the one I want, or won't move to it at all.  But you're right, often you spawn right into enemy fire.

If only we had the "over the shoulder" view of our squad mates like we had in previous games, that way we could make a call as to whether it's safe or not.  But I guess that is another "legacy" feature DICE couldn't be bothered with this time around?

Spawn system is terrible in this game! Apparently, DICE was informed about this by playtesters but didn't do shot! (i made a post on here a while ago including video evidence of the crappy spawns - didn't get much attention)

I agree, Not only where you spawn, but when as well. I cannot tell you how many times that I spawn in on a vehicle only to just see my death animation as it blows up.

Really? I can't spawn in on squad mates because they are 'In Combat', but you will spawn me in a heli a 1/2 second before the fatal rocket hits? C'mon...

We used to be able to see who/what we were spawning in on prior to choosing,

Spawning has always been problematic and all BF-games have bad spawns to some extent.

But Dice improved spawning a lot in BF1 (BFV was more or less the same as BF1) and now we are back to the BF4-days of bad spawns.

It seems like spawning is randomly chosen from predefined spawn-points, and the game doesn't take enemy positions into account in any way.

The only safe way to spawn, is spawning at the base, but that is just stupid.
