set spawns at flag locations and starter bases is still the best to me.
I remember when a map would start the only vehicles on the map where in the starter base, and it was a rush to get to those other flags to spawn in stuff you want/like. there would be big battles at some locations over the extra chopper bf2 or walkers 2142.
now you can hide in a bush and just use magic to have a tank land on you.
It's an overly punishing mechanic in an environment that has more then enough ways to kill you. Either that kill coming from another player, or the game deciding you now get to free fall through the map because -reasons-.
You get punished for dying, so it's either play perfectly and don't die, or simply die wait 2 mins to spawn another vehicle of that class ontop of your own personal lock out timer which oops, someone else got that vehicle and used it to move to another flag point and abandoned it, guess it's the enemies now and that is -1 vehicle type of that class. But it's ok, just play infantry, they can do everything anyways c:
