    This is working as it should since you were able to instantly spawn again on your other squad member (didn't count as a death). If that counted as a death there would have been a delay before you could spawn. Since you spawned nearly right at the moment the player died it canceled out the spawn.

  • I have the same issue. I guess its just poorly engineered UX as this is "intended". IMO the spawn prevention for in combat should be more based on distance to enemy engaged as opposed if your squad mate in engaged in combat. In your video the problem is the recon is sniping from far away and sucks, dies and now you have to respawn again. Even if its not a bug, its bad user experience because it feels like a death.
