Ops Auto-Spawn
- 6 years ago
I've had this happen a couple of times to me.
OPs has a mechanic where if you're down at the time when the last AI opponent is vanquished the system ignores the respawn delay and simply respawns you instantly so you can be ready for the next wave.
It seems that the system which does that can't tell the difference between a downed player and one just joining and if you are unfortunately joining a handful of seconds right before that last enemy is vanquished and that system does it's check to respawn everyone you get dumped in as whatever character you had your selection box on at the time- which is usually (due to the default) the Peashooter or Soldier.
I found it annoying at first but it's pretty infrequent and requires such coincidental timing that it's not likely to be a high priority fix unless it's a super simple one.
