Crypto can’t respawn

Minisequence​ Yeah its weird and it might be a platform related as on PC, I was able to respawn at 2 Respawn Beacons and at a Mobile Respawn Beacon without any issues via Crypto's drone on Olympus.

1. First beacon was used within the first 5 minutes of the game as I had respawned one of the two random teammates.
   
   - Respawn location was at Estates' Respawn Beacon.
   
   
2. Second beacon was used about 3 minutes later, to respawn the other teammate of the two, (who had went down as the first one was jumping out of the respawn dropship).
   
   - Respawn location was at Oasis Villa's Respawn Beacon. (which is the location east of Oasis, and north of Estates).
   
   
3. Third beacon was a Mobile Respawn Beacon, which was called down by me and used in the second to last ring.
   
   - Respawn location was at Sommer's University.

Minisequence​ Thanks for the report!

I've never run into that problem. Must be a console only problem.

JaySee11​ I have a theory:

An enemy team had used that Respawn Beacon once before and with the recent changes to how Respawn Beacons work, it no longer deactivates upon the first respawn.

Since it no longer deactivates, it "can be interacted with", however the drone wasn't updated to know that the Respawn Beacon was still useable.

If that is the case, then that means that the drone sees that the Respawn Beacon has zero uses left rather than it being unlimited.

For that theory to be proven true, the Respawn Beacons, (and even Mobile Respawn Beacons), would need to be used by Minisequence​'s team first to rule out it being a platform issue, (which it would be helpful to know if it is a platform specific issue).

I will note that there has always been a problem with being able to grab banners off of death boxes that are at strange angles.

I've had this happen as well and it seems to be related to the distance or something like that.

If it is consistently happening, go ahead and create another bug report!

That's wild, I've been playing PC m&k Crypto for years and I've never run into that problem. Must be a console only problem.

I will note that there has always been a problem with being able to grab banners off of death boxes that are at strange angles. This seems to be less of an issue these days, so maybe they fixed this awhile back, but for years it was the case that if a death box fell in such a way that it was titled at all, the drone couldn't grab the banner. This problem was especially prevalent if the death box landed in water.
