Spawning in the air

Post by DiamondElite »

Ive noticed since the last 2 updates, when you try to spawn on your home base, every now and then you spawn 10 feet in the air and get hurt. OR you spawn stuck in a roof of a building. Really annoying because either you have to kill yourself or let someone kill you if you get stuck.

Also does this if you accidently try to spawn on other squad's rally point, it switches you to home base and does the same thing. I dont have screenshots of this since I cant take a picture of myself. Fraps also kicks me when I try to use it.

I don't know about the random spawn in the air thing. BUT when you select another squad's rally you spawn on that rally and gets immediately teleported to your squad's rally or Main Base. You "fall" because the rally you chose (which was not your squad's) is in a higher altitude than you rally or Main.
Guys, when a new player comes, just answer his question and go on your merry way, instead of going berserk! It's THAT simple! :D

Ahhh that is probally why, but there was a few times that I have spawned 5 - 10 feet up for no reason on first spawn. But makes sense why now. Thanks.

Oke, anytime you need help you can count on me ;)

But it IS odd that you spawned 5-10 feet up on the first spawn... that might be a bug where the spawn point is overloaded (ex. "RED circle" on spawn screen) and you spawned on top of someone? Never heard of this before, but perhaps a possibility?

Cheers!

Its a bug, had it multiple times yesterday. I spawned in my main base, somewhere above the ground ( couple times ), when I moved, I felt down. I even got injured :( .

So I shouldn't select the rally that was on top of the mountain on Korengal valley?

you just solved a mystery for me.

Almost similar has happened to me... One time i spawned to my squads rp and then suddenly I fell from very high and got critically wounded... dont know what caused it because it was the right rp and i didnt spawn to main.

That has nothing to do with this, I've selected the spawn on main on Fallujah and the same bug happened.

That IS weird, but I would say that is a 1 in a million chances (I think you "randomly" spawn around a radius from the main base/RP).

This is very weird, a real bug then. If you are really doing it right.

Any chances you spawned on top of a vehicle?


BTW have u ever flown with a logi truck? It's 1337.
