spawn automatically after DEAD.

Post by maarit »

it happens to my friends cos they are noobs.
so is this happening any other noobs there?

so when you get black screen with text DEAD,you just spawn automatically in previous spawnlocation while your squad is in b2kp5.
just make it that you dont spawn automatically anywhere in any case.
you need always push done.

i dont have this problem,i dont know what i do different...i guess that i always push my mapscreen when DEAD.
just played yesterday kashan,squadmember gets killed by tow.
i say to him that dont spawn anywhere yet,just wait.
bang,he was spawnded at mainbase.
if i remember correctly,you spawn automatically after your spawntime runs out if you dont do nothing while watching black screen of death.

Well, in vBF2 there's the "Auto-ready" button next to the "join game" button. Could that have something to do with this? I think it's still somewhere in the settings.

doesn't sound like it is possible.

offtopic: is that really what that option is for? "auto ready"

quote from bf tweak-guide about auto-ready.
Auto Ready: If ticked, you will always automatically be ready to begin playing at the start of a round. On servers where all players have to indicate they are ready before a game begins, having this option unticked could result in delays, so keep it ticked. Most servers don't need or use Auto Ready as there is no pre-round wait.

so its not the thing here.
its hard to explain cos i really dont know what my friend goofying around there but i believe that they are just staring that blackscreen of death and spawntime runs out and they spawn at previous spawnpoint.

you must push the enter to bring your map/squadlist up to prevent that.i guess...
but it would be better that when spawntime runs out,that map pops out automatically and player have to push done to get to the field.
more and more new players come to the game and they also may just stare blackscreen and spawned automatic in wrong place and then squad get separate and game-experience gets bad vipe...

once the game loads it auto click join game after about 3 mins (not sure on exact time)
its for lets say u need a pissers so you click the button go for it and when you come back your in.

also the timer is already at 5 seconds just click enter! and deselect a spawn and you won't re-spawn

You could try getting in to the habit of deselecting your spawn point after you spawn in, that's what I usually do.

I think that they should see if they can make it automatically "declick" their respawn. I've had it happen a few times. =/

Yeah that's it. When you have the spawn selected you may automatically spawn due to the fact that being wounded counts for your respawn time (ie. You have a 30secs respawn timer. You get Critically Wounded. You stay Critically Wounded for 1 minutes, 3 minutes, 5 minutes or whatever. You'll get an almost instant spawn when you die die.

^^ not necessarily. i think even if u stay critically wounded for even 5 min and you die die, you get like 5 seconds of the dead screen.

and i like this idea. itll prevent accidents and i always check where i want to spawn everytime i die so its not much of a hassle to have to select where to spawn.

We added a 5 second delay so you have time to change your spawn point. Unfortunately it's not possible for the game to deselect your spawn point for you.

It may be possible for the coders to make it so that the Enter key is disabled on spawn .. so for the people who dont act fast enough to click the spawn point they want they could make it easier.

I dont find the recent spawn system to be an issue... if you hare having issues just keep at it .. practice makes perfect :)

I manually de-click and it still spawns it for me.

Yeah I just wasn't sure of that (dbzao confirmed this now). Also, my point would make more sense if I said instantly spawning rather than a 5 second delay, know what I mean?
