No need for automatization here.

Admins need to watch the deaths, and everytime one has one death, they kick him for 10 minutes.

10 minutes is kind of a "safe zone" for someone to join and on the other side, if nobody joins, team gets back to full size if the player is interested in playing more.

Gamemode should be AAS/INS because CnC is too direct with FB being knifable.

If someone hosts an event like that ill be glad to join.

this would suck. the tickets are there to simulate renforcements, we dont need to have actual new players joining.

The PR team did an outstanding job making this game as close to reality as they could and I commend them on a job well done, however, thats what it is, a game.

In the real world of battle one would have one life, one and done. but the purpose of making a game a game is so one can experience the game from begining to end. it wouldnt be a game to me if you only had one life and could no longer spawn and continue to play the game.

besides, especially when Im an insurgent I die alot, lol. so it would be no fun for me if I only had one life to spare. I play for fun, at the same time trying to help my team win and try to be as much of a team player as I can, but still all in fun.

only one life to me wouldnt be any fun and would most likely distract me from playing the "game".

happy birthday UNITED STATES MARINE CORPS, 235 yrs old today, SEMPER FI!

my brother serves in the US Marine Corps, 2/7, two tours in afghanastan and his service is no game, God Bless our Troops..

If you're carefully you still can play the whole round without dying.

people would probably play slower, although it would be fun to do something like see how people would react if we gave the INS like 5 spawns and BLUEFOR 1 spawn....just wondering
big red would be the most valuable asset to the ins LOL. takes out half the Blufor team and then respawns himself

Respawning should be in Waves like in FH2. Reinforcements should arrive at the base at the same time.

Maybe you could make a mode with 5 mins respawn time? or maybe more? Just a rather large respawn time that balances waitability and fear. i donno, just sayn.

I'm not sure if this has been mentioned yet but there'd be one weakness to the whole one life idea. Griefers.

I'm sure admins would step in if something like that happens.

And you always can try to stop them by yourself.

Mortars and JDAMs would make life hell.
