Red spawn

why is it sometimes the spawn turns red and you cant spawn there?

I think it is because there is an 'overload' of people spawning there, basically it would cause far too many players to be able to spawn on a point at once.

CP Abandon has a big problem with this. I think there is only one spawn point per flag or something.

Pretty much means that the spawn point is blocked.

I wonder why it happens so badly on that one map though. Everytime I play it, the "frontline" spawn is totally red and I just gotta keep clicking and hoping to catch it for the half a second that it turns white...

Snap!

I wish there were a way the beloved devs could fix this, then again, maybe the players need to fix it!

It's an issue for the Map Makers to solve. They need to add additional spawn locations associated with a spawnpoint.

Yeah, I know, but you do get idiots that 'insta-prone' as soon as they spawn to avoid incoming fire from an APC, so they're effectively blocking everyone else.

Yet they are effectively saving there ***

Suppose, but they are effectively wasting time, especially mine. I don't mean that as a selfish comment, but who wants to sit for a guy/object to move?

Hehe, yeah it's definitely something the map maker needs to fix. Until then, just remember to try your best to move your *** as soon as you spawn

If the spawn point is red, that's effectively telling me there's a reason that there's some guy sitting there. Either he's AFK or he's defending himself meaning there's trouble. I go to the next spawn point back with a kit I know can help the situation and advance on the position. Really the red points are a great help.

This problem only happens on one map so its not a big deal.
