When playing in Korengal Valley if you select a spawn point sometimes it will spawn you miles away from there at the edge of the map which is incredibly frustrating for no apparent reason at all.

The spawn point is valid on the map as far as I am aware there should be no reason for it not to allow me to spawn there, if for some reason there it can't spawn me there it shouldn't give me the option to do so.

I have noticed this happening to many people and as a result you spend the next 30 mins on foot trying to get over the famous Korengal terrain to where you intended to spawn at in the first place.

Can someone please shed some light on why this is?

if I recall correctly it is supposed to be a random spawn.

Random spawn? What's the idea behind it? I've seen lots of people getting frustrated because of it.

Maybe its temporaly spawnpoint at start and then becomes disabled, but you still see the icon.
Who knows, happened to mee too.

no its supposed to be permanent, if it wasnt then how could the taliban spawn if:

a) they have no hideouts
b) the cache spawns are overrun

Maybe by making a main base spawn. Or there should at least be text "random spawn" in my opinion.

Can someone from the Development team please shed some light on this?

I think its random because there is supposed to be a taliban commander's box there, but since UAV is disabled its useless and theres no point being there unless theres a cache, to which extent you should have spawned...on it.

in my opinion this spawn point is the best within all insurgent maps of PR ...even if it could be somehow optimized.
i'd say it definitely emphasizes the randomness and unpredictability of insurgency attacks (was this the intention of the spawn point? im sure not, but anyway, its cool!).

i dont like the idea of obvious insurgent main bases in PR at all, since im sure that there aint a taliban "main base" @ the real korengal valley or fallujah, e.g. -> from this it follows that insurgency attacks are unpredictable and random.

so, hell yeah, that spawn point rocks, but id make it more random and adapt other INS maps with those also.
