Please tell me WHEN do you spawn with a shield?
English
-
He's talking about normal player shields, that little white bar on someone's health you get rid of before the red one, not overshield. Go back and read it again.
-
So a normal headshot shouldn't kill? Also where is there a spawn animation?
-
It's the animation wherein you are dropped back into the map in a flash of light. It is during this time that a sniper can recognize and aim in on the individual. By the time the sniper had let loose a shot the spawning individual has not yet been given free mobility leaving them helpless. It's not a noticeable animation to most because they only experience a portion after it has already started and thus seems minor, but it is more than enough time for the common sniper to take advantage and get a free undeserved kill.

If you can give me a clip of control or even skrimish where that has happened, I'll believe you. He probably mis said it and talking aboit revives.
-
I do this on twilight gap all the time. If you're at A up on the rail looking across at the C heavy, the game will spawn opponents there if they control C since it is the furthest away from most action. The poster is right you see a flash and in that instance you have time to line up the shot and if you time it right, the moment the guardians feet hit the ground, my bullet is hitting their head. Guardian down.

Ok, but I still say he's talking about revives.
-
Oh he may very well be. But you asked for examples of spawn killing and, while it is rare, it is possible. As I've said, the only maps I've seen it possible is twilight gap from A looking at C heavy and on cauldron of you're sitting on either side of the balcony heavy you can see to either side and you're far enough away that the game seems to consider those sides "safe" and you can spawn snipe there.

I can kind of agree with that. Sonce it be rare, i don't see people taking that up as a major issue. Theres still no other way to spawn in with a shield besides being revived, or self revive.
