Longer Respawns. Your Thoughts?

I like longer respawns

I don't like longer respawns

92

Just curious to see what others think. I personally don't like them from a wasted time aspect. Let's just assume the average player maybe dies 10 to 12 times in a match. The longer respawn timer is 7 seconds - although, considering the time it takes for a player to get back into the fight, it's more like 10 to 12 seconds. That's 70 to 144 seconds, or 1:10 to 2:24 minutes spent doing literally nothing per match. Imagine how much worse new players have it. They literally get to do nothing but stare at a respawn screen and they don't even get to know how they died or how to get better because we still lack kill cams or any form of in-depth loadout death screens.

    It honestly makes no difference to me, Ive barely noticed it. If I had to give an answer Id say it's a good thing because the only respawn based mode that I play is Rumble and lo-blam!- respawns keeping people downed for lo-blam!- makes it more reasonable to control a map. When respawns were fast I could kill someone, then be right in an engagement with someone else, win that engagement, and the guy I killed first would be up in time to clean me up when I was weak which wouldn't happen often but it always felt like a stupid way to die. You have way more influence on the flow of the game when people take lo-blam!- to respawn. Edit: theres no way "ng[i]e[/i]r" is censored lmfao what is going on? How are we supposed to say the word "long[i]e[/i]r" without evading the filter? New web devs please
