Anyone notice the Crucible spawns are getting weird?

So, over about the last week or so I have noticed that the Crucible spawns seem to have gotten worse. Like spawning me directly on top of enemies that are also spawning in both Control and Clash. Or spawning enemies that I just killed right behind me (and vice versa). This wasn't an issue in the past and has only started being an issue recently. Has anybody else noticed the same thing with the Call of Duty-esque bad spawning that's been happening.

  • I have noticed this too, particularly on the new TTK maps. Played for a few games and in that time I was twice shotgunned, twice sniped, once just dropped by the messenger and then finally Nova Bombed off spawn. The issue is spawning with no time to react or move, it is making my favorite activity, crucible, a burden to play.

  • Apparently the trend continues a month and a half later. I got spawned 5 times in a row next to the guy who killed me the 4 previous times with rockets. He'd kill me, I'd spawn 5ft to his left, blow me up, and then right, and so on and so on

  • Same, i have noticed it in rumble too, i have yet to see it in the 3v3 modes though. The last maintenance seems to have started it all for me.

  • Yes. Like spawning on the other side right next to the other team after they pick up heavy... Thanks, I am glad to eat those rockets. Same match, on my team spawn my Hunter spawned right next to enemy Titan with FoH ready. Yeah another quick death.

    • Damn I thought I was just experiencing some bad luck... but yeah, there's a significantly noticeable increase in occurrence where I'm spawned together with the enemy at the same spot, spawning behind enemy lines or spawning at A when my team is in control of both B and C.

    • We "know" (feel) that controlling A and C on most maps dictate your rough spawn - controlling B is less of a predictor and tends to put you in the "mid" spawn locations on the side furthest from the mass of enemy players. Control in Clash is less obvious, but I expect the game is checking a heat map to look for cool spots to plop down new spawns. (this is probably also the "deciding" factor in control once all flags etc are accounted for) So what happens when control is fairly even, and there are 2 opposing players to spawn? Well, I'd suggest that what is happening here is that there is some glitch in assigning the spawn location, meaning that when the game looks for a cool spot for 2 players at once it assigns the same spot. This could be caused [i]for example[/i] by this being a client side process that is struggling to check with the host - and 2 clients make the same decision before cross referencing. I feel like at the same time as this problem has arisen there has also been less getting stuck at 0 seconds to spawn and nothing happening - so it smacks to me like a bi product of an attempted fix for this. Some people may rather spawn and take their chances than sit staring at a broken timer, so this might actually be an improvement in [i]some[/i] player's experience [spoiler]I'm just applying basic engineering to the problem, I in no way know the ins and outs of the code, I'm just making an educated guess.[/spoiler]

    • This is due to the enemy camping all around the map

    • Yea I've seen this as well. Sometimes spawn right in front of the guy that just killed me or get spawned simultaneously with the enemy.

    • For me it started after the pre-HoW update. Whatever they did royally screwed up the spawns, because I never had that problem before that update.

      • It's like Scotty from Star Trek munched a load of shrooms and just beams crew to completely random locations.
