It should not give spawn protection at all, that’s an awfully stupid decision.
The risk you take for a closer spawn is getting blasted and it shouldn’t reward you for popping in as someone finds your beacon.

Agree, the whole point of a beacon is to have a closer but more vulnerable spawn, giving it spawn protection is idiotic

Spawn protection on a player-built rally point is an awful idea considering how you can theoretically set up a rally point right in front of the enemy’s spawn, and ruin any chance they have of playing out the rest of the game in any meaningful manner. It’s a terrible idea and should not be implemented.

The only type if spawn protection should be during at the teams main spawn point. Spawn beacons should just be a spawn point with no spawn protection

I agree strongly with this topic. The invincibility time for respawn beacons is set to be as long as the normal respawn point.
Because of this, the presence of a respawn beacon becomes a kind of fortress that is extremely difficult to destroy once it is created.

err, this post is quite old.
i can confirm that spawn becons no longer provide protection if someone spawns.
like, i killed lots of enemy that spawned, and i got killed when i was spawning.
so they did actually made something about it.
No, they 100% get spawn protection from beacons still. Because of that I just chuck a detpack on the beacon and die.

can you provide recent footage?
i’m tellling ya, on my end, everyone dies the same.
unfortunally, i don’t have any my self. but if needed, i’ll start to.
because i don’t think you are lying.
so if this happens again, we need to provide clog, videos and the rest should be done.
I don’t record my gameplay because who wants to watch my shit lmao.
Nah they still do, people build beacons right outside the church on Veux and all you can do is chuck grenades at the beacon because of the spawn protection.
I doubt it is a bug tbh
Just never looked at same as flinch wasn’t ever touched.
don’t you have this?
as said, we need actual footages for that…
it’s a bit weird because in the newer update i just saw a squad appear in my face and i melted down 3 of them.
but they might were there already. hard to tell.
i mean, yeah, it is a technical bug even if a wanted feature.
with enough votes, Democracy will prevail ( i think, and hope )
No I have the Nvidia replay. It just takes up drive space with videos I don’t use, so I have any recording stuff turned off.
That’s most likely it. If you didn’t see the beacon under them, they were prolly already there and moving.
I hope so, because flinch is cancer
God damn it stop reviving old topics

I had a game yesterday where one of my team mates built a spawn in easy view of an enemy held building - whoever spawned there was dead inside seconds - we couldn’t even destroy it!
So no, there’s no protection unless it’s the literally for 1st second of existence.
Oh stop with that shit.
Le necro post hurr durr
Reeeeeeeeeee
