Spawn point?

Why was the change done so the enemy can now see your spawn box? Some of us go out of our way to keep good spawn points, however, its now lit up in red for the enemy??!!! WHY?!!!?!!!

If someone pings a spawnpoint, it will be highlighted in red. Generally people don’t do that, because if you can actually see a rally point, and thus ping it, you can just shoot it, and it dies.
They also make a beeping noise that you can use to track them down once you get close enough.

Well Rally points are how a Team can Advance or Defend. To just make them turn “Red” immediately after deployment makes them pointless. Running a mile back to the objective is pointless and slows down the game.

Also - what do you mean: “If someone pings a spawnpoint” ?

If you mark enemy tank it has its special marker for that, the same happens when you mark enemy rally point, but as it was said already if you can see enemy rally point and mark it, you can also just shoot it.

Yes but thats my point - is that they’re hidden when I build em’. Even behind walls, etc, there is no way to “spot” them — so now they all just turn Red to the enemy for some reason. Something changed in the last patch or two.

no they dont, somebody saw it and pressed the spot key…

For a rally point to be marked, it has to have someone see it and use the “mark enemy” button directly onto it. The ability to ping engineer structures other than flak and AT cannons is fairly new if I recall, but if the enemy doesn’t know where your rally point is, and have direct line of sight on it, they can’t ping it.

are you okay? Are you in distress?

Am I missing something? In the first place, how did you know your rally point turn red (got mark) to the enemy?
