How long does the Engineer spawn point stay?

Mess Room

Simple question, but I can’t seem to find a simple answer:

If your Engineer squad is wiped out, how long does the spawn point remain?

The Rally point remains until someone blows it up or it gets put into the gray zones on Assault. You also don’t need the Engineer squad to place them.

I keep an Engineer in each squad, consider them more so my squad leader with setting my future spawns, and a new squad feels naked without him.

Okay, so if it doesn’t get destroyed (besides grey zones) it will be there forever? I’m sure my spawn points have disappeared after some amount of time while being hidden, but maybe someone found their way to it.

How did u become a mod without knowing something so simple?

Artillery, Mortars, and Aircraft is my guess. When I leave them out in the open I have the most issues with what you’re describing and my belief is that’s what is hitting them.

When I surround them with sandbags I have less issues with it.

" * Mobile respawn point tuning:

so what is happening is that your spawns could have been used up

If I’m not mistaken. The use limit seems to only apply to lone fighter mode.

Maybe because moderator doesn’t have anything to do about the game?

Speaking for the main thread, as far as I could recall during CBT and CAT, the maximum amount of people that could spawn before disappearing, was 15, than got nerfed to 10.

But I suspect this has been removed or tweaked, although hard to tell since for the majority of the time, you either capture a point first, end the match, or got destroy before reaching that goal.

Hope this can answer, cheers.

I know that spawn points disappear eventually, I’m just trying to determine why they disappear, so I can make the most use out of them.

And yes, I am a mod, but that has nothing to do with my in-game skill. I’m just a regular player. I don’t have access to development or coding or anything lol.

You can destroy it with a single middle mouse button(melee) so if any person spawning on the beacon presses melee by accident the spawn beacon can be destroyed. I also noticed a few times people walk up to a spawn and just destroy it for “insert reason”

What is not being mentioned is that they also “disappear” do to the spawn interface meaning just because a spawn point is still there and has not been wiped out by being in the gray zone or destroyed it still may not be seen even though its there because when you are at the spawn interface (ready to spawn in with a new squad) the spawn menus can hide it especially if it is on the left side of the map. So its still there but ya can’t spawn in on it but with all the continual updates teaks and fixes this is something that seems unimportant. Don’t worry this truthful thread will get hidden by the community for violating something.
