Please add a timer at the beginning of a match

Just 30 - 60 seconds so everyone can load and spawn in. If PC players aren’t going to be able to turn xplay off, please allow players with less capable machines (i.e. with a hdd) to load into the correct position before the match starts. Too many times have I arrived at the first point to find nobody there because they didn’t load quick enough, and I’ve had matches where the first point is lost because the game didn’t decide to load our team in when the match starts. Its little things like this that cause players to leave games and kill player retention. Thanks

Yeah I’ve been in matches were 75% of the team loads in like 30 seconds later and with how condensed invasion is, that matters a lot.

Yes, i would like this and think it’s supports tactical game mechanics.

I was under the impression, that they introduced a timer 30 secs, yet i find it only seems to work as axis on Normandy, if i play as allies , i am in a game within 3-15 secs, same with Tunisia, straight into games, no timer.

100% agree this is such an easy fix and would be greatly appreciated.

Also first point can be a linchpin in certain maps like Normandy beaches or Le Bre where 1st point is one of the best ones to defend.
