Please add spawn guard at rally points too. Some campers are just waiting there to kill all of your squad.
clearly you never played when this used to be a thing. devs removed it for a reason

The rally point is a strategic tool that shouldnt have the advantage of protection. I systematically hunt them down and sometimes, yes a new squad spawns and gets killed but that is part of the game. When the rally points had the protection you are asking for, your squad got mostly killed, sometimes in the middle of the map. Wasnt so fair to be honest. I suggest to place the rally point somewhere hidden.

I’d like like 1s of protection. But that’s it.
It’s very OP, and most games provide no spawn protection to mobile spawns.

Rally point placements are huge advantage. When it had spawn protection, it was pretty much overpowered and abused. So, that nerf was well deserved.
So… no. If you want to spawn closer to action, you need to count on vulnerability as a tradeoff.

The only reason I posted this is because I spawned on a friendly rally point, don’t know who made it, but it was in the middle of a field and my whole squad got killed instantly.
And I spawned and was eliminated by artillery half a second later. It is a risk you need to take if you want to spawn closer to the fighting to balance things out.
When we had spawn protection on rallies, we had troops spawning right in front of our noses (in front of cap) and we couldn´t even shoot them while they were easily spraying us with LMGs… not an ideal situation either, right?

u cant just puit a rally 40m from point and get like 5 seconds of invincibility though you’d basically be on point and invincible that’s ridiculous, use ur noggin and dont spawn on shit rallies. its a shame devs removed ability to get rid of shitty friendly rallies

no thnx. The rallypoints would be to OP then and even harder to take out
This was once a thing and it was incredibly broken. Defenders could spawn 30 meters away and just run in the point with immortality. I’m glad its gone and never want it back

No game that allows you to have a mobile spawn point ever gives spawn protection to them for a reason it is super annoying and makes kill it too hard for the opposing team. If you get killed while spawning on it oh well spawn somewhere else next time and build a new one.

If there is fighting CLOSE to the RP, it will deny you the ability to spawn on it, and there’s a message that goes with that (something like: “there is fighting close to this spawn” or some such).
Obviously, people have figured that out and are now putting RPs into overwatch from a distance. Your best bet is to use the redeploy screen to try and determine if the RP is well placed (i.e., not out in the bloody open) and then make a tactical decision about where you want to spawn.
I’m not blaming you for anything, hell, you were lucky enough to be in a match where someone put an RP!
But as players we shouldn’t always default to “closest RP is best RP,” because unfortunately there are still people out there that don’t understand fundamentals (in this particular case, it might have been the classic “cover versus concealment” fallacy).
1s is enough to avoid instant death and not be abused

nah if you spawn on a bad rally you should get dotted. not every rally needs to be 30-40m from the point
