Replace Spawnpoints with a Spawnline

I suggest replacing a spawnpoint system in Enlisted maps with spawnlines.

So what are spawnlines?

Currently in Enlisted we have a system where there are specific spawn points on which both sides spawn upon.

Now, rather than having near point specific location, the Idea is to replace it with a front/spawnline that soldiers are randomly distributed on upon spawning, or at least in the beginning of the match.
Enlisted Spawnline

Why should this be implemented.

  • First and most importantly - It would remove any issues that we are currently having with Spawn Bombing. More experienced players have long ago remembered most of the spawnpoints on the maps. With this it has become very easy to fly your plane and drop bombs/rockets right into a cluster of soldiers and with that getting easily over 20 kills in a go.

  • It would make Artillery Spamming less effective in the first minutes of the battle since you could not pinpoint where the enemy soldiers are coming from.

  • Spawn camping would be seriously complicated for any other people who like using their snipers to shoot at a specific location where enemies spawn.

  • Also it adds upon immersion where soldiers don’t just enter the battle out of the same bunker like it is a clown car, but reach the battlefield in a spread out frontline.

  • The system would not affect rally points, nor the vehicle spawns. Also by making spawn bombing ineffective soldiers would not require any spawn protection which would eliminate the moments where you spam the entire mag into an enemy with no effect.

This system would work with pretty much any map. Only complication I can imagine is probably D-Day, but there they could just Increase the number of landing crafts or maybe spawn units on the beach directly.

The only issue that you might have is not being able to choose what point you specifically want to spawn close to, but it could be easily fixed by splitting the spawnline and still having an element of uncertainty for enemy units or pilots.

Let me know what you think about this.

Players should indeed spawn in a much larger radius, but I think allowing players to pick exactly where they end up spawning would make things abuseable and predictable.

Yeah, I though the same.

What could be done is this:

Spawnline21

With this, players can still choose what point do they want to attack/defend yet it would still keep forces spread out and with that keeping pilots from wasting their ammo.

I totally agree. It will make gameplay more realistic and will also lower the amount of spawncaping

Yeah, would be awesome it’s too easy to “spawn camp”/cutting enemy support with the heavy tanks in game.

Add this to the main suggestion will make it easier for the devs.

+1 this needs to be implements

I agree, also, if you are in a premade group, it would be nice to spawn next to each other.

I agree, I wont be able to get my mass rocket runs anymore but it would make for better gameplay

Yeah this would be great, especially if you can choose where to spawn along the line later.
