Option for Spawn Protection in pro battles


 Share

Recommended Posts

Having the option to enable or disable spawn protection while creating a pro battle. Some pro battles really shoudn't have spawn protection for example any small firebird only battles and save the gold maps.

I think it would be very useful for this update to occur, that way we are allowed to turn off spawn protection in modes such as XP/BP. The spawn protection update made it so the person who dies and respawns almost always wins the next battle, making the whole mode less entertaining, and disabling this would restore the mode to the original, more entertaining and skill-based, way it was. This idea will be forwarded to Developers, and I hope they can have a similar viewpoint on the idea, and I hope this option can be added in the near future.

Spawn protection was unique in the fact that it affected both MMS and PRO game modes. This may work well in MMS because each MMS map has a devoted section for a team's base that's behind the flag. However, in PRO battles, you will see that this completely changes the way numerous battles are played in a bad way. In Polygon CP, you have people spawn in randomly, and making these temporarily immortal players be dispersed randomly throughout the map and any given time is just bad for the gameplay and extremely frustrating to play against, especially since it's polygon CP - there's no spawn killing. This applies to many other maps like Arena, Ping-Pong for example. Also, some other maps with actual bases have spawns that are close to the center of the map, so players can be immortal by the time they reach the middle of the map. Furthermore, I think this is only unique to Noise CTF, but those battles are even more of a stalemate since that the bases and spawn areas are extremely small and having everyone immortal in a base makes the gameplay slow.

 

Though I think this is great for XP/BP. I didn't like how you used to be able to begin charging up right before a ghost tank solidified when they spawn.

I just found out that since spawn protection was added, it's hard to train for MotS due to the fact that MotS battles are not actually in XP/BP mode. The spawn protection is off in private battles, but then the only way you can train with randoms is posting a link. Is there any way you can add an option to turn it on/off in battle customization settings? Thanks!

 

(Same applies for TOF)

I recently played a private battle in Island, and the battle was basically a contest between melees how to time your spawn protection right.

Maybe you're a low rank playing non format xpbp with ur mk1-mk6 equipments, and yup, there is spawn protetcion which gives huge advantages and make things unfair. Or, you may be trying to host a mini event of your own like save the gold, but the spawn protection allows the people trying to steal the gold go through hundreds of mines before dying and ruining it. So all I'm trying to say is maybe add an option in pro battles to turn off spawn protection or keep it on.

I feel like the spawn protection update was mainly for matchmaking. But in pro battles it's automatically on, unless it's a private game.
Most pro battles are with drugs off, so there is no reason to have spawn protection in the first place in my opinion. 
Anyway, let it be an option to have it on or off in pro battles.
