223rem@live.com 6 Posted January 1, 2014 (edited) Can there be a fix to the new spawn system please? I spawn in the same general area/place everytime I respawn now. I keep spawning in the South East part of the map. In 2 hours of dying and respawning, I have not spawned once in the South West, but all my spawns have been around/in Kamyshovo with two exceptions of spawning once in Electro and spawning once somehow in Stary Sobor. PROOF: Me dying and respawning somehow in/around Kamyshovo. About 7 times. http://steamcommunity.com/profiles/76561197971695886/screenshots/ Note: The ones when the lady is crouching are when the zombies knocked me unconscious and I just left and rejoined the server to respawn. So again, please fix the new spawn system. Edited January 1, 2014 by hsaddam 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
IkaikaKekai 1957 Posted January 1, 2014 This is the 'fix'. In all that time you keep respawning you could have geared up and gotten to Balota, or even NWAF or NEAF. 14 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

dallas 5195 Posted January 1, 2014 (edited) I hope the fix means, if you die close to your spawn, you spawn there again. And that people, who are purposely killing themselves, don't realize this and waste hours on respawning over and over the same place. Please god please, tell me this is what's happening.

Qu1n 140 Posted January 1, 2014 You know I'm getting kind of sick of your hostile attitude towards people giving honest feedback over the spawn changes, We have every right to tell them we don't like it. That's what the alpha is for, stop defending every single change and witch hunting us for giving our opinions of it. 7 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

That's what the alpha is for, stop defending every single change and witch hunting us for giving our opinions of it.What you don't realize is that the feedback isn't the problem (usually), The problem is the reason for the feedback. The people complaining about the new spawn points don't like them for one reason. They now actually have to put effort behind getting firearms. They can't just spawn and have a firearm inside 5 minutes running either to Balota or Pavlovo. You have to travel a good distance and search along the way for gear instead of just grabbing all the "best loot" right away and shooting people. DayZ wasn't made to be easy. This change in spawn points reflects that. 14 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

That's what the alpha is for, stop defending every single change and witch hunting us for giving our opinions of it. ^^ This! I have yet to die so I cannot give my opinion on the new spawns just yet, but from what I have heard it is causing some crazy immediate bloodbaths and it has reduced the area in which KoS bandits have to hunt for targets. Spawns need to be spaced out, away from military grade zones but not so you will bump into other survivors or bandits from the get go. My last spawn ended up with me somewhere in the centre of the map and I overshot the NWAF and ended up running to the top left hand corner near the de-bug field...

DemonGroover 8836 Posted January 1, 2014 It shouldn't matter where you spawn. Get the hell outta there, gear up and enjoy. I haven't respawned yet so i cant comment but i actually like the idea of the Cherno/Elektro/Balota spawns being gone. It makes those spots a journey rather than a short hop upon spawning in. 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
223rem@live.com 6 Posted January 1, 2014 What I'm trying to say is that the DayZ spawning has not changed at all. It went from spawning only in the South West to spawning only in like one location in the South East. Where is the variety in the spawn locations? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
deevote 21 Posted January 1, 2014 This is DayZ. Don't expect to be spoonfed gear. Like in the mod(before the BS pick your spawn crap), you had few places that had military grade gear and usually you spawn half the map or farther away from those places. Now that Balota has barracks and military geared tents, I find it appropriate that it's farther IN the map and can't be a spawn point for obvious reasons. Seeing someone with an M4 should mean they worked for it. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

rassad 111 Posted January 1, 2014 PROOF: Me dying and respawning somehow in/around Kamyshovo. About 7 times. The whole idea of having one central spawn location, is to STOP PEOPLE SUICIDING. There are no other spawns, so nobody should need to suicide. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

This change in spawn points reflects that. No actually thats not why people dont like the new spawn system. Its because without vehicles it takes FOREVER to hook back up with your friends. Having the game be hard is one thing... adding an unneeded GRIND time sink is another. Running simulator is NOT fun 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
223rem@live.com 6 Posted January 2, 2014 People can die from other ways aside from suicide. For example, bandits took advantage of the new spawn point in Kamyshovo and conducted a massacre. http://forums.dayzgame.com/index.php?/topic/160783-an-issue-with-the-new-spawns-aka-the-kamyshovo-massacre/ But I guess I'm just being a whiny b*tch because you know, if you get spawned camped, you just gotta deal with it. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Xequinox90 80 Posted January 2, 2014 Funny how when people start complaining about spawn points , all the people who are up DayZ's arse start assuming it's becuase were not spawning in balota anymore , These people who always defend dev's decisions whatever the weather need to get a fucking grip , Idiots 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Karl87 17 Posted January 2, 2014 I love the new spawn system, learn to head up north, Im sick of hearing "please kill me I want to go to balota" everyone wants to spawn on a scoped mosin or in the middle of a firefight. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Zeet. 101 Posted January 2, 2014 Lets not spawn everyone in a general area where they can be easily picked off by bored bandits. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
phoboss 224 Posted January 2, 2014 Not a bug but a feature, and a great one at that. Spawning on the east rather than the south west is the best thing that happened to the spawn system since the release of the mod. Now you spawn far far away from the military loot and actually have to work to get there. I give all my beans for this change! 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Qu1n 140 Posted January 2, 2014 It isn't hostile attitude. You literally have not even the slightest clue about what this game is all about. We are correcting you so that you won't be embarrassed again in the future. I'm willing to bet you didn't even read a single post of mine on the subject, pretty much making this statement a troll but let me enlighten you I can understand ADDING spawns to the east coast.. but removing the south/west spawns completely is a bit.. meh. You want constructive feedback? I don't like the new spawn system and it seems i'm not alone in that. Give us MORE spawns, make it MORE random not less :) I'm all for the eastern spawns, What I don't like is the spawns being so clumped into one section of the map.. a particularly boring section of the map at that. If they want me to go east they should make the east interesting not just spawn us there 100% of the time. what was next?I don't understand what the game is about? What you mean is I'm not playing the game YOUR way, This is sandbox gameplay you don't get to dictate to me what the game is "all about" and hey, if you want to get down to the dick measuring, I have been playing since well early on in the mod back when it was still rockets mod, I'm perfectly aware of the game you ignorant fuck. Take your hostile attitude and shove it. The change to the spawns has annoyed enough people and enough attention has been brought to it I'm fairly positive we will see more spawns added back in the near future, pretty much what the alpha was for in the first place.

autoloon 285 Posted January 2, 2014 Sorry, but the spawns are fine. The only people who are annoyed are the people diving off rocks in Kamyshovo, and they were doing that well before the spawns were changed. If you love the mod so much why don't you return there? You can choose spawn from menu and play on server with starting AS50 and car up your ass. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Hero of Suburbia 40 Posted January 2, 2014 (edited) Kamyshovo isn't even that far from electro or cherno. Personally I headed from balota through Kamyshovo up to NEAF for a change of fucking scenary. I play as a bandit so obviously pickings are slimmer up there, but usually more interesting against better survivors. I have lost track of a few victims only to find them a couple towns over a few hours later. Edited January 2, 2014 by Hero of Suburbia Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Perhaps you should do some research before embarrassing YOURSELF eh? my post history backs up everything I'm saying.Either way I'm done with this conversation, you are clearly a troll and are just trying to provoke a response. I'm wondering if you even play the game or maybe you just like causing drama here. My feedback and many other's feedback on the change is already logged, I don't need to justify my opinions to you.
