Player spawning system

[carelorum 0]

Hey everyone!

 

What kind of spawning system does this game have? Do I spawn close to the place I died in or do I spawn in other side of the map (On the coast) I’m just wondering because I’m thinking of starting to play this with few friends and if one of us dies, do we have to spend nearly an hour looking for him?

Thanks in advantage!  :)

You spawn at a random point from one of the fixed spawn points.

I've tried to find an official explanation of the spawn system but cannot find one so what follows is just from my experience.

 

Players will spawn in a randomly selected spawn point, which are mainly located on the South or East coast lines.  My recent experience is that it's significantly more likely to spawn in the South East corner, between Cherno and Solnichniy.  I've only twice recently spawned North of Solnichniy and haven't spawned West of Cherno in about 80 hours of play.  

 

It's common practice when playing with friends and spawning a long way away, to simply suicide and hope for a better location next time.

some spawns I got killed by a zombie when I just spawned in.
