Respawn abusers

[v1ktor 59]

I know 1.7.2.4 is going to remove the respawn button but I do not really agree with that change simply because i've been in many situations (broken leg in the middle of nowhere) (stuck in a rock/tree/car) where you cannot get the attention of zombies or other players.

Why not just have a 15-30 minute spawn lock? When a player dies a specific spawn location get's locked to them and if they die within a specific time range they will just keep respawning back in that exact location.

Yes, i guess if someone is into pvp and they spawn in cherno this would be great for abuse, but spawns in cherno/elektro could be excluded from this rule.

Thoughts/opinions?

Read 1 or 2 pages of the thread. People with a broken leg get the respawn button enabled, and people who spawn in debug, waterworld will be moved to the coast WITH their gear. I didn't notice any mention of being stuck in geometry. Does this even happen?

Yeah bud, those patch notes haven't been implemented yet, so before complaining about it you should probably either read the thread or wait until it's released.

These issues have been addressed and solved.

I dont see why you arent allowed to choose your spawn location, would eliminate this issue and strain it puts on some weaker servers, also... why ? whats the reason ?, "oh but hey he can just run back and grab his shit if we ended up shooting eachother in the face" or ... well we want you to feel like Dark Souls, lost and always bla bla bla, makes no sense give us Fixed choosable spawns please.

this decision isn't just to prevent abuse

it's also an authenticity/immersion decision
