Call Of Duty: Black Ops 3 - 10 Past Game-Breaking Issues That Must Be Fixed
5. Bad Spawn-Points
Spawn points are something that have been getting worse with recent titles such as Ghosts and Advanced Warfare. It’s especially noticeable in the Free-for-All and Team Death Match game modes where players are often times spawned closely adjacent to each other.
'Spawn trapping' is another exploit that is easy to execute and can ruin a game almost as badly as hacking. In a spawn trap, a group of players organise themselves and stationary equipment in a way that forces the other players to all spawn exclusively in one spot, with no chance to retaliate or escape. In certain maps from Modern Warfare 3 such as Dome or Free Fall from Ghosts, spawn traps were especially easy to orchestrate.
Solution: A general overhaul of the spawning system is long overdue. Squad spawns like the ones in the Battlefield series of games could be an interesting change. Spawn invulnerability could also be good, if it only activated upon dieing rapidly. That would help prevent spawn trapping, and give players a break in exploitative rounds.
