Port Assault Spawn - k4mi - 12-12-2012

I really love this map but the only stupid thing in the map is the spawn downstairs.
Because if you spawn there you will almost always be dead, especially on hard mode. Because the Nords will reach the stairs faster then you.
My Suggestion would be moving the spawn to the small area behind the houses, so its still dangerous but not your certain death.
That would prevent players to just pressing 'u' and wait till they can spawn safely.

The courtyard spawn might make it too easy. I still think it should be a Nord spawn instead Wink
To address the current issue I usually hold spawn on port assault, but if enough people are actually spawning below I put down a barrel near the static heavy cade (or pre-place one the round before) and use it to blow up most of the melee troops on the left spawn, giving people enough time to make it to safety. Alternatively, having 2-3 shielders holding the top (soaking up arrows) and bottom (blocking melee) of the stairs letting people pass behind them and having a healer spam surgeon kits will ensure a greater chance of survival.

Sure its not impossible to survive if you spawn downstairs, but in most of the public games it is.
And just think about new players / redshirts they wont have a chance in normal ( in later spawns )

Perhaps just limit the bottom spawn are to the side nearest the bridge that way they can run either way should they choose to charge to there death Smile

Or just make it so they spawn slightly slower (the nords), however, I FRIGGEN AGREE.
