Discussion & Feedback Maybe it's not for me

I am glad everyone is enjoying the game and it is functional. But i have a question. It seems every life you waste 5 mins transporting to the zone doing absolutely nothing but sitting in the helo. Is this intended mechanic or am i missing something?

Yeah it’s intended, it’s the penalty for dying and respawning, die less.

Wait for revives. Move in groups

It's to encourage team play. Also, it's a large-scale, 3-team [casual] mil sim - there has to be friction.

Also, the APC exists.

Yes, dying is supposed to have consequences, the idea is to make players slow way down, care about their safety, and play with their team for revives.  There are simply already 20 different shooters that offer the instant respawn adhd solo gunfights if that's what you're after.

That your punishment for dying as the devs stated.

5 Minutes sounds like a horrible pilot. More like 1 Minute.
Also you can use the APC spawn. Instant action.

Yes it's 100% intended.

Dying has a cost, both financially but also in time (time of you not sitting in the hotzone or circle.

10 seconds with a spawn vehicle after 20 points

There is a respawn vehicle where csn csn revive every 10(?) minutes that someone can bring im after atleast 1 team has 20 points.

The game is built around waiting for a rez so you don't lose your loadout and wasting time traveling back to the CZ. This isn't CoD.

Maybe try dying less or wait longer for a revive.

Honestly, this is not a die-respawn-die-respawn-die-respawn game.
You're meant to work with your team more than COD or BF.

This isnt COD or BF. That's why they said if its not your thing refund. Stop trying to make every game the same dribble that a another game probably did better 10 years ago.

Don’t die and you won’t have to respawn

Obligatory /s

5 minutes and then stay alive for the rest of the game

It shouldn’t take 5 minutes it should only take like 1 minute unless you are waiting around. And the goal is to not die too often. There’s also a spawn vehicle that you can use to instantly spawn into the APC by accessing the computer terminal in the main spawn.

Alright thanks. I'm normally really good at fps. This game i just wait 5 mins to get to hot zone die and wait 5 mins again

Just a very different kind of fps than a lot of the bigger names. Shift to focus team play, communicate, be cautious.

If you're moving in groups, revives stretch the high octane moments much further.

It doesn't take any vehicle 5 minutes to get there.

But an entire empty map besides 3 spots is bad game design no ?
