Inside and Outside Spawn?

[Boomer]

Why are we stuck with only one spawn? I understand for some game types it would be harder to keep track of 2 spawns but on a game like Team Deathmatch why is there not an inside spawn like the bus stop and a outside spawn like the jail (or what ever building is in the far back). This way if a team is stuck at one spawn they could move to the other spawn, also it would help when one team is dominating the outside.

Great idea.

I agree. That's a good idea. I can't believe that's slipped by everyone until now.

Realistically, I have never had a problem moving wherever on the field, whenever I need to. What it comes down to is having a good motivational "leader" and the courage to get shot. Half of the problems that people have when they play airsoft, especially CQB, is the fact that they are afraid to take a hit. Just yesterday for example I was outside the majority of a control point game. Came inside to respawn and found that the enemy team had pushed onto our side of the building and my team was hiding and trying to shoot from the back. I respawned, yelled that this was my side, and moved up. Sure I got shot, but not before I took out three people and gave my team the courage to move up and take back the area we needed to.

Part of your game strategy always needs to include protection of your spawn, its part of the game. If you are getting pinned, there is always a way out, you just need to find it.

I do the same thing when we are stuck at spawn but I like the idea of an outside spawn.

Also the other team could be hold back both the outside and inside spawn it just makes it more of a challenge to get both spawns locked down.

Realistically; if there is one team spawning inside and another team spawning outside [with the exception of attack and defend] just turns into people shooting at each other out of the doors.

There are some game types that obviously require a team to spawn inside and another to spawn outside but as far as games go in general I think we have a good thing going.

If it isn't broken; don't fix it.

Yeah most games are fine with one spawn but there are a few it would be fun to start outside on.
Such as the game where both teams fight for one point and must hold until the timer is up and then the spot moves. It would be helpful to have an outside spawn.

If it isn't broken; enhance it?

Thanks for the feedback.

What I think would be cool, was if we did a multi-teams game. Have 3 teams, one spawning outside and the other 2 at the main spawn points.

[Sham]

Then you have two teams shooting out doors and one team shooting in the doors.

For my part, I wasn't thinking about the team getting stuck at a spawn issue, because like Maverick, it's never really an issue for me. I've had to run out repeatedly to attack the people pinning us in and get shot but eventually un-stick our spawn. I was looking at it mostly from the perspective of not having to run all the way back inside if you die outside. On some games this would cause problems, but in a team deathmatch kind of game, it would be very convenient.
