Respawn Bug - Fine Tuning Update v48857 - 19/08/2015

On whitechapel, got a strange re-spawn bug where i died and was gibbed by a nader on the stroke of respawn, the timer went back to 2s meanwhile I was in freecam mode, then respawned in a kindof dropped in way.

I’ve noticed this a couple of times as well - it actually jumped back to 5s for me one time.

EDIT this is really bad actually - it can cause you to miss an entire wave and be waiting 20 seconds for no reason (causing instant loss on Chapel just now :frowning: )

There is a bug where you can free spec/fly around the map while waiting to respawn. This actually delays your spawn. Longest I have experienced is 4 seconds of free spec (spawning in at 19s left on the timer).

happened to me too.

one bug down, two bugs up xd

I found pressing one of the merc selection F1/2/3s might get you spawned

Its now saying ‘press K to respawn’ as well now rather than space (I’m already dead so I shouldn’t have to /kill again :))

Got that one too, but only for very short times. Very disorienting…

As of today that problem seems to have disappeared for me. Not sure if this is connected, but there also seems to have been a delay before i was able to switch to melee after spawning. This has also disappeared now.

for me its worse; used to go to free-fly but able to spawn immediately, now i was forced to wait like other people described.
