Have you changed the spawn timer?

(RAAAAAAAAAAGE) #1

So i was just playing on Container City as the resistance and i noticed that the spawn wave was 25 seconds. Have i set it to this by some extreme accident? Or have you (SD) used your awesome netvars to change it. A few hours ago i was playing the same map with 20s spawns and was winning easily. This 5 second extra made it way more challenging as the resistance (they actually managed to get the bot to the crane!) :smiley:

EDIT: PS3 version if that matters :slight_smile:

A couple possibilities:

  1. Possibly capturing a command post changes them.
  2. Possibly they get shorter by 5 seconds if you haven’t done the objective in a set amount of time (worked that way on ETQW).

Don’t know if either is true, but you could test either one easily enough.

I’m pretty sure the spawn timer can be change in the server configure.

Ive seen map where the re-spawn varied between 25 to 9 sec

(not 100% sure though)

I just came back from the pink taco bar server and on container city we, the defense, had a 30 second spawn timer.

I’ll ask for it to be changed, I’m a full member in the Pink Taco Bar clan :smiley:

Why? It’s a good thing

As far as I know, it cannot be changed. I would like to be able to change the time it takes to load the newe map, currently it is 35 seconds, it should be 10 or 20.

Brink actually adjusts the spawn timers dynamically based on how the battle is progressing, so that’s probably what you’re seeing here.
