Step 1.
Once you join in the lobby quickly go to the icon of an eye.

I honestly think they should just get rid of the deploy time thing since it has no usefulness whatsoever except wasting 15 seconds of our lives…

(Vocopi) #3

Well they said its for a specific reason I do not remember why but I saw a post of someone complaining about the timer and i’ve known about this since the spectate was there so I thought I would share! :slight_smile:

Ohhh, I’m just worried that not all content will be well synced and some glitchy things will happen.
Cause as I’ve copy and pasted many times for the deploy time:
SD has said it’s meant to sync the player’s information like models, loadouts, ranks and skill level when you’re deploying. So even if you’re already in-game screen, you still need to stand there for 15 seconds waiting for the server to sync either way. So they will not change the lock-in or the intro for map startups.

@Xavien Hmm I have not really noticed anything different from waiting and using this method but then again I have not tested this in the higher quality settings I play on minimal I’ll try to test it out soon enough.

omg nice workaround!!

Now Splash Damage please! Make a new button for this!

(Vocopi) #7

The only big different I really noticed were the team colors were yellow and purple even after i left spectate mode thats about it and it only happens every once in awhile like this.

@Vicious I freaking love ya dude!!!

This should be in game guides…and stickied…

Edit: I wonder how long it takes for this to get patched.

(Vocopi) #9

@SiegeFace I TRY

I give it a week i’ve known about it forever I did not know that no one knew about it or atleast from people I asked and every single response would be “OMG TY”

(Aazhyd) #10

I will definitely try this! Thanx.

(Daergar) #11

Seems like a glitch, but I will sure use it until it’s fixed.

That said, it’d be nice if they actually slotted you into the deployment and not a standard 15 seconds, syncing or no syncing.

(SirSwag) #12

This is very helpful. Thank you. I’m just worried that this may lead to imbalance.

(Vocopi) #13

@Daergar If it’s frowned upon I will take it off ASAP but I mean it seems ok for now and if it is not i’m sure they’ll patch it soon enough.

@SirSwag Mmm What do you mean by imbalance?Like people waiting to switch to a winning team or something like that, cause if so that is already done by many players.

(Jostabeere) #14

I tried it and the game didn’t put me in the game for a long time after my death cooldown went to 00:00.

They told me, multiple times, that the reason why is so you and everyone could load in all the assets gracefully. I disputed this by showing them how you were already loaded in long before the deploy timer was up via a bug that allowed you to see your own model (spamming an F key caused it). They finally changed things somewhat recently to be a lot faster and more in-line with actual loading times.

@Jostabeere Odd i’ve never had that happen.

I was like…I join, switch to a team, get the death-counter doen to 0 and it stays there for 10-15 secs before I actually spawn.

(ImSploosh) #18

That 588 ping though.

(Szakalot) #19

if you do this you screw up game balance. wait 15sec to get a good game? ill take that

And people like him never get kicked while the game kicks me automatically for having a 300 ping on South AM server… :rage:
