When the match starts, it always spawns parts of both teams in the same spot. People spawn, get spawn killed, spawn again, get spawn killed again, spawn, hide behind the spawn point, get to spawn kill others.
It happens until someone has captured a point.

Yep. It can get frustrating. It's happened to me many a times where as soon as the match starts, I either kill a few or they kill me. I think the logical solution is to spawn the teams away from each other's default spawn.Quote:

It's not just the 360 it happens on the PC as well, it is free points when you start out I always am ready to murder the spawners and then move on but I agree it seems odd and should be changed.
It happens on all systems. It just leads to a bunch of deaths while people are still in loading screens.
What they need is two extra capture points. Each team starts with one captured at the start of the match.
It's possible for the other team to capture that point, but not for the first quarter of the match.
Why would you want to change it? it's fun as hell, you load in and there's people all around you fighting already.
Dying while loading is lame.Quote:

I could accept a "race start" with everybody on their rollers in one line, both teams, and it's a race to the points where the fighting starts.
But spawning right next to the enemy without being able to move, dying before you actually get into the game, shooting someone who's not moving because he's not really "there" yet? Not my idea of competitive fun...
My question is why would someone start the teammates and the enemy in the same spawn, in the first place? I could only understand it if it was a "free for all" game mode.
Shadow War is very similar to Conquest on Battlefield. When the game starts, all the flags are neutral. Both teams have their on base. Each team has a fair chance to control the closest flag near their base. Everything is game after that. Shadow War is not small like PvP, but in TDM each team spawns on opposite sides of the map. So doesn't PvE start on the opposite sides of the map?
It would definitely help avoid some of the insta deaths when the match begins.
What region Shadow War is it happening on?
