I was told that in COD4 there is no spawning to squad leaders due to the lack of?  I wish this and Crysis would have added these in as options if nothing else on the servers.  Quake Wars sucks on the same reasson I feel, the lack of spawning to a team mate.

While you cant spawn by squadleaders because there arent any, the spawning system in COD4 lets you spawn by the nearest teamate. However on many occasions you might spawn by a teamate right in the middle of a firefight and end up dead right away...Trust me it happens alot.

I don't really understand how the spawning time/positioning works.



Can anyone enlighten me?!

generally its just where most of your teammate are in deathmatch

the only problem is when you spawn right in front of a shotgunner, or right under an airstrike (doesn't happen too often but sometimes if you take a couple steps you are in the kill zone of one)

One time I died from an airstrike, spawned, and died again from the same airstrike.

The spawning system I think is one of the worst parts, but that isn't saying much. Generally it works pretty well.

yeah, usually you won't actually spawn in a place that you die instantly (helicopter is an exception) BUT you might walk around a corner and meet your death 10,000 ways because where you spawned was safe. 
same thing has happened to me too, most aggravating

What the hell people, this isn't BF2.  Spawning on squad leaders...  What the hell...

...well after playing for almost 3 years i have found that when playing with a friend on a phone it's nice to have a game where we are in close contact on each other as we play.  Playing now come down to getting back in a base and keeping the aircraft on the ground, pissing people off, and being called names when others can not fight their way out of a wet paper bag...

That is why I was so disappointed, the lack of close team play, and base rapping.

Yes.  Head phones via ma-bell, vs. VOIP = much better game play.

Yeah well, my friend and I use ink and paper and we mailed them out to each other to communicate in game.  Needless to say, it was too late for him in game before he got my letter...  Damn Pony Express...

You were lucky.

I once died to an airstrike, then spawned into a chopper's cannon fire, then spawned into the same airstrike, then spawned into the barrel of a shotgunner, then spawned into a sniper's headshot. I then died to a Martyr and spawned into a new chopper, then spawned into a second airstrike.

But, you try telling youngsters that today, and they won't believe you.
