So this is fair, down to 68% in my CN9-A on caustic valley before I can group up with with the rest of my team, because for some reason one of the lances needs to be closer to the enemy than my own damn team. All from LRMs from a goddamn warhawk. I only barely survived spawning and running to my team.
Thats ******* ridiculous. It's fine PGI, I didn't want to help my team at all, no, rather I prefer being shot to pieces before I can even find cover. FROM ******* SPAWN.

Change the spawn points to better reflect teamplay, because it is not fun being stripped of armor because I spawn closer to the enemy than my own damn team.

As such, I do not recommend this game to people if they want to have fun, because this is not fun.

How could you possibly get stripped at spawn in a Cent? If you said something slow, like a DWF, KGC, or an Atlas without ECM, I would say... that's fair. But if you can't get out of line of sight from enemy LRMs in a medium mech at the beginning of a match then you haven't learned the map well enough, because it shouldn't be a problem at all.

That said, yes, the spawns are terrible. But don't use it as an excuse.

There was no cover from where I spawned, that was the issue. All i got hit by were LRMs, I was torso twisting and trying to spread as much damage as possible. But alas, in the 15 seconds it took for me to get to any resemblance of cover I had lost most of my armor. From a Warhawk standing still at 600+ meters. I have been playing for well over a year now so I do know the maps, but only in the past 4 months has this started being an issue. It was either run to the rest of my team and cover or stay at my spawn point and die. My lance go pretty messed up in the first 30 seconds.

Also, I started moving as soon as I could towards my team when the game started, at 98kph. If I had recorded that gameplay and uploaded it you would understand my frustration.

Edit: Woops, didn't realise I was on my other account for stat tracking.

Which spawn point in which game mode did you start from?
