Why are the spawns so broken?

[Misanthrope Z]

I thought I was the only one spawning several blocks away after getting killed. Does anyone already know if it's a set distance or if it's random?

from what i've seen, the more someone gets killed, the farther away they get spawned.

 

as for WHERE they get spawned, that's completely random, unless you're out in the desert or near Fort Zancudo

Honestly, I really wish there was a "Spawn at Hospital" on death feature. Would really go a long way on curbing the spawnkills, and offer some measure of breathing room.

Kill victim, easy way out, continue killing victim at hospital.

I don't disagree with it as an option, but I personally (would) hate when I fall a bit too far, or crash a bit too hard, or get shot by someone who is a bit too much of a dick and end up all the way over at the hospital.

The Hydra spawns in the Airport drive me crazy. Takes three or four attempts sometimes because of Luxors and Titans spawning instead.

You're getting lucky with 3 or 4. I had one day where there was a lot of people around the international airport, it took me almost an hour to get a pegasus spawn.. geesus.. This and the gang attacks at the airports are the two things I hate (and I have real physical hate for these) the most.

Yeah the Gang Attacks are ridiculous. It's kind of understandable that they attack you for stealing the stuff that normally spawns there but if it's your own Pegasus vehicle they should leave you alone.

 

Bit of a kick in the teeth when you spend $3m on a Jet and then it's such a pain in the ass to get hold of.

They need crew respawns on location, like RDR had with posse leaders. Just make the respawning player have a ghost passive mode that lasts ten seconds as they spawn, so that they cant become a magical appearing ambush.

[Crunch McThornbody]

Yeah the spawn system is a pile-o-sh*te, and having Pegaus recall your vehicle if it gets stolen or you stop using it is bullsh*t, too.

 

Why can't WE control when our Pegasus vehicle gets recovered? Especially since the spawn system is crap and the locations are too few and far between, and if you call for a vehicle and don't even go near it to collect it then it seemingly stays on the map forever, but if you do go near it so it spawns and then go halfway across the map away from it they reclaim it.

 

I want the mechanic to deliver my vehicle again, too, I'm fed up of having to run a block to get it, sometimes further because it doesn't appear on the same f*cking street I'm in and there's no shortcuts nearby!

/\ i dunno trying to snipe the mechanic as he drives away from you to turn around legally while getting spawnkilled by 3/4 people was slightly annoying

And the players massing up there might make an instant FR war. Or Spawn point camping.

I doubt it is just me that has had this issue. Loading into a job and my personal vehicle is down the street and around the corner. What? Why? I call my mechanic while I'm standing on an overpass, and instead of the car spawning next to me or even on the same street, it appears on the highways below.

 

 

Glad i'm not the only one. I thought GTAO hated me.

This. There must be some reason they haven't implemented a menu where you can choose your Pegasus spawn because it's such an obvious thing to do.

They haven't done it because it's obvious.. Probably the truth is they have some plan to redo the pegasus system so that it's nice to use but it's on the heist like build timer... release date 2018 for new pegasus.

LOL on pc when I start a mission while in a helicopter and it keeps me as host I spawn in the mission in the air where I was but without my helicopter and die instantly.

[MrMunchs]

The vehicle spawn worked fine back in the days, so r* fixed it to annoy.

[Crunch McThornbody]

If you host a job then quit out back to freeroam before starting it, your PV will appear almost immediately next to you, closer than the mechanic delivers.

 

That trick also works when you're up on Mt Chiliad, where the mechanic refuses to deliver...

Everytime I get killed just next to LSC in Burton (downtown if you will), I spawn like 3 blocks away from my death point.

 

Anyone else experienced this?

Yeah whenever someone gets killed by the La Mesa LSC they always seem to spawn at the otherside of the bridge by the police station.

[Dragon_Of_Tragedy]

nothing like calling Pegasus when your called back with the damn four wheeler or tour bus in the way.

I have the same issue, despite setting the spawn option to "random"......

So you ain't the only one for who it doesn't work right.
