Mirrored weapon spawns need to be implemented

Whoever thought it would be a great idea to have different weapon spawns in different bases?

For example you can get slayer games in btb on deadlock where on the two weapon racks in the front of one base 2 BRs are spwaning in the other base there are 2 Commandos. This is soooooo stupid and needs to go. This creates unfair advantages which an arena shooter shouldnt have.

Fix this 343i or give reasons why this crap is a smart idea.

What about mirror vehicle drops as well, it’s ridiculous for a team to get a tank even when they’re winning

This is definitely a big one. There’s a 4v4 map that only spawns a banshee or scorpion on one side of the map. Huge problem.

Sure, i heavily support mirrored vehicle spawns as well.

Does my head in. I like the commando a lot more than most of the community but, it’s not an even exchange with the BR. One side has a clear headstart.

Nevermind the Weapons and Vehicles, some of the Equipment also need to be mirrored too, especially “Power Equipment”

One side has Camo the other had Overshields like whut.
Also, I REALLY hate randomized weapon racks every match. It doesn’t keep the map “interesting” or “fresh”, it just makes it frustrating that your side ends up with gimped racks while the enemy side may have actual useful stuff like Mangler/BR/Hydra etc.

The reason for all this and the issue with it is because 343 have Racks spawning weapons of the same Archetype of sorts, but in actuality, none of these weapons are made equal and cannot be spawned as such.

Example :
BR and Commando are both treated as precision tact rifles, but the truth is BR outshines the Commando by a longshot, and the Commando is literally a Sidekick with full auto (which is hilarious)

Needler and Sentinel Beam are both treated as “SMGs” which mean CQC auto weapons, but Needler has tracking and much easier use than the Sentinel beam, which is somehow now something like a Focus Rifle but with AR range.

Ravager and Hydra is the worst. Both are treated as “semi power” weapons, but we all know how bad the Ravager really is.

This sort of “archetype categorized spawns” need to be removed and have static weapon spawns mirrored on all maps in the future.
