Why was the spawn timer changed from 5 seconds to 8 seconds? This takes a lot of flow out of the game. Weapons have a very quick TTK and we also have the longest respawn timer ever now.
Edit: in slayer

It’s always been 8 seconds across the board in all game modes except for FFA which was 6 seconds
That’s not true it has always been 5 seconds. I am talking about slayer not objective

Never seen a spawn timer for 5 seconds in any Halo. Idk what ur talking about.
It’s 8 and has always been 8
Go play halo 3 or halo 4 or halo 5. All of them have 5 seconds

8 seconds gives you just enough time to think about your poor life choices…

It’s either 6 or 8.
If your seeing a 5 that means the 1 second already passed.
There was never a 5 second spawn.
I agree, The spawns are way to long!! In all of my game modes settings in Custom Games I setup the following for a Capture The flag game.
- If you were killed by a user you will respawn in 3 Sconds!
- If you killed yourself you will respawn in 10 seconds! ( That is the lowest you can set that kinda sucks! )
- If you have the flag and die the flag will respawn in 10 seconds if nobody is around!
- If you touch the flag it will respawn instantly!!
It’s cause of Sprint+Slide. It’s always cause of Sprint+Slide and Clamber when they change something that worked in the past.
I still think Infinite works with 5 or 6s spawn timer, even with Sprint. But, removing Sprint makes it even better
