The ten second respawn feels very excessive. It kills the momentum of a match and combined with the increased size of the maps means that it can take a really long time to get back into the action compared to past games. This seems to also hurt objective game types specifically.
343 I think the game would benefit from shorter respawn times.
yeah i do think respawn timers need to be halved all around. and spawns need fixed to I sometimes spawn near 2 enemies and other times so far from my team that anything I do is useless
I think it works well due to Halo Infinite having such a quick pace. Especially in ranked, any less would just not work at all.
Agreed, 5 second respawn would be reasonable. Spawning into the enemy occupied areas is super annoying too, I’ve run into that issue a few times on Behemoth.
I’m ok with slayer being near instant respawn but objective games shouldn’t have quick respawns.
I Think it should be based on map size. Behemoth could do with some decently shortened timers, but Aquarius? That map is already miniscule, with enemies basically guaranteed to be around every corner. If the respawns were any shorter, games like CTF would be insta-wins for whichever side throws the most people at the flag.
5 seconds at most maybe 3 for objective
