Spawn Armour?
I was on a server last night prior to jumping on our, and I noticed something wierd. This guy seemed to be invincable till he fired his first shot. I emptied clip after clip into this guy and died over and over till I finally caught on. The guy said he was not cheating, rather it was a server setting "Spawn Armour." Somehow you cannot die till you fire ur 1st shot. Is this an actual setting, or is it a cheat not picked up by PB?
Find it, Sight it, Shoot it! :icon24:

Re: Spawn Armour?
You're invincible when you spawn until you fire your first shot or for ten seconds or something. It's to prevent spawn campers.

Re: Spawn Armour?
That's pretty cool, and explains why my claymores-in-the-spawn failed a few times.

Re: Spawn Armour?
Hmm... that's not so cool. Clays can play an important role in base defence/capture and to have them be ineffective is frustrating.

I think claymores are intended for defense in JO so using them in an enemy bunker shouldn't work to prevent the spawn-and-die syndrome. Originally Posted by jex

Re: Spawn Armour?
I should clarify that I was using the clays to capture a spawn. I ran in, shot a guy, put clays at the entrances, then went prone on the roof and sniped. I intended the clays to prevent the enemy from getting to my position (they had already lost camp and couldn't spawn). What happened is that they got camp back, then a guy spawned and tripped both my clays and didn't die. So basically the 10-sec (or whatever it is) no-die period allows spawners to act as mineclearing machines.

Re: Spawn Armour?
yeah this is what I meant. I also drop clays as soon as I get in a base if I've got my defending head on. Sometimes it can mean the difference between you living and dying. For example, Say you lay 4 clays and have people in the zone. They Know you're there but not where. You hide hoping your clays will help you but the spawn armour works against you.
