Does this frustrate anyone else? It would be fine if it only lasted 1-2 seconds, but 7 full seconds?! That's way too long.
That is literally enough time to run across Eden's Gate Arena, kill the enemy team and run back.
The reason nuketown and shovel dodgers are so popular is because of the spawn shield, it's the only way people get kills.
This is why bigger maps get downvoted because people all around suck? Return the skill please, spawn shields shouldn't determine who wins a gun fight.
