    Enemies spawning feet away during a firefight

    I am trying to understand the point of enemies spawning into the game feet away from me during a firefight. More common now since the last maintenance. I have been in multiple gun battles and have had a team of enemies just magically spawn feet away from my location. They're not coming out of a building or out of a manhole.


    Separate from the above there are enemies coming out of a building after spawning during an attack on a convoy who seem to have super speed when running. I mean they move as if they're set to be 3x's faster than a normal run speed.

    There's a noticeable number of enemies that pile on during an attack on a control point. For example as soon as I start an attack on a Control Point an elite patrol, up armored convoy or a random patrol will instantly spawn a block away.


    Is all of this supposed to be happening?

    yes, anytime you're doing an activity there's always something that spawns in between you and the activity, The group appearing in front of you is probably their invisible and then they pop in. Used to happen a lot more they have issues with server synchronization, no the pop in is not supposed to be happening

    Read above, if the enemy's own's the section then there's going to be more patrols if you own the section then there's going to be more of your patrols. Why because they're trying to interject challenge

    Yup, so never, ever sit near a known spawn point.

    But there ís the magic stealth spawning NPC. They will just pop into existance without warning/no show on minimap. Doesn't occur very often for me, but enough to be pretty paranoid about it.

    feet away? literally no feet textures? are they floating by the torso or are they like in the ground?
