Spawn arty only lasts until the 3/4 minute timer is up for the defenders.

If one of the players 'quick deploys' the spawn artillery shouldn't drop from that point on.

 Step out of the way. He'll keep going until he hits a wall, that being Akranadas. Let him go unmolested, his journey will take less time. |

well, then it should fldash, because allies can lure axis defense into spawn arty
for example the church on rtc, its so close to one of the player's spawn, sometime, when you put unit inside, you will get artied, because the door is at the front.
allies player can use this spawn arty to their advantage by sticking a hmg squad into the church

Erm, what?
The real problem with quick-spawn artillery is that we had players use bikes or other quick units to essentially drop friendly fire on the units that were coming in quickly.
EDIT: Oh, and very smooth making it sound like Allies can only do this. Blatant bias ftw!

Yes, after ten seconds. IIRC, the spawn radius is 120-130. In ten seconds a fullspeed bike or jeep could easily get close to the oncoming troops to cause hell. |

ignorance isn't an excuse.. 4CP - Overpower (Decreased deployment time for team by 60, 35, 25, 20s) 8CP - Overwhelm (Triples the potency of Overpower) |

I believe that if you get too close to the spawn you'll get the mine under you regardless of the 10 second rule.

Either maps need to be fixed accordingly, or the artillery radius reduced again.

That's because the allied deployment bonuses apply to individual players. However, the spawn arty protection is gone when at least one player deploys, regardless of the timer. |

I too thought that it was set so that once a attacker early deploys the spawn artillery is then shut off, so that people cant exploit it as they have in the past.

Guys, you misunderstood me. As soon as any attacker deploys, spawn artillery is disabled.

Be aware though that just because they can deploy early doesn't mean they have and although you might get the 'airbourne drops in our area' message, the spawn arty is likely to still be on.
