Spawn protection for ZS?

Has it ever been considered in the past to add a sort of spawn protection for ZS?

I mean,
When people redeem towards the later waves, they tend to get decimated right away, and not have a chance to use their well-earned redeem.

Same thing for people who just joined the server, and spawned as a human in the middle of a wave.

5 or 10 seconds would be amazingly helpful.


Edit - Apparently, there is one, but the fact remains, it's not too effective.
Just a couple minutes ago, I was a fast zombie, and someone redeemed,
he happened to redeem RIGHT NEXT TO ME, and being the dick I am, attacked him before he could run
I killed him, end of story.

Not sure if you thing this in particular would be a good idea, but
-10 second Spawn protection
-Cloaked (So zombies can't/wont follow)
-Unable to shoot during spawn protection (To prevent free kills from cloaking)

The above might be a bad idea, or a good one. Iunno, just my suggestion.

But yeah, the current system isn't working all to well IMO.

i have an idea!  there should be a spawn meter on the top corner of your screen and when the zombie spawns the zombie is see through green... and if you shoot them your spawn meter will go up and if it goes up all the way you die ;)

the only spawn protection that there is now is for zombies, when there are more humans than there is zombies the zombies get a a boost/immunity protection for like 5 seconds. Also on another server they make it so the zombies are invisible for 5 seconds I think that would be a cool addition to prevent some spawn camping.

zombies can fend on for their selves... 5 seconds is just a head start... usually...

But I'm talking about a Spawn Protection for humans.

People spawn, but are still loading most of the time, or like I said before, not enough time to run away when you freshly redeem. In the middle of Round 7.

i think you should get protection for 20 seconds OR when you move... if you just connected... because i remember that i used to get rape at fear tower because sometimes when i join i get lag... so 5 seconds of spawn protection don't help...

If you redeem...:gtfo:... run for your life!

oh... well thats the negative thing with redeem... you don't get anything extra added to the redeem....

 :thumbsup: :thumbsup: :thumbsup:

This is a great idea. I remember when the map changed once, I pretty much spawned in a circle of zombies. Wasted all my ammo, ran for my life, but still ended up becoming a :zombie: in a matter of 30 seconds.

A timed thing may not be the best, coz maybe you went to get something to eat while the map loads, and you come back and be all like :nu: because you're a :zombie: because your spawn protection ran out. Maybe something more like, you have unlimited spawn protection until you move afew steps, or jump or something like that.
