how long does it take for a vehicle to spawn on the pad?

i.e. what's the time delay between a vehicle request and the corresponding spawn, and what's the time delay between 2 vehicle spawns.

thats a good question, that might violate the NDA, tho I dunno what u can say and what u cant when ur in beta and u got NDA. Coz I dont think it can b read. I would say not long time delay, no time delay at all?


im so stupid! yeah!

I think its rather quick. You would not wanna have to wait a long time for a car that you already took time to get a cert in it.

Not very long at all.

The time delay is probably very similar to how it was in Tribes 2, only a couple of seconds.

Yea, as long as different people are buying the tanks and are certified with them. But then, theres probably a delay when buying the same vehicle as the last guy bought, don't know for sure though.

ANYTHING is better than BF1942 where five guys try to grab a plane while one of the five plant bombs so if he doesn't get it no one does.

Utter BULLSHIT.

The vehicle spawn is fast, but you have to wait for the guy who just spawned it to move it off the pad before the next guy can make it. If everyone's being kewl you can crank out vehicles pretty Darn Quick!

Yea, it's just becomming pathetic, especialy in the Desert Combat MOD, that problem is increased 10 fold. The vehicles are so good people will blow eachother up just to get to them first. :ugh:
