    If you're like me, then Gungame is one of your least favorite game modes. Why? For me, its because I spawn, my screen loads, I get shot, I die, then I spawn again. Not so fun.

    I'm playing on Windows Vista (Don't hate on me now, I know how much it sucks) and my computer as a whole is really slow, so for Gungame, by the time my screen loads, I'm getting knocked into the air, and my spawn protection wears off, and then I die.

    I think that this is an experience for alot of people besides me though if I'm not mistaken.

    So my suggestions: Make a couple maps, or do a map competition or something, for maps that can be used for other game modes, but are designed specifically around Gungame. I think it would be cool if people could post their ideas here for what they want to see in a Gungame map.

    Here's what I personally would like to see: Big, mainly open aired maps with more spawn places than there are people so that you stand a good chance of not spawning by a camper. Gungame could be alot of fun if you had to spend some time seeking people out.

    I think though the best way to fix spawn camping in Gungame/getting killed immediately is if there were a bunch of small sheltered spawn chambers surrounding the edge of the map, and players could step onto a platform with sponge to then jump into the map. This way, you have a chance to get your bearings without getting killed immediately.

    What are your thoughts and ideas?

    Well, I like to play gungame for fun sometimes, but if you lag too much on it or don't like it at all you can do /spawn and wait it out, or switch server numbers. Others might like gungame the way it is so I don't think it needs to be edited.

    Get rid of Windows Vista, as soon it won't be supported anymore.

    I only die often after spawning when I'm having lag, this can be really annoying. But if my minecraft is running fine I don't have that problem. :smile:

    I don't find spawn camping to be a problem. Very rarely do I spawn in and get killed immediately. However, like Dan said, sometimes I spawn in on Gungame and I am killed instantly. This is usually due to lag.

    My problem: instantly shooting up to 2500 ping in the match.
    Is this in the wrong section? Shouldnt this be in server ideas?

    It's called spawn camping, Some people are smart enough to master the spawns.

    It's randomly chosen to where you spawn (I think..) You should at least get a 2 second resistance just so there isn't and spawn camping. I don't like to spawn camp people but sometimes when I'm rapid firing I hit others that are just spawning in. There isn't much you can do about it really.

    The two second resistance doesn't do much because I'm being shot at which knocks me back and makes it hard for me to move since I'm mid air.

    Alot of people have also suggested to me just to /spawn, but that means I can't play gungame, which is only a sollution if I dont want to play gungame, but I do, I only wish I had less lag.

    As for ditching vista, I wish I could :stuck_out_tongue: but there's that slight issue of money. I'm trying to save up for college right now, so buying a computer isnt an ideal option.

    I love gungame I win atleast 2 games nearly every day xD
    I do however dislike when you are spawn camped, but there is a spawn protection already set, I do think this needs to possibly be increased for players with a low ping like 600ms +
