Hey guys this is InsanePickaxe here, I decided I would post this thread as an idea for where players spawn in death match, seeing as this has affected me on numerous occasions and maybe you guys as well.
Now I'm not talking about the idea of having a completely new death match arena which has been discussed and I personally think is a very good idea. Assuming the idea of a new death match arena does get implemented that will still take a while because they would have to make the arena and add it into all the servers. However the new death match arena may not get approved in which case we'd stick with the corn death match anyway.
So moving onto my idea I personally find it annoying that when you spawn for death match the three of you spawn with only one pedestal between each other and some unlucky person is left stuck in the middle. This can prove as quite a big dis-advantage if you are left stuck in the middle because you can easily get attacked from both sides where as the other two only have one side they can get attacked from. Occasionally I find my self right from the start getting just hit from player to player with little I can do which feels extremely unfair seeing as I have played the whole game and had a good chance of winning if it weren't for that spawn place.
There is a simple solution to this as well. If they make the characters all spawn the same amount of blocks away from each other then there can be no player with an advantage or dis-advantage.
Thanks all who have read this suggestion leave me a comment saying if this has ever affected you at all and if you think it is worth changing.

It's never really affected me. If there's a team of 2 in deathmatch I see how that can get their bows out and shoot you, other than that they can't do much. All you have to do is run straight through corn (chest area) and leave them two to fight. It's simple really. Plus it's not really unfair to say that you always spawn in the middle. You have that 10 seconds before deathmatch begins to scan the area and make a plan. (That's what I do). Also I think the spawning is totally random.. (Correct me if i'm wrong) But yeah. I guess it's just unfortunate but I do see where you're coming from.

True, but it's just one of those things, especially if there is a team, they can shoot/volleyball you, because they won't fight until you're dead. Which is when I implement something against my name, fire. Flint and steels save my life over half the time :p :D

Yup >:D. Best weapon of pure epic destruction ever, 9/10 people that have slightly better/very good armor and sword that come for me die, because I light them on fire once, shoot them with a bow, if they run keep sniping, and if they keep charging, light them up again, and bam. Le victory.

Yup I definitely like this idea. Personally I haven't been affected by this but I would love more room to move around :)
