I have no clue why people are complaining about respawn times... I have yet to notice anything wrong.

Respawns are every 30 seconds Midway, so if you get killed RIGHT after a respawn get prepared to wait.

I know they are 30 seconds from time to time, but I still see no problem. You just need patience. I get it from playing Battlefield Project Reality... try waiting 60+ seconds and then having to wait at least a few more minutes just to get back to the front line.

I played it for a couple hours tonight, great game. I had a lot of fun screwing around on pretty much all the classes. My favorites were the pyro and the spy. I could get used to the scout, I think.
I had no problems whatsoever with the respawn times, most of mine were 7 seconds long, I've had longer respawns playing DoD: S depending. I had a few that were ~20 seconds, but still nothing major.
Lots of fun, I'll be playing it quite a bit I think. And of course will still remain active in DoD.

To all the naysayers because your favourite weapons weren't in, apparently they haven't finished all the weapons. (Such as the fire rocket launcher and the nail gun).
So just wait until the final product is out and you'll be able to use all those things.
This is what I heard, don't hold me to it if they're wrong... But I don't think they are.

Ha... that game was fun! I liked the movie part on the map, how you would join a team with the door, and about everything.
The Engineer is still the best, and the spy is ever better now. Too bad you could not feign death.
I'm starting to use Solider a lot also.

That's fine, the wait and all in Battlefield; however, with a game like TF2, that should be faster-paced than a World War 2 shooter, the respawns should be much faster. My average wait in TF2 is about 17 seconds. In DOD:S it's 4 seconds. Something is wrong there.
Not to mention Sudden Death, where if you die early, you have to wait three to four minutes! It's faster to switch servers!
I will be playing some still, as my son likes watching it, but I will be in DOD:S 90% of my gaming time.

I fully understand. During sudden death, it's best to hop over to the spy. It's much easier to stay alive, and for longer. I hope to see you on from time to time!

Does anybody think they will limit classes? Because that would really be a punch in the gut for the game. Or ff, god that would be terrible. Any of you think Valve might decide to do that?

Those are both server side commands, so -if- they happen to, which is doubtful, it would be an easy fix.
