Re: Call of Duty: Advanced Warfare
See I've seen a lot of people complain about getting "shot in the back" and "terrible spawns". If you watch the two videos posted you will notice most my runs were ended by getting shot in the back but it is far from a big issue because YOUR TEAM is who affects the spawns.
I see it all the time and it drives me CRAZY!!!! I will use the map Ascend as a example.
Ok, in a game with randoms you are going to find this real difficult to control but if you can fill up a squad with OS guys then you can dictate the spawns much better. You don't want to push the map to the opposite side near their original spawns. What you are going to do is flip the spawning locations behind your own team. What you will notice is you want setup locations near the middle of the map and battles to form around those middle sections. When I played a lot of clan competitive shooters back in the day, everyone was assigned lanes on each map. You goal was to lock down those lanes and only those lanes.

Lets take the very child like diagram I constructed to show the proper way lol. Red is the 3 lanes that should be divided evenly between the squad, 2 players per lane. You have left, middle, and right (there is a 4th lane of under but that is a special case). If both pairs hit those lanes then STOP to control those lanes 1) you will get more kills and 2) if your teammate dies he will spawn back near the original spawn.
Red lines represent setup locations to control a lane
Yellow line represent cone of coverage from your location
Blue is your lanes
Now its important to remember the moment you lose a lane, the enemy team is most likely going to flip the spawns. They going to be sprinting all over the map causing the game to find spawn locations for you which could be anywhere. This control of lanes will constantly be adjusting, but the important thing to remember...........Don't just go sprinting all over the map.....You will cause the game engine to spawn enemies behind "enemy lines", thus causing the "shot in the back" syndrome.
Watch this video to see what I mean about "Lane control". You will see I take the middle lane off the start and setup at top of stairs. I do some flipping to the right side later, but mainly control the middle. I think this shows good example of what I mean when I say setup in a location and don't go sprinting everywhere.
