Ghosting

I don't know if I am the only one its happened to or if it has happened to others, but the point is even though it rarely happens I still believe it should be taken into consideration... Well there I was the other day about to break a new high score for my wep master, it was titan wave, i got hit, and before you know it I'm ghosting; no problem so far, but I really get PO when I spawn right under the feet of a titan, not even a second and I'm dead.

I think there should be like a 1 to 2 seconds of invulnerability after you finish ghosting or else it defeats the cause of actually having ghost if your just going to prolong your death by dying at another location. Maybe it should be passive for everyone who ghosts or maybe it should be a skill to buy. Whatever the case I think it should be there

The titans cheated and made me lose a possible new high score...

sorry Elite but that's what happens when you die occasionally

you should try dieing more often and get the hang of the run like heck as soon as you spawn technique
and IMHO Titans are the biggest cheats anyways; Invis boulders, curve boulders, knuckle boulders , bounce me into bottom of their feet squishy technique, the list goes on ...

But I didn't have a chance to run, I died the instant i stopped ghosting.

must say thats so true... insted of solving ghosting issue i ask at see what rock hit me !

On Monster Mash I have plans to add another level (or few levels?) to give players some protection on exiting ghost. 1 hit total damage negation, or like 1 second of total invulnerability before expiring. Something like this is the sort of small marginal benefit that people should pay out the nose for though (IMO).

titans will track you while you ghost as I have seen,and they do seem to spawn camp as well, so ghosting in wave 6,14 is extra dangerous,
but what good is a coupla seconds when it takes that long for the boulders to reach you and kerSPLAT
the one hit invulnerability sounds interesting though

You gotta remember the term "relative safety". That is the decision made by the server as to when and where you spawn after ghosting.

The decision could very well mean that you ghosted from 8 titans and the relative safety means you will spawn among 4--still safer, right?

In essence, the server has spawned you at the safest place it can on the map. Road is correct--best have the translocator out and ready to run on the moment of spawning, just in case.

This has been going on for the last two years of my ghosting... I've endured it without complaint (at least out loud) so can you.

it is also about chance too. Does it happen all the time or some of the time.

Also, the ley out of the map also needs to be put into concideration, in the hanger level, they will spot you and try to kill you ASAP.

Also, what demon said, if say the server take into concideration that you spawn where no monsters are, you still have travel time, and during that travel time, monsters may be there for varying reasons. One might be because a player was there and the monsters gathered there or chased him/her there and you just happened to spawn.

There are lots of things to consider.
