Improved SLSB

[Gobi_man]

Anyone done any research into the improved Squad Leader Spawn Beacon that came as an unlock with NS?

How much does it reduce time between spawns for your squad?

Cheers

Spawntime is reduced from 15s to 10s, if you have the SLSB selected as spawn before you die.

Do you mean "1337"?
I think that is meant as a joke for the elite.

It is 10 seconds, but if you want confirmation just do a search, it was discussed a lot when NS came out.

I unlocked it and always use beacons while being the SL. But i've personally never seen a 10 or 13 second spawn, So i guess only the ppl in my squad see benefit from this Unlock.

:laugh::laugh: i never noticed that. nice to know that they still have a funny side!!

the next unlock should have "OMG haXor D3stroyer" on it! or something

Quemical, your squadmates have to select the beacon as a spawn point before they die for it to work.

It's like: "Hmm Johnson, looks like you chose your squad leader's RPU before you died, ok off you go!" Heh while all the other dead soldiers are whining that they can't go 5 seconds earlier :P

It would have been fitting if the IDS-1 had "WallHax active" in its display when used :)

Surely this beacon is bad as it reduces possible revive time by 5 seconds?

Just dont select the beacon until after death if that worries you.
But getting revived on a pbulic server is a rare thing anyway.
