Will the round end if no one spawns?

[Siberian]

A short question here; if every player on one team refrains from spawning (even if they can) will the round then end, as it normally does when the team can't spawn and everyone is eventually killed?

No. Only if the other team then takes all of the flags.

Kind of reminds me of that old quote "What if they threw a war and no one came?"

I wonder though, if the score was near 1-2, if you refrain from spawning while the other team continues to, if that might do it. Unless ticket loss occurs automatically after the 15 second spawn time.

not quite true
some flags are white (ie neutral)
at beginnig of round
if 1 team has no one spawned
and there are NO uncappables
then as soon as the 'living' team turns all flags
*usually just 1 per team*
to their color or white
this means 'dead' team cannot spawn
ANYWHERE
and game ends in about 2 secs
this happens easily of one team has fast hardware
and 1 team has slow hardware
losing team never see ANY action
as all spawn points are gone b4 they arrive
sad, but true

conquest maps say on briefing screen, that the team that holds more than half the flags will cause the other team to lose tickets...

one team has fast hardware

lol......join a squad......

unless the entire team has poor hardware, and enters late..

..in which case the total points would be no more then 4x the total ammount of grey/enemy flags, minus any penalties for various team/self damage...making it not really worth it for either team
