    Seize map south spawn location a bit worse than the other two?

    Edit: Ooops I mean shatter not seize

    I feel like the south spawn in Shatter can use a bit of tweaking because you can see the base of both the NE and NW spawns from the centre of the map, while the south spawn's base is hidden by a hill.

    This makes it really hard for a south spawn team to judge whether someone is taking their base or not because you can't see the glowing ring around the base anymore. Instead of keeping an eye on the base from the choke, you have to go all the way up the hill which brings you further from the action in the middle.

    Here are the views of all 3 bases from the centre to show what I mean.





    South: can't see anything!



    I mean technically it's balanced since you have 1/3 chance of spawning there anyway, so if it does have a disadvantage you'll benefit from it sometimes and be penalised other times so that it all evens out. But still I think the hill should be removed.

    It is also a bit further from the spawn than the other two and is usually captured last at the start of the match giving that team a 2 to 4 points deficit. It might not look like much, but I have seen at least 1 tight match where it could have made a difference.

    You mean shatter. Because everyone knows in Seize that the North Spawn is the worst.

    You see the top of it, but not the circle around it which is what tells you someone is capturing it before it actually turns neutral. Gives you a head start to react.
