Why is the respawn timer so inaccurate?

[Sacro]

OP is right, respawn timer is a lie. It says 15s but if you actually count the period before it starts ticking, the black loading screen, the respawn animation, it's WAAAY longer than 15. What it means, is if you die twice, the match will probably be over by the time you can respawn lmao

IMO it should just be a static time, for the whole match, not increasing on each death. Especially in a mode like CC where skill means bugger all.
