FreddyABSTAINI think this is personal preference whether one prefers tactical gameplay or chaos.

bones_was_hereYESIt makes sense for these gametypes because everyone respawns at the same time (and maps with team spawnpoints are usually CTF ones where each base has the colours of its team).
carnag3YESplayers spawning at their respective base spawn points is logical
CloudwalkNONE
divVerentYESFor one, mapper intent; OTOH Quake 2 freeze tag did not use team spawns, IIRC. I think maybe the real question is, should freezetag be played on maps that have "bases"? If yes, I'd think it'd be better to honor the team spawns; however maybe the real answer is, those maps aren't a good fit for FT, but that still says yes for this vote.

Dr. JaskaYESTeam coordination is hard enough as is in pubs/pugs where everyone spawns in chaos. This is a good change which enables players to coordinate more even though it's mostly subconsciously.

Spike29ABSTAINI rarely play FT, can't really give my opinion on the matter.

turkey_shootYESI assume this would prevent spawning into a location surrounded by enemy spawns, allowing one to join one's team at the start
