Basically getting into Siege mode blasts you with the whole - your mech is starting up, loading systems bla.

Granted it's kinda cool the first few times, but to people not yet familiar to the map, it's essentially a good 10 second delay to energy grab, since the waypoints don't display until it is all said and done.

Suggesting to either get rid of it, or at least have the waypoints visible from the get go.

I'm alright with the launcher within the first minute or 30 seconds of the game, but after that, its too annoying and can stop you from using your mech into a match you've entered into late

Radar doesnt work also, and you could be an easy prey for anyone.

I agree with this. The load time should be eliminated for late match entry.

As much as I love Shadi's awesome startup sequence, I agree that if you join mid-match, you should be exempt from it, if only because you can't fire, etc. until it finishes.

Alternatively, simply have being shot "kick some emergency backup system" that magically brings them to full power in an instant.

Just speed it up.
I like it, but it just doesn't need to last as long as it does.

I am with DarkPulse on this one: Beginning of Match is fine, but not during mid-game entrance.

I do not want it removed or changed in any way, but am in favor of it only occurring as a starting sequence.
