Subject: spawn protection in firefight?

if knowledge is power and power corrupts, isn't knowledge therefore dangerous?
Black Tower

alright, in firefight, we all know by now that we play as ODSTs (duh), and the fifth wave in a round has a few chieftans charge at you.
my question: what if they make it to your spawn? and you wasted all your heavy weapons and nades and the like.
they go invincible, and hammer-time your whole squad. now then, all of you are dead, enough lives to respawn.
problem: there's like 3 angry monkies weilding hammers camping your spawn.
does this equal a near impossible pickle to get out of? or will we have spawn protection.
i do understand it'll probaly spawn you away from them, but what if all other spawn areas are covered as well, by jackals, grunts, normal brutes?
is it just simply game over?
is the only answer "don't suck?"


*note: spawn protection didn't have any results in the search bar, so i'm guessing this thread is kosher.

don't suck lawlz just kidding. Good point though. Maybe there is more than one spawn point....

Good question. Spawn deaths are my most hated thing in H3 [aside from teamkillers.] I'm really hoping that they can find a way to help fix that.

i hope so.
i did touch on that, but then, what if it's covered in enemies? as in all of them?
then do you drop pod in? kill enemies in the spawn?

well in every firefight map so far there are two spawn areas

so i guess bungie expects the ai to be dumb enough not to camp both spawns
