I appear offline and players still have the ability to spawn in my game to stream snipe me?

Appearing offline is just that, it doesn't prevent matchmaking.

Play in private matches is the only way to prevent that

Offline mode wont keep me from playing multi-player games?

Privacy Settings "Appear Offline". You won't be really Offline but you will appear Offline to anyone who is not on your Friends List (or everyone if you choose). This disables all abilities for anyone else to Join either Party's
or Games that you have from your Recent Player History.

I like piazza. Liberation pisses me off. Spawn... sniped.... spawn in front of guy that just sniped me.... sniped. spawn behind guy that just sniped me. start to shoot. hit detection. sniper turns around. says "wtf?" , lights a cigarette,
rakes some leaves.... still getting hit detections on him.... he burns leaf pile.... his buddy snipes me from the side. Lather, rinse, repeat.

I'm just saying that some may only consider it spawn camping if the attackers are in the spawn. I've seen my team spawn trap a team (as you described it) but had the ability to still kill players who had spawned just then or a
few short seconds ago, but from a distance.

I think the game itself is just fine...no nerfs, no buffs...it's fine....the problem is the players....why the heck are 60% to 70% or more sniping?....good grief.....spawn die...spawn die....spawn die ...always a sniper ..almost always in the spawn....and
I'll bet most of those sniping are just doing it to counter the other snipers....I found myself doing it, get killed 8 times in a row before taking 3 steps...I switch to sniper too and suppress theirs .....meanwhile 8 out of 24 players are actually trying
to play Battlefield ....but this is players not the game.....sure wish those fluffers would go play TDM or something because they suck on either team
