Description

When you join a server, your character appears in the world before you can even control him. He/she is just standing there vulnerable for a few second before you finally join.

A five second protection should help you refocus what is going on around you and also, prevent from being killed before you can even defend yourself.

Steps To Reproduce

I tested this with my friend.
When I was already on the server and he was connecting a meter from me,
I saw his character before his screen showed anything but the connecting message.
It took few good seconds before he could play.

Additional Information

This is important to consider. And I am not the only one.

I agree. In the world of FPS we call it a spawn shield. This game totally needs one.
