pontos de spawn

Explanation:
Como gamer há muito tempo, posso dizer que nós usamos o termo "spawn" em inglês mesmo. O lugar de spawn é onde nós surgimos após perder uma vida.

Exemplo (Retirado da Wikipedia):
"Dominar as bandeiras é importante por dois fatores: o fato de elas serem um spawn para os jogadores mortos e pelos pontos do oponente diminuírem caso o seu time detenha mais da metade delas."

UPDATE:
"Pontos", nesse caso, gera uma ambigüidade, então o ideal seria usar "os lugares de spawn" ou algum sinônimo.

São aqueles figurantes do jogo que REAPARECEM após terem sido mortos.

Então, você poderia usar: "pontos pelo ressurgimento de figurantes do jogo".
