I'm pretty certain the respawn timer has always been 20 seconds. Initial spawn timer is 30 seconds for the Attacking side, I believe, which gives the Defenders time enough to set up a defense.
In matches larger than 64-players where the Squad, Platoon, and OIC are allowed to call in support, one can Blockade the enemy's reinforcements, increasing the respawn timer to 30 seconds. You'll notice the respawn timer has a background with X's (steel/Czech Hedgehogs). I'm going off of me...
