Clan servers - Put auto balance on!

[Wraith_3]

I'm getting tired of playing on servers where the idiots playing can't or won't balance the teams. This happened a bunch of times the other night and again tonight. I was playing on The Lost Squad clan's server and it ended and started with 17 vs. 30. Finally some people switched teams, but it was still then 21 vs. 29. Are you 10 years old people? Even the teams!

Another reason DICE screwed up with this point system, people don't care about anything except points.

Yes, that is true, but nothing is worse than having a crazy good score, or doing something really good specific to one team, and maybe you die.... and you get SWITCHED TEAMS!

In order to attempt to get back, you get -2 every time you try... even if you fail and it switches you back.

And you can only try to switch 1 time per death, and if you use it, you need to spawn, and then switch.

You can see how you are able to get a ****load of negative points just trying to stay on your team...


Yeah I hate autobalance.

Re: Clan servers - Put auto balance on!

Sounds like they may have been using the games in built AB which sucks and can end up with the teams being uneven like that.

Remember just because you see on some servers like ours the setting Autobalance 0 doesn't mean they aren't running AB. 9/10 times they are using BF2CC's smart balance which is much better at keeping the teams even. It also stops us from getting teamswitched and anyone else who donates to the server, we put their tags or nick into the smart balance system and they never get teamswitched.

You need to remember how the AB system works too. The standard AB when a player loads in they usually always end up on USMC so there is how the teams get lop sided. Then a player can only get switched when they die, it won't switch anyone whilst alive.
