    major annoyances

    1)auto-balance- i was on the EU team on a 36 camp-g server and we were doing incredibly well. i was doing well as well ( i think i was in 8th). i knew that AB would switch me, since we were ahead, 270-120 (approx.). so i tried desperately to join a squad, but it wouldnt let me. (none of the squads were locked) i tried making my own squad, and the same thing. is it because i joined the game 1/2way thru the match? anyhow, i was switched to the PAC when the PAC had around 60 tickets left. i ended the round in 1st on my team, but around 9th in the game. (btw, in a 24-hr period, i got 2 silver medals and a bronze medal! i was on FIRE!!!! :yay:)

    2) orbital strikes. i was playing as commander in the round that i got my 2nd silver medal in, and i was commander. i dropped so many orbital strikes on crowded enemy areas. i only registered about 7-8 kills through them. luckily i also had a bunch of kills manually since the entire EU team charged my command post. i got about 7-8 kills before my team saved me.
    but what i want to know is why are these things so worthless? you would think that if one hits right next to the enemy they would take massive damage, if not kill them. not in my case. at the end of the match, i was one point away from getting 1st. i was so mad.

    3) idiot team members- we had a worthless commander- he did nothing, we were losing, and he was fighting. and he was bad at that too. so my squad tried at least 10-15 times to kick him. none were successful. i think it was the 18-19th try, i became commander, and saved the game, according to my squad-mates.
    i ask, why are people so stupid????? we should have kicked him in the first round of voting!

    4) after using the voss for a bit, my new opinion on assualt rifles is
    voss>krylov>slingshot>peashooter>SCAR11

        Does it make you feel any better whenever there is an Orbital Strike raining down on me, it kills me? That is some major annoyance.

          Orbitals are not bad. Unless you happen to be right in them, I do admit it's rather a pain when both commanders orbital exactly the same spot. The server really doesn't like that, or last long if it goes on for too long.

          Bah, don't even bother with kick votes. They'll never work on anything above a 24 (which they still rarely work). People just ignore most of the time I think, I don't feel like convincing myself that 60% of the population is too stupid to press one key. Though it's probably true in most cases.

            Sometimes I wonder why people start a kick vote without explaining what the player did wrong... In that case I don't vote and many people with me.

              I often see kick votes come up with no explanation as to why they have been inititated. 'SomeGuy' has initiated a kick vote against 'SomeOtherGuy' - for what reason? Basecamping, Ramming, Glitching, TKing, Being better than you, what?

                  There are two annoying things, 1) you gat a kick vote right as soon as the round starts. 2) no matter how good you do as a commander, some un grateful moron is bitching up a storm calling you names and just cussing you out, and you win the round any way.

                    AB has nothing to do with the team scores. It is only in relation to the number of players on each team.

                    That would be interesting if you could select a reason for why you are starting a kick vote.

                    That drives me crazy. If we have someone start a kick vote we will try to join their squad to ask why. We usually have admins on both teams when a bunch of us are on. If they won't explain or if they are one of those players that are just starting constant kick votes we'll kick them. It really is annoying.

                          Orbitals are good when it was me dropping down on some roof camping snipers. Yup, got 15 kill streak by dropping orbitals again and again on the same twin sniper team to the degree that they sneaked to EU base in Bavaria trying to kill me. :) Too bad for them, I hid myself good and far away from the base.

                          Though it is annoy when I am the camping sniper being dropped.
