All day I've ended up on the lame team.
All day my teams have been beaten by teams that racked up twice my team's score.
All day I've been on the team without any skilled pilots, while the other team have at least four.
All day I've been on the team with six squads of one soldier, and a half-wit commander.
All day it's been the same: lose flag after flag until my team has been pinned into one wide-open base.
All day the score has been 154-0 to the other side.
All day I've spawned into artillery shells, arcing bombs, LAV rounds, and sandwich traps.
All day my teammates have been at the other end of the map while the core base gets raped.
All day there have been full choppers piloted by some guy who's just bought the game.
All day I've watched the other team move together, while my team just diffuses.

All day I've wished the damn game would mix the teams after each round, or at least after each map.

Yeah, I know you're right.

And with some good music, and just the right amount of prescription medication, I may just do that. Until the same thing happens tomorrow. Ah, shit. There goes my aneurysm.

Not for me any more . I returned this game along with the rip off Special forces addon "pack" . I love the game but it is way too frustrating with all the shit that goes on - asshole admins , tk'ers blah blah blah .
I should crank up good old tribes 1 . Best On-line FPS ever . LOL now you guys have to suffer all the c4 bug because of complaing , whining assholes . Have fun - if you can .

How long have you been playing the game? I've not had any problem with server admins, and I've only seen a tiny fraction of teamkillers compared to what went on in UT2004. (Man, I hated that game.) My only problem at the moment is the one I started this thread about — always ending up on the team full of players that couldn't find their own ass with both hands. I just got beaten again by a team that scored twice the global points and twice the kills our team got, and we were the side with fixed bases.

What C4 bug are you talking about?

I've found some good servers that either use autobalance or have TK punish turned off.I just add them to my favorites.Ya kinda got to shop around for good servers.Playing on random servers with the best ping just didn't cut it for me anymore.

Autobalance suX! I mean not the autobalance itself ( keep teams balanced is important), but the way it does it. Autobalance should do its work in the beginning of the game and then just lock teams. So many times I was helping my team to win and when the score is about 70-10 I'm forced into the opposite team...That sux. And mostly because of that I'm always trying to be a squadleader or create locked squads. But I want some teamwork. Autobalace is ruining it. Looks like this balance is balancing me only lol.

"Autobalance 1 or I dont go on."

made the mistake of letting a mate choose a server last night and he led us into karkand 13 vs 20something, then our team lost more members and teh other team gained them as the round went on and points got lower, quickest 2 defeats Ive ever suffered and Im choosing the sodding servers from now on!

Wow, I didn't know I could lipread...

I remember having a day like that. It was miserable. See, how I got out of the funk was to be a hard out player. I did everything. I wasn't just walking along, I was walking, walking backwards, diving, crouching, hiding and kicking arse. The rest of my team were still clueless and getting killed and loosing bases, but what they lost I took back, and I killed every enemy I saw before they killed me.

I was Rambo. We still lost, but only by seven tickets, which is a lot better than 220. I got a Silver medal, but the guy who got the gold was constantly in a chopper while the only thing I used was a Vodnik, and then nly for a few seconds. The next round my team started taking things seriously and we steamrolled them, and then had a series of close, but my-team-win rounds. I'd like to think that was my doing, but probably some super-good-guy joined.

I know what you mean but look at it this way . If the temas were locked then what if 12% of your troops were noobs and got kicked for too many TK's . Then your getting your ass kicked anyhow . Besides if you are booted to the lossing team you can rack up a tons of points by picking the class that is needed . I usualy go medic or support - who doesn't need ammo and health\revives in this situation . Also have you ever been on a server without it ? Sucks even more . I was on Karkand and it didn't have auto-Bal . Teams were 23 to like 7 . I asked and begged for people to even the teams the next round after a heavy ass whopping - not one of them joined over .so we just got our asses kicked for another round before I left frustrated .  Sucks much more then getting switched to the other side . You still hold your points too . Who cares about VICTORIES ?
