I'll tell you one thing I do to help get wins (did this to help get the WCR before the requirements changed), because the percent of servers that you can "team switch" on is really low and you probably won't get a good map or server if you only look for ones that allow switching (10%?):  What I do is, before I click "join server", I'll look at the teams to see which one "looks" like they are winning (since you can't be sure since you can't see the tickets).  Then I'll join when it looks like I'll be put on that team or not based on whether there's an odd/even number of players on the server already.  Know what I mean? Hard to explain in email.  For example, if the British look to be winning on Ghosttown, I'll wait until there is an even number of people then I'll click on "Join server".  If the Russians look to be winning, then I'll wait until there's an odd number to join.

It doesn't always work but it works a lot of the time.  Now that I've had my WCR for awhile, I don't do it to get a win perse`, as much as I do it to help me score more points to rank up quicker (since I don't play but 45 min/day) and not get spawn raped a ton............plus, if I play with my clan mates, I have 90% confidence that we're going to win all of the games we play since we'll play as a team, can use VOIP, and have good strategy for certain maps.

lol, I always stick with my team.

Thats why I loose alot.

Check out my Win/Loss ratio in the stats link. It's just sickening!
Not bad stats at all for as long as you've played. Don't worry about the win/loss, a lot of the time the morons of the world will find you and join your team no matter what you do and comence to hand the other team the win. I've been on teams that had a 100 point plus lead, a couple of key players left and next thing you know the spastic butt pirates join the team... loss. But your personal stats are better than a lot of new players so don't feel bad. Just try to help your team more and be a team player and you might get a few more wins to go with your kdr and spm.

Easy way: join a clan. Usually a semi decent clan-squad can win the vast majority of the matches (on public servers).

Hard way: try to be a primary contributor for your team. As said above, cap strategic flags (for example both chopper spawns in Ghost Town, or Insurgents' tank spawn in Warlord, or a back flag in Mass Destruction, etc.).

I usually don't switch team.
If the match is badly imbalanced when I connect, I try to join the winning team or leave.
If the match is balanced I stick with my team and start working for the victory.

I don't think a single player can ensure the victory for his team on 64-slots servers (with a few exceptions maybe, like a good PLA aviator in wake or a good MEC chopper pilot in Sharqi), but it's possible on 32/40-slots servers.

1.  Switching teams near the end of a round will not get you a win
Hmmm, and you know this for a fact how exactly?

This is one of the many myths in this game, perpetuated by people who can't be bothered to spend the time to check for themselves. Anyone interested in what DOES count as a win in BF2, almost all you need to know is in this thread:

In case you're in any doubts I'm referring to my post, not Nyte's.
