Even when teams are even, as soon as i join the game, it says "You have been switched to the other team by server" even with both teams are even! Why is this? It did it to me 10 times in a row!

I know that problem...And I hate being moved to the losers like 10 tickets before the end...
That's why I mostly move around being a Squadleader. Aside the Commanders, they are safe from being "autobalanced"...

I've just done quick servey of 100 people, asking the question, "Is Pierce always switched to the losing team by the server, or is it an admin decision?"

Here are the results:

09 People said "is this work related?"
11 people said "haven't you got a report to write"
12 People said "go away i'm busy"
12 people turned out to be potted plants with no opinion
13 people said "who the F%*K is Pierce"
43 people said "who cares"

Thank you for your time.

I hate it when the enemy controls all but one flagpoint. And they come with APCs and Tanks and rape everyone who spawns there.

I always get switched to the loosing team and almost all the time I join a server I end up on the team with ~10 tickets against the enemies ~198 etc... except on my fav server, 24/7 Ghost town 16 player map the ending amount of tickets on that server are usually 1-0 to 6-0 for the winning team often it's near the end 10-40 and the team with 10 wins it's intense action all the time

Join squads and your loess likely to be switched.
You have to learn the rules of the game and then you have to play better than anyone else.

never any good squads in the servers I have good ping on... just one-man sniper squads -.-'
(I think the ping showing system is messed up... I lag like hell on the servers that show that I have low ping, but once I joined my friend on a server, it showed 252 in ping but it ran better then I have ever experienced :S)

welcome 2 autobalance, population: you

Best way to avoid autobalance is to join a squad. Lone wolves get moved first.
The only exception to this is an admin decision, which just sucks.

I've changed the message "you were moved to the other team" to "you were moved to the losing team. Have fun, bitch!" in my localization files. It's basically the same.

My personal favourite was right at the start of the game, I'd just crippled the opposing team by destroying some commander assets and capturing the PLA airfield on Dragon valley(single handedly I might add). Next death I was instantly autobalanced to their team. Lots of swearing followed.

I used to hate the auto switching, but with the new 1.3 patch and so many guys crashing out i have been auto switched to the winning team more than once hey hey. One time they had perhaps 40 tickets and one cap on wake and i had been auto switched, frigging sweet i knew where all the snipers were hiding, felt a bit like judas but alls fair in love and war

I don't know why it happens when you log in other than one team having more people than the other.  Typically, if one team has more people, it will win.

However, mid-way through a round, people will leave the losing team.  More so when the result is inevitable, as some people care about their stats and don't want to register a loss.  Of course, if one team is getting pwned, they will not be able to score well and again, this will encourage people to leave.

Of course, if you think the other team has less people, the best way of not getting switched is DON'T DIE!  Dead people get switched, not live ones.

I noticed that I never get switched to the winning team. Some servers never switch sides and if you don't have a reserved slot on the winning team (USMC on Karkand) you can lose several rounds in a row. But I enjoy the map so I just play.
