[Suggestion] Autobalance in pub servers


(Cappe) #1

DB really needs autobalance in pub servers too many time do I end up with 4v6 or 4v7 with nobody wanting to switch teams and vote for shuffle is completely useless cause the other will obviously always vote no.
So what DB needs is autobalance that automatically shuffles the teams (in pub) the moment one team has 2 or more players more than the other team.

In TF2 autobalance is annoying AF, if they do add it atleast they should make it so that you haven’t carried the whole team to the end then you die BUT WAIT! you are now in the other team…

Playing 4v6 or 4v7 spawnkilling fest is still far more annoying than getting teamswapped.

Either autobalance needs to be put in or some form of incentive for people to want to switch teams be it a positive or negative incentive.
Or they could add (like in ET) autobalance that resets the match, this could work as a negative incentive to make people switch teams for example if nobody from the stacked team switches match resets and all xp is lost.

I was in a game today with some of my friends and we were dominating as you expect because we were all communicating and supporting eachother and everyone, including my other team mates voted to shuffle the teams with 3 minutes left of the second half and put me on the losing team. I was pissed and so was my friends, being put on the losing team because we were playing the objective is just absurd.

Think about it. What’s worse. Getting absolutely rolled, or losing a pub match?

Noone cares if they lose a pub match, they’ll move on and play another within 5 minutes. But if you get rolled, then you get mad and possibly lose new players that think the game is unbalanced.

Autobalance is a great idea and I don’t know why it already isn’t in the game.

I was stomping, people voted for team balance, vote passed, got switched, lost my win of the day because of it.

If they do plan on including autobalance, make it so I don’t lose my win of the day.

They probably should just enable automatic Team Shuffle during warm-up and also when someone joins.

Wrong, i do. I don’t have much time to play and i really hate not being able to complete the win daily bonus because i almost always being put in the losing team, if i was to being autobalanced to a losing team the one time i get lucky i would be really mad.
