Mr.Layer Posted October 23, 2009 Share Posted October 23, 2009 As the title says, have Arena to randomly assign players. It's much more fun that way and prevents team stacking. Also allow the server to equal out the teams to keep the gameplay fun and interesting.Arena's used to be fun before, an update unlocked the new cvars which have been set on Mr.Green's Arena, but I think it would be much better if those cvars were set to pre-update settings.The inspiration for this post was from playing 2 games on the arena server, both games being on the team with 0% wins.

Iulian Posted October 23, 2009 Share Posted October 23, 2009 Do you mean by add a command to scramble the teams ? No.Because when you start to play you make some strategy how you go where you go what you go and so on , and by simple scrambling the teams ruins the sake of it. Quote Link to comment
Kniight Posted October 23, 2009 Share Posted October 23, 2009 Well that's obviously not what he means if you've just read what he's written. Quote Link to comment
Danni Posted October 23, 2009 Share Posted October 23, 2009 I dont like the idea, people should be able to join the team of his/her choice Quote Link to comment
Iulian Posted October 23, 2009 Share Posted October 23, 2009 Uhm ,Disable team picking on arena ? The only way is to add "scramble the teams" plugin which sucks Quote Link to comment
Botervloot Posted October 23, 2009 Share Posted October 23, 2009 I vote for this. It's "Arena", not Team Deathmatch. And it's confusing for the players, and this is also the thing that makes the team unbalanced. Quote Link to comment
Mr.Layer Posted October 23, 2009 Author Share Posted October 23, 2009 I dont like the idea, people should be able to join the team of his/her choiceWell on another server I played on, they implemented this and it ended up always being clan-stacks... Not exactly 'fun' for regular pubbers. Quote Link to comment
Axon Posted October 23, 2009 Share Posted October 23, 2009 I vote for this too. But the down side is that, if team select is disabled, people have to sit out. And that's annoying imo. Quote Link to comment
Clavus Posted October 23, 2009 Share Posted October 23, 2009 I dont like the idea, people should be able to join the team of his/her choiceWell on another server I played on, they implemented this and it ended up always being clan-stacks... Not exactly 'fun' for regular pubbers.Still. If you ain't winning you need to revise your strategy together. It's called "Team" Fortress after all. Quote Link to comment
Hundred2 Posted October 23, 2009 Share Posted October 23, 2009 (edited) Try to make a strategy when all people on your team just want KILLS, KILLS and MORE KILLSYou cant "Team" if only you is prepared to work as a team. Well. this is why i dont play arena. other gamemodes are fine tho Edited October 23, 2009 by Hundred2 Quote Link to comment
Axon Posted October 23, 2009 Share Posted October 23, 2009 I only play Arena when the CP server is too full or empty. Arena is fun, but when it's stacked, it's not.There was an Arena match with me and MysteryImp and some guys on one team, with 3 Insane on the other team.That was balanced. That was ultra fun.

Not exactly 'fun' for regular pubbers.Still. If you ain't winning you need to revise your strategy together. It's called "Team" Fortress after all.One team: A group of friends experienced in TF2 and 1-2 pubbers.Other team: 3-4 players new to the game, another 2 players killwhoring, then 1-2 players wanting to work as a team.My point is, the teams should be an even mix of experienced and new players, and the best way at doing that is to have it randomly assign, and switch over players if need be.

Rena Posted November 1, 2009 Share Posted November 1, 2009 (edited) It's kinda annoying if you can't play with your friends imo :\I would say no. Edited November 1, 2009 by Rena Quote Link to comment
Akimbo Posted November 4, 2009 Share Posted November 4, 2009 Voted no! I hate random teams, team scrambling and auto "balance". They're the bane of all online gaming. Quote Link to comment
Mr. Darkness Posted November 4, 2009 Share Posted November 4, 2009 (edited) I vote no.You want to play with your old team that has its own plan and friends and etc. I think that would be great if you will have your place in your team. Making it auto-balance some one will give bad results. But there is a tip. If Auto-balance will be removed, someone of another team will join the strongest so it will be very annoying for "noobest" team....Sry for my English btw.
