Although the concept is good, i dont think it would be a good idea for the server to pluck ppl from one team and put it into another. That wouldnt be fair. The server is actually supposed to be provide a BOT to help balance the teams but this is up to the admins to set that up. I personally would just continue playing and take it as it comes. It really doesnt matter unless its an organized match in which it would be useless to have this feature. If the teams are unbalanced, then you can either continue and play to have fun, stop playing or inform everyone to balance teams and hope they adhere to it. Bottomline, I seriously doubt game dev will put in the time but you never know
Yeah well. I just know that I often experience the following scenario:
I play and suddenly I'm swarmed with other players in my own base and the other team has 3 captures advantage. You look an see that you're actually playing 3vs5 or worse. Then the "teams" shouts break out. By the time teams are balanced again one team has 4-5 captures more and the game is just about over. Many ppl seem to be very reluctant to change teams (because they loose their frags probably).
And honestly... Bots aren't much fun to play against (or with). ;-)
i think the Evil|Arena did it well.
iirc you start with an autojoin and you can not join a team which has more players than the other.
is this ok for you? if so: contact Panic @ the Evil-Site.
An automatic warning if one team has two or more players more than the other would be a first start. And being unable to join the larger team would also help. There is a surprising number of players that seem to always join the leading team, even if that team already has >2 more players than the loosing one...
