Make a timer for 1h or something like that to prevent wtj all games and actually have teambalance working better.
It sucks to see alot of people teamswitching when the game turns hard or towards the end to get vicktory bonus. At the moment it is a joke really.
if you leave a game, it should be punished harder. so when you do leave the game it left behind a bitter taste of deserting!
Finally a suggestion that makes sense to implement! Don’t even know why there was team switching in Bf4..
Team switching should be possible for 2 reasons:
-balance the same amount of people in both teams
-add ability to switch to another team if you have your friends there > This is non-logical for balance but this feature should be for playing with friends. It’s very annoying to be in both teams if you have a friend in another team
There must not be any 1h ban\delay for switching to another team
If you play with your friends arent you in the same squad already?
No sometimes it places you on the other team even if you are in a squad when you join. I also think they should leave team switching in until they find a way to have everyone play objectives. The way it is now I don’t want to get stuck on teams that don’t do anything. When you get stuck on a team that is loosing by 750 tickets in a 800 ticket server you don’t want to stick around on that team. I have been stuck on both sides of the coin and its not fun. If I have a chance to leave or switch to a team that is playing objectives like they are supposed to I will.
I quit BF4 because of the team balancer switching me every single game. It broke it for me as I play rush which as I’m sure you all know is meant to be played over two games attack then defend. Only getting to attack for 10, 20, 30 games in a row has totally ruined where I find my fun in the game. I hope they throw this joke of a balancer in the bin or at the very least make it so it re balances every second game as the map switches.
Lets take out the teambalacer part. What would you guys think about this then?
maybe stop worrying about your stats?
If you join off your friend, the server will do it’s best to get you on your friend’s team (even in his squad)… You don’t need a switch sides function to do that.
Team balancer does your first suggestion but we all know how broken that is..
Worrying about stats and the fact people wtj so hard it almost make the game unplayable are 2 differend things. Nice provo tho
Theres nothing wrong with playing against friends.
I’d prefer them to remove the ‘balancer’. It doesnt work, is poorly thought out, and can be easily abused.
There is no need for a team switch option. It just gives the rage quitters an easy out.
i like the team switch i never get squaded with my mates always other team. i only play with my mates.
team balancer sucks.
Well I believe there was talk and word that this BF game will have it so when you group with friends to make a squad, you won’t be pushed to the other team just to fill up the roster. We’ll see how that goes though.
In BF4(PS4) a lot of the time trying to join a squad with a group of your friends doesn’t work, so if there were no team switching I’d never be able to play with my friends. Unless apon joining a game we are placed on the same side!
1 teamswitch isnt enough to get in same team? How many times do you guys switch sides in one game?
Until they fix the game where people have to play objectives they should leave it in. The only times I quite or switch sides is when my team is doing nothing the whole game. I mean there should be no reason a team is loosing by 750 tickets in a 800 ticket server. I am not going to get stuck on a team like that. Conquest is not TDM and should not be played like it is. Until they fix this issue they should leave that in. I would be find taking it out if they had a way to make sure people played the objectives and not just running around playing tdm every round.
Banning team-switch completely would be stupid since there are some situations where it does make sense.
What should be done is, limiting it to just once per game, and only within a fixed time period after game start (depending on game mode and ticket count).
@Truffleshuffle03 - Its not the games fault that some people dont care about the win/pto/team.
Cant believe you are freely admitting to teamswitching ‘because your team is bad’. Its people like you that cause the massive issues with team balancer.
Why be so selfish? If i’m on a bad team so be it. It happens. I’d rather not ruin the experience for others. But maybe thats just me.
This. Being on a bad team sucks but I look at it as a challenge. If I come out having played well then I’m happy.
