terrible tdm team balancing

[DiveGummi]

put higher ranks on one team and the lower ranks on the other? wtf?

[Ayylien]

It's hillarious sometimes, but yeah a level 14 with his low health and SMG are no match for even the level 50's.

[PkUnzipper]

also the fact the lvl 50's roll with Lester. And so can conveniently go off radar whenever they want to is particularly maddening.....

Pretty sh*tty. Once I was in a TDM with a bunch of level 100+s and me, vs a team of level 15s and below.

 

25-2.

I haven't played a ton of TDM but almost every time I have the teams have been unbalanced. It's not very fun, imo, for either side. Then when they managed to somehow unf*ck themselves and get even there is always the c*nts that just jump teams to make it uneven again. Why the f*ck is that team select option even in the game.

 

get it together R*. I like TDM as a game type but it's real sh*tty to try and play.

Kind of ruins Team Deathmatch. If you set Team Balancing: Off, all the savvy players join the same team to gang up on 1 or 2 players who don't know how to switch. Even more unbalanced.

 

Often your crew mates get split to the other team, even when another crew is present with the same number of members.

 

One way to balance teams is have a polite, fair-minded host use their microphone to direct a lobby full of respectful, Good Sport players.

 

I have never seen that actually happen, though.

I just wish it wouldn't split me from my friends. That's so stupid.

Was pretty sure all it did was balance team numbers not levels or abilities. So an 8 player DTM get 4 random assigned players on each team - sometimes best 4 vs worst 4 - but that's how random works.

 

Otherwise, with balancing, you can walk into a crew game and if they are being dicks they switch teams and you end up with things like 7-on-1 DTM ... not much fun for anyone !
