Can you imagine how all the users with configurations that do not allow for fast map loading time feel?
They almost never get any of the special roles, due to the ability of people with fast PC's(such as those with SSD's) to load the map first and always take the class they want to pick.
I really dont care how they feel. I was one of those people up untill a few months ago. Infact I was running a rig I built in 2001 and built my current rig just so I could play RO2. I wanted to build a fast rig so I did. I had enough of sh*tty FPS and long load times. I busted my butt to afford to build my rig...I worked overtime, saved my cash, etc.
Never once did I complain about how slow my old rig was or how unfair it was when other people took the tanks I wanted to drive in darkest hour just because they had better hardware than me and we able to load the map fastest.
Instead of crying about it and saying "OMGZ THE SSD PPL ALWAYS GET SNIPER SPOT, NOT FAIR!!1! THERE NEEDS TO BE A BALANCE OR SOMEWAY MAKING IT FAIR" I busted my butt, was smart with my money and became one of the SSD people.
If you want to play a certain spot...shell out the cash to be able to do so. Dont play the "its not fair" card just because youre poor, lazy, stupid with your money or youd rather spend your money on cheezy poofs and cyber fap material rather than a SSD.
All those people that disliked my post are obvious people that have slow rigs.
Reguarding what I said on autobalance. I think still think its crap. If a few people decide to leave on the enemy team, some unlucky guys or even you will get booted to the other team. Now if youre one of those people that only likes to play on one side, you arent going to be very motivated playing for the other team. I know im not. I usually end up leaving the server if I cant get back to my old side by spamming the team select button.
Random autobalancing people that are already playing is stupid and it shouldnt even be there. Nothing is more frustrating that chosing a class and a specific weapon because you WANT to gain class & weapon XP...but then you get RANDOMLY autobalanced and get stuck playing with some stupid weapon & class you dont want to play with. dumb crap like that makes me and im sure a hell of alot of others faceplam.
Rather than autobalancing the existing people, only allow new players to the server to join the team that needs the players...like it is already. If those new players dont want to play on that team, theyll leave...then others will come in and fill those slots. What im saying is remove autobalance for exisiting players and keep the limit on what team you can join when joining a server. Both problems solved without pissing anybody off.
