Was out of RO scene for couple months, playing - oh the blasphemy - BF2142. Yes, a game with very small amount of tactics, unrealistic, full of stats whoring etc.
But, hey, A TEAM BALANCE SYSTEM THAT ACTUALLY WORKS!!!!!
NO TEAM STACKING!!!!!!!
Wow, my god have I been translated to some sort of MP team based heaven? So it is possible to fulfill this most basic need of EVERY goddamn MP game - ie balanced teams???? IT IS POSSIBLE!
So now I am back to RO, and am I disappointed or what?
Team stacking, the nemesis of RO, is rampant as ever, the absolutely worst "feature" of this game, that ruined so many rounds of RO, is back (in fact it never left). Apparently, while I was away no one did anything on the technical side to make servers balanced, and - of course - no one changed the player's mindset (if anything, there are more smacktards in RO now than hen I left) to make people keep teams balanced by themselves (yeah, fat chance).
I am coming after playing 2 rounds on Rakowice, one of my favorite maps (when teams are balanced of course).
In terms of gameplay this map is as unbalanced as it gets, with Soviets having to do everything short of launching Sputnik into orbit. As most players know, it gets real fun <sarcasm> when teams are 16 to 10 in German favor </sarcasm>
I mean what's the fuqen point!!!!!??? Lets just make Germans win automatically and be done with it.
Oh well, back to BF - not very smart, certainly not realistic, but at least I don't have to worry about Nazi fanbois outnumbering my team almost 2:1 on every goddamn map....
