Forcably Swapped Sides 

So how annoying is this...

You're playing BF2. Your team is completely trashing the opposition...as the opposition's score pours towards zero the server decides it's going to make you swap sides. Suddenly you're on the side of the people who are GETTING the thrashing...and they lose the round.

Question is...Does the server count that round as a win or loss for you? If it's a loss then that's absolute RUBBISH

Re: Forcably Swapped Sides 

I know exactly what you mean...I had the same shit happen to me lastnight. I played for prob 20 minutes on the USMC side and was helping to get this one particular flag back....we fought like hell for that flag then .....doink I was on the other team and now I had to go take back the flag that I had worked so hard to help and get. I was pissed.

Re: Forcably Swapped Sides 

I know that it is annoying, and try getting a teamkill for blasting someone right before it moves you . I understand why though if everyone gets bored and leaves the team getting owned, you have no one to play against .

Re: Forcably Swapped Sides 

what ticks me off is when the server decides to switch your teams, so you drive out of the base, but the lag forces you to switch teams while you are alive, so then you have to turn around and attack the base you just drove out of .... WTF

Or....be like me and be blissfully unaware that I changed teams and end up totally confused when the wrong color uniforms start attacking me later.

Re: Forcably Swapped Sides 

This is because of the Autobalance on the server. If it is on, then if the server is unbalanced, it automatically kicks some random player over to the other side!

I know it Licks balls! especially if your trying to play on the same team with some your friends, such as in a LAN Party.


I guess the best word to describe this as...FUBAR!!!!

Re: Forcably Swapped Sides 

please dont use any geeky, dated, over-used acronyms like "FUBAR" again. They have no place here and especially not in this context.
