do you guys think they will ever do anything to counter the stacked teams?

When I used to play halo 2 online via live, you were always put into a game that had players of equal skill. It had a complex point system and they thought of everything so people getting beat wouldn't quit. Well on bf3 most of the time i end up on either a good or bad stacked team. it not fun either way. I bet i end up playing a truely close and fun round 1 out of 20 games. sure sure i keep coming back but now its because i spent this money on this gaming system and game. dont get me wrong i still enjoy it but....

This isnt news to anyone around here but i think its killing the game, i feel like its only going to get worse from here on out unless they find a way to balance this out somehow. it sucks to be on the winning team and bust your hump getting all these kills and you get team switched due to all the rage quiters on the other team...i could go on and on but we all know how this goes.

It would be nice to hear that they have a plan or at least a rumor of a plan to counter this somehow. maybe they deduct 500 points for quitting regardless of circumstance, and they force you into squads and spread the squads around to balance the teams...just something needs to be done imo.

Some servers already have a team scramble feature after every round that arranges teams off of score or spm and k/d. It should just be mandatory for all ranked public servers.

The only thing that sucks about these servers though is when you're trying to play on the same team with a few of your friends. We usually have to leave these servers due to the auto-balance.

while i factor that into the potential problem, i sincerely wonder how many people play this game as it was intended: as a cordinated, tactical effort. I have real friends that play all the time but its such a pain in the butt to get everyone to use any tactical menurvering and i think i know why: its too much work.

while it is very fun to play this way from time to time, i would guess i play less then one % of the time the way we should play . i hop out my tank to fix and someone takes it???? what kind of team work is this. so, if this squad thing is the reason we don't have matches based on rank because it might interfere with squad play, i say who does this anyways? heck most of the time no one including the squad leader even caps the stuff he commands and half of the players font even join squads.

maybe they should have 2 main yet different types of servers. maybe they could have some thing like:

game type 1: ranked based match making- you join these servers and you are randomly put on a squad on a team based on your rank.

game type 2: clan/squad based matches: meant for serious squads or players who would like to play as a team with tactics, using mics, and the "q" button for quick commands. these servers could simply be listed as "tactical team play" or something like that.

etc etc etc....

maybe everyone learns to play in game type 1, with the idea that people will eventually want to move into more the more serious game type while playing the game as it was intended. maybe you just want to run around and shoot people tonight, then you join game type 1, but you will be put in games where your rank determines the opponents you will play against. tomorrow night your clan has a scheduled night with another clan.

imagine playing a game where you actually valued your life and you had to play as a team and or squad to simply stay alive, and i dont mean you are forced to do this, but this was the only way to avoid being shot.

this game has so much potential that almost no one seems to care about.
