[Menu] Auto Deploy: but for faction

could you have to so that you join when the teams are even/when the team you want to join has fewer players than the other, though?

Possibly, but it's not a priority right now.

Thus why I can't bring myself to play insurgency anymore... all the people I don't really enjoy playing with team switch over to coalition, grab every kit they can get their hands on (AA kit? Really people?!), and then go out and get shot up by the people who have been waiting for 5 minutes to trigger awesome ambushes.

I could play insurgents, but playing defense all the time is boring.

I think the speech degenerating is: there are people who like insurrectional, there are people who do not like.

But there are also people who, entering a server, would like to play with members of his clan; and there's also people who prefer to stay with one faction rather than another; there are servers where sometimes not admin you want to / can change the faction; and there are people also who would prefer to play with one faction rather than another...etc.


this suggestion solves these problems, and I think that does not create any kind of harm or disadvantage. Ultimately, with the auto-balance ON, do not create any kind of interference.

too many nobs play only as blufor, thus the idea would not work in the public domain.

If you wish to play with ur clan, wait for a spot to switch, or get an admin to !switch (the second option is the best)

Or better yet, get on a server with smart balance with ur tag included and you can swap as long as you don't mess the teams too bad (no clannies will be switched to balance...thats the way the cookie crumbles)

Yea, I thought so too. But if it's only programmed to let you in after the teams even out, then expect alot of nubs to sit waiting

Though, as Ancientman's said, it's by no means a priority.

Thank god it's not possible, because if it was, Insurgent map or not, everyone would want to deploy to US/UK/RF all the time, cmon this mod wasn't born yesterday.

Yes, I argee with that. Though what is possible and would work would be waiting for the teams to be even, as I said. Which for people who don't care which side they're on because they're here to play and not just be 1337 coalition can get on easier, while those waiting for the right moment would be waiting for a while...

Then again, that wouldn't necessarily give anyone else a chance to play as coalition, and it would make the insurgent side a whole lot easier with the bigger coalition population being completely nub
