DarKMyst Posted March 20, 2016 Share Posted March 20, 2016 Hi guys, with the danger being annoying, have been wondering about this topic. My experience with a clan and members/players is ................players prefer allies and why? I think because there are more maps where allies attacks then maps where axis attacks. For some reason players like the attacking maps better then defending.!? Please correct me when i am wrong,my experience is from a long time ago and not from a clan with hundreds of members and loads of servers. Maybe you guys tackled this already a long time ago and didn`t see any improvement. I mean mixing the maps so there would be a nice mix attacking/defending. I don`t find it a problem myself,to attack or defend,but it seems to be for others and they prefer attacking and go ( mostly ) to allies. Again, just an opinion from an old guy, with a braincell with an own will. regards DarKMyst ( aka as Marius ) 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SunSet Posted March 20, 2016 Share Posted March 20, 2016 For me it doesn't matter if I am attacking or defending, I just check which team needs help and join them. But it's true that some players have their own preferences to be better attackers than defenders. Moreover there are a lot of players who choose side depends on map, cause they have their best places or strategy on specific maps like mortar, artillery, etc. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ann!b@l Posted March 20, 2016 Share Posted March 20, 2016 (edited) While doing new rotation, we\I always try to make a balanced list of maps allowing both sides to be attacker.. The thing is that the liked maps with axis attacking seems to be much more difficult to find than those for allies. The only advise I would suggest would be than, while suggesting maps, to make 2 separated lists of maps allowing both sides to be the attacker.

Koenios Posted March 20, 2016 Share Posted March 20, 2016 The somewhat better players just pick the side which is easiest to rate on (which is also based on how the teams are at that point), and since they are the best players, the teams naturally become quite stacked. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The other solution would be to apply for admining\membership and help on server(s) to avoid that such situations happen.

Sisje Posted March 20, 2016 Share Posted March 20, 2016 (edited) Maybe part of the problem is that with the voting system people tend to chose the most popular maps where allies attackI prefer to play axis because of the mp40 (however that's not really an issue on silent mod) but I'll play on whichever team, if I decide to play xD Edited March 20, 2016 by Sis <3 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dingus Posted March 20, 2016 Share Posted March 20, 2016 Shouldn't really matter as long as a team plays like a team. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Platinum VIP -=HipKat=- Posted March 20, 2016 Platinum VIP Share Posted March 20, 2016 Weird thing, on JM, I prefer being Axis. on ET Pro I prefer being Allies... makes no sense 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SiD Posted March 20, 2016 Share Posted March 20, 2016 There's also the patriotism thing. In my experience, any game that has 'Muricans vs Terrorists, people are going to flock to the 'good guys' more often than the bad guys. Attacking teams or not. Some people just flat out refuse to play any sort of terrorist or nazi, despite it being just a game. Mental block for some people. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Raskin Posted March 20, 2016 Share Posted March 20, 2016 Life is not fair.. same in all activities..try to enjoy yourself..why so serious brah..evil laugh is OK in a game sometimes } I play axis mostly because lack of team play on attacking team can be frustrating..why ET pro allied choice ..due to play as a team more yes?maybe.. Hipkat ..at least per my experience..been years tho ..just my take... rather play a close match than a own.. Have fun! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Flible Posted March 21, 2016 Share Posted March 21, 2016 Hi, DarkMyst! Excellent feedback. It's important that you share your thoughts on matters such as these, so the clan gets an idea of how the clients like their servers! I can't speak for others - But I personally prefer an attacking team unless it's a map usually strongly dominated by the defending team (such as goldrush). Obviously I will switch when there seems to be a team discrepancy. If I end up in a position I don't like, I sometimes ask an enemy player with a similar KR and/or skill level to switch with me. Generally, this always keeps me satisfied without interfering with the level of balance in the teams. I hope I gave you an answer and inspired some readers to re-evaluate their position on teams! Regards, flible 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RedAngel Posted March 21, 2016 Share Posted March 21, 2016 I prefer to defend, unless I can mortar then I don't mind either but as I am easy prey hiding is always a good option 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
