Jaymod 2 always stacked to the extreme

[laggermcjagger]

I just left a game

Allies 60
Axis 20

It's usually the Axis team too, the team that's supposed to be on defense. Allies usually end up playing defense, camping and going on long killing sprees with ridiculously stacked teams. But, some times it's Allies that gets the short end of the stick. It's always some one though...There hasn't ever been a shuffle in all of the time I've ever played there. Even when teams are even, and even with anti rush in place, there's usually  a team that dominates and when you look at the scores there's no mystery as to why.

There is never a shuffle, even when teams are terrible... I also see already stacked and uneven teams go without change, people just keep playing... They cheer about their killing sprees, when it's 7 vs 3...and they have better players. ( It's just not really sporting...)

I know that some times more experienced, better players are on a team, that can't be helped, everyone needs to practice, work on their configs, etc... but, far too often the stacking is just too extreme and it can go for map upon map...no shuffling and no improvement. No one wants to switch teams, shuffle, or work to make it fair. I'm not talking a slight advantage, there's usually a team that is insanely stacked against .

Anyone can "/scores" while playing...and see how terrible teams usually are on Jaymod 2. 

On occasion teams are fair, but it's rare.  No shuffle by XP, no shuffle by admin, nothing ever occurs to correct it...We can't even vote to shuffle teams by XP when an admin isn't there and people are stacking teams...Then, there's bots on teams...bots that don't let players join a team. 

Some one may want to join an already stacked against team, but they can't because there's 3 bots in their place. Of course it's good to have bots when the teams are uneven, but most the time it only hurts already stacked teams.

I often play on Jaymod2 myself and can say I have never had issues like what you have stated. Obviously teams do get uneven occasionally but they sort themselves out in no time. If this does happen frequently, we apologize for that. We understand uneven teams can really spoil the fun of playing ET which is why evening teams is one of the more important roles for our admins to do. Perhaps we can request more admins to play there. I do always see admins like leatherface there etc. But I agree some more admin presence there should do the trick. Perhaps you could also help us out mate by applying. If you are interested in taking care of the teams and maintaining a fun environment, you could make a great impact on the server(s). Give it a thought. You can PM for more details.

Also, it would help if you take screenshots of the teams next time it happens so we can see exactly what you mean. It helps us identify repeat offenders too so we can deal with them appropriately or give them a casual chat in hopes to make them realize the condition of the teams.

 

Thanks for,informing us of this too! ill try and come by when I can!

It's a great server, to any one who is looking for a great place to play ET, I'd recommend it. I've just been seeing uneven teams lately.  I'll take screenshots next time. I'm currently seeking employment, so I'm on often. I have a lot of down time between interviews and job applications. I'm on enough to see some good games, and bad ones. 

Thanks for being understanding.I'd love to help out, as I do enjoy the server a lot. I'll take screenshots, next time I see crazy teams and I'll share them for review with an admin. 

Don't get me wrong, I enjoy a good uphill battle, I enjoy close games. I love a good challenge.But lately I've been seeing allies move through defense like a knife through butter. So fast, it's like nothing is there to hold them back and it's over before it even began. There's many games where I can call them before they even begin, unless more players join. I'm not always right of course. I think everyone deserves a chance, but some times you just know which team is going to win.  I LOVE a good fight, I really do. I rather have a difficult defense than too strong of an offense on any day. That's not to say an impossible defense, but I think it's good to have a challenge, maybe even a nearly impossible defense. But, if it's hopeless, then it's just not fun. 

I hope I didn't give you the wrong impression. I really appreciate the server. I've had some very close, terrific games at the server. Some times you just have bad luck with teams, some times you just get out classed I guess. It's hard to get the perfect balance of teams, to capture lightning in the bottle, to get the perfect storm. So many times you play ET, and the map ends with only one second to spare! It's one of the most fun experiences a gamer could ever have, on the edge of your seat, palms are sweating...You know what I'm talking about, 2 minutes to spare and the truck is past the first barrier, and there's a huge fire fight... (That sort of thing, of course not every game can be that intense.) 

I guess, I just have to admit that some times we're going to lose and it's not going to be close, and we're going to lose badly. I guess something can't always be done to help that. I never used to look at scores. I only do it now when we're loosing so badly, or winning too easily. I quit today because my team was too powerful and I couldn't join the other team. 

Thank you, I'll consider becoming more involved over time. I will take screenshots next time I see it.

i have seen this also .

 

but for most part jay2 is a fun relaxing place to play.

 

i would say things that help make it stack-easy is  u cant damage ur self with heavy weapons u cant hurt ur teammates . and u cant really do objectives till last 5 min on most maps .. also not being able to heal with Ur needle sucks too.lol also not being able to damage tanks and trucks.

 

but like i said i like to relax so ..not a big issue for me.. but i have noticed this too..

 

also some people wont play axis only allies which doesn't help when they are already stacked.

 

but  if u play et for stats ur on wrong server to begin with .

 

i really appreciate the fact tho, That fa has this great place for us eters too et it up tho.

For starters, thanks for providing some feedback about it.

 

Here are my 2 cents

 

There hasn't ever been a shuffle in all of the time I've ever played there.

 

Well, IMO shuffle by XP never fixed a problem and never will.

A more effective way is to ask players to even up. Then, you move them.

Plus, you know very well that after a shuffle people will go spec crying (WTF, my spree. No way, I never play axis.... I am sure you got the gist),  then will  try to switch back unless an admin prevents them from doing that.

 

 

Even when teams are even, and even with anti rush in place, there's usually  a team that dominates and when you look at the scores there's no mystery as to why.

 

True but hard to always keep a 6 vs 6….. and perfect close scores. Doing our best here.

They cheer about their killing sprees, when it's 7 vs 3..

 

Ofc they do, otherwise they would not be capable of doing so well. They feel reassured

 

 No one wants to switch teams, shuffle, or work to make it fair.

 

Untrue, some are willing to switch but yes we have many stackers on Jay2.

 

nothing ever occurs to correct it...

 

admins do their best to make it fair. All the help they can get from regulars is always appreciated.

 

 

 

also some people wont play axis only allies which doesn't help when they are already stacked.

 

True and sadly we have too many of them

Sounds normal to me of Jay2 but Jay1 some admins sometimes like once a week will accidentally shuffle.

 

Here's my expression why afk so much lately.

 

There's only two rules.

Rule number 1 Don't talk about Fight Club

Rule number 2 Don't talk about Fight Club

 

 

Just go along with it you'd feel better afk a while.
