Teamstacking has been as issue since the days of TFC. We'd have clans stacking while playing under aliases. They thought they were slick.

i read almost all of what everyone said but i did skim some, so if somebody already mentioned this then sorry about the repetition

i also auto-assign every single time, on every map. i think the problem is that most newbies select allies. when people start playing the game, most of them pick allies because they want to be the "good guys" and they don't want to be a "nazi". a lot of them are also obsessed with the thompson, and new snipers always prefer the allied sniper rifle because the scope is easier to use and new machine gunners prefer the mg40 because the ammo box is enormous. i would even imagine that a lot of them think the allied uniform looks better and so they pick them for that reason. after they start out their DOD experience by picking allies, it's a habit that they keep for months i would guess. so the result is that a lot of the lesser skilled people choose allies (on every map, not just avalanche) and then the rest of us who hit auto-assign get axis. i would say i literally auto-assign to axis around 90% of the time.

the problem is just a lot more noticeable on a map like avalanche which is not very balanced.

[v.o.c]

i always play allie on everymap unless teams become uneven of allies have more players when i join, ava is in my opinion stacked heavily towards axis as fighting down hill is allways easier, but it does only take a couple of the attack minded players on allie to at least prolong the game 4 or 5 skilled players working together can often do enough to drag the rest of the team with them even against a fairly stacked team. although im not a reallygood player i am attack minded and will usually manage to find someone else to work with, i enjoy ava 90% of the time even against a stacked team as i like the challange

Hi all ...

Sorry for me jumping in so far down the line ... but I've been in South Africa for the last couple of weeks and I didn't have an internet connection (so that is why you haven't been seeing me on Ava)

My name was mentioned a few times as well as the 100+ kills ... so for the record, from my point, I just want to mention something:

On Ava I've never stopped from capping the last flag just to make more kills ...
(1) there is no sense in running down there if you're alone
(2) actually getting the last flag helps you get more kills since you can do the corner nade the start of the next round.

Most of the time I've gotten a +/- 100 kills on Ava I've been in the top 3 or so for flag caps too ... and I'm not boasting ... just explaining my game play in that I'm not camping to get try and get a 100 kills.

I actually didn't realize that it was seen as a issue ...

The last couple of times I've played Ava, I actually enjoyed playing against the skilled guys on Allies, since they made it really tough to play my game play on Ava.

The last time I played Ava and got a 100+ kills, I actually told some of the guys on there that next time I'll play Allies , because I want to get better at allies side.

So the next time I play (in a couple of weeks back from SA) you'll see me on the Allies side on Ava, because the last thing I want to do is spoil other peoples fun ... and I didn't know that always playin on Axis was doing that

I'll still play Axis every now and then but not the whole time.

So ... let's have some fun and I'll see you guys ina couple of weeks.

Thanks
oXo

PS: If you reply and I don't reply ... I'm not ignoring you ... I'm in 56k baud South Africa

I personally hate playing this map...its honestly no fun nemore cause if you are on the axis side it gets annoying because the allies dont try to attack and just camp. if you are on the allies side you try to attack urself but a wall of nades come down on you and u can't do nething about it. I personally feel that the best way to solve the problem is to induce action from the allies. This map is allie based, if the allies dont attack they get CRUSHED, so if the allies attack then the map is just much much more fun

alright boys...i didn't read all of your postes but i got a small idea...and i am on allies a lot on this map and sometimes yes it is nade spammed but are we forgetting the house? You can climb the ladder and walk across the arch and get into the house...OMG NO NADES!!!! i know that it can be camped by axis but that is were the shotting skill comes in. And i guess i can let you in on a secret of mine....go un into the house by the main sniper window...prime a nade off the wall, use arrows to go left, throw nade, and go right...you are exposed for about .0000003 seconds and you can get your nade almost anywhere on the left side of mid...my complaint is when one team is obviously winning (about every 60secs) and no one evens out the teams...

i dont like auto assign that much at all...usually if u click on one of the teams and it is full then it wont let u join...i basically keep clicking until it lets me join the team that i want...i dont do this to stack the teams but rather the fact that i like certain teams on certain maps. Like i enjoy allies much more than axis on Charlie...i also like Axis on flugplatz than allies...and i like allies on glider. On the rare occasion that i do auto assign...i usually do end up on the AXIS though...

You may have seen me yell "EVA STACKS!" multiple times, but I'm always just kidding around.

Frankly, I like a stacked team. I dont like uneven teams in terms of numbers, but stacked? So what?

This is probably because i'm more of a power player, I know thats conceited but I'm pretty sure other people have listed me as on before, but I like having Squirrel, Frosty and Inno coming at me at the same time, and me taking them all, or even one of them out. I have a great time doing that on any map.

I'm sure its a little harder though when it comes to the newbies, or less skilled players. Squirrel is a handful to deal with by himself. If I was new to the game, he's the person I'd avoid at all costs. And I guess having him and a constant slew of other good players coming at me and my newb team, I'd be upset too.

Oh well, a little overpowered competition only forces you to get better. Keep practicing, and you'll be pwning them in no time! GO FOR IT!! QUIT YOUR JOBS!! ONLY PLAY DOD!!! MAL GIBSON FTW!
