STRICT banner auto-balance and pikes with flags

[Casimir]

But i enjoy fighting my clan mates from time to time, why would I want to be with them every fucking round?


However do love the idea of Flags, reminds me of PW mod but it needs to be done properly or it looks shite.

Dude, you are not the brightest fellow, so your opinion doesnt mean anything to any reasonable person.

Normal people practice with their clanmates on duel server, their own server, but they want to fight side by side in battle.

Thats the whole point of a clan.

You insult the guy, say his opinion is worthless and then you come up with a statement that begins with "normal people". Sorry, but after that post I don't trust your opinion about what normal people want.

On topic, yeah I would prefer a strict banner auto-balance. As long as its done with banners anyone can change it with a couple of clicks anyway.

I guess this last comment blew up your chances. Not that you had many from start...

Normal people like to have clans, like to fight as a team and also like to play against the guys they are talking to over TS.

Ninja'ed but it's the same point.

[Casimir]

Not our clan. We enjoy the element of public competition and the challenge of fighting several clan mates at once.

I wont be drawn into an argument with you although thats what seems to be your aim so whatever man.

No, I disagree.
In theory leechers with Merc banner would balance it out, but I think it would be mostly done by experienced players, while most newbies will not understand it.
Also I like to play with Mercs or DRZ on my team, but hanging your flag whichever way the wind blows ... well, it's a proverb in german actually. 
Current teambalance works fine as far as I can see, clanmates are together often.

i always try to kill fallen guys if i see them on the enemy team more than any one else but its much more fun to be in the same team and fight together - even if it's a big fail sometimes

i would like to see autobalance by banner working but i think we should have at least 1 battle and siege server that is never balance by banner also

the other thing is that it's open for abuse by people switching faction flags so they can be on the winning side

it's not so hard to imagine people editing their chars after losing their multiplier

[Reinhardt]

Yes! There are a few points as to why not to do this, but I really do like the idea...

Perhaps a clan tag identification system for the same team?

I was thinking of answering your comments, but I dont have to comment every horseshit. =)

Intelligent people tend to assume that everyone is at least somehow intelligent, but obviously in this community its not the case.

And believe me, I do understand that members of particular clans dont like my idea. Noone likes to be pwned all the time.

[ManOfWar]

yes for the idea but stop the trashtalk about us ^^ if you wanna claim everywhere that you can beat us easily let's organize a battle 10vs10 or 15vs15 and if you win i'll let you saying that we suck, otherwise stop this kidness, open challenge for anyone who think he can beat us btw

I wish I could duel you with a not shitty ping olwen!

[Casimir]

As you still seem set out to offend me i will keep my post brief.

The suggestion made by randomdude is IMO the best option if this would be implimenyed as it gives non gaction members a place to go. 

Howeber i hope that the Devs do the intelligent thing and ignore you.

P.s. You will get more support with your ideas if you respond to peoples points and justify yours tather than saying everyone who disagrees with you is "horseshit"

Intelligent people tend to assume that everyone is at least somehow intelligent

and you assumed that that guy is not intelligent?

Good idea.

You two should fight it out in the chinese server. Or the aussie one, if it's back.

Generally I think the suggestion is okay, and clans should be enabled to play together, that's perfectly fine for me. The only problem is: the rest of the server shouldn't suffer from it. What do I mean? That the banner balanced code has its flaws:

Banner balance need 2 functions:

1st: different clans are put into different teams. Not 2 big clans with 10 to 20 players each into ONE team, like the day before yesterday with Shogunate and DRZ. This sucks.

2nd: unless the other team also has got three players of one clan there is following equation: 3 players of one clan = 4 players in enemy team. So the clan teams have to fight bigger random teams. This is fairer for the independant players, and more of a challenge for the clan players.

If those functions don't get implemented, I am AGAINST the suggestion. If banner balance will be improved, I am totally FOR it.

Edit: if you look at the second screenshot it looks like my second suggestion is already implemented. Or is this simple "luck"?
