Enough with the Teamstacking

[Tennenoth]

Personally I don't feel that when most clans get stacked to one team it's that much of a problem. It's when a clan with 90% cavalry for example (my pet bugbear with this game, cavalry get stacked onto one team, that team enjoys x5 unless the map is pure hills & buildings.)

It's been suggested before but isn't a priority to the development team from what I understand, to change the way the system works in order to allow for balance between classes as well.

I've not personally noticed too much of a moment where it got too heavy on the EU servers with 1 team getting stacked (other than me afformentioned bugbear.)

[Overdriven]

I can see the issue. For example GK tonight kept a solid x5 for about 5 maps (around 2h of play, I got 15000 gold and 360000 experience  ). We didn't lose it once (unless one of us got balanced to the other side of course). Bearing in mind there were about 7 of us on, plus random cavs. So it was very cav heavy on the pecores server with 100 guys.

But then if you want to avoid this and do well, join a clan and get in TS like we do.

Enough with exactly the same whine topics on this matter, read previous ones instead of making another one of your own.

Join a clan, or play on the 50 man or another server that has banner balance off.
Easy solutions.

Why was this downrated?

I don't know. the odd thing is, my computer says it is -12 yet I only see five of the names that voted negative.

i always been against banner balance the day it was implemented , i dont like matches ending all the time 5-0 5-1 or 4-1 or  whatever the server you are in, there is a few flaws in the banner balance system i think :

1- it favor the banner before everything else ,  an example : 2 clans together in the game , we see cases where they are put in the same team... 
2- people will say but you have more people on your side : quality over quantity IS always  better , beside tons of peasants end up on the pub team and become clan fodder
3- Banner balance doesnt take consideration into style of players :im sure you guys have fun getting raped by 10 cavs or 10 archers , even clan infantry is fiercer than pubbies

 the 50 man ATS is empty because clans love to play together , and i agree its fun to play with your buddies and TS or ventrillo and warn people even when your death :p ,

i had lots of fun in strategus back then with remains of stratia, when playing with your clan actually made sense  , for public server fighting it should never be on...

                          when xp is on the line that make this balance no good...   

                                                                     
                                  oh old crpg where are thou

people play multiplayer games with friends to fight together, not on different teams.  getting rid of banner balance on pub servers, say goodbye to 20% or more of your population or have even more afk leechers.

I do agree however improvements could be made to SEPARATE clans onto different teams.

wrong, when a cornerstone friend/clanmate leaves, they often bring others with them.  Noone cares if Balbaroth falls of the face of the earth, he's just 1 man (some would say a Myth!).  But its dominoes when someone in a clan stops playing the game.


P.S. I love Balbaroth and do not wish him to get hit by a bus

Banner balance is unfair. Saying join a clan is dumb, that's why it got downgraded.

Saying join a clan is dumb because:

It is bad for the player:

Some people don't want to play in a clan, especially a clan of people who take a game WAYYYY to seriously. Some people simply want to play the game without others getting a huge advantage because of who they associate with.

It is bad for the clans:

If people actually follow your logic, than clans will end up with tons of players who join just to reap the benefits, and care nothing about the clan. Then the application process and acceptance process become more difficult and a waste of time.

Cool. Good points, what about the second half of my sentence?
Join a server (like the 50 man community) without bannerbalance on?

EDIT: Also, what about using a banner of a popular clan?
