What is going on?

[Ghost]

Today, Some of the worst games i have ever seen. Not because of lag, or because of losing etc... Just because of team switching on a PvP server.

First match i joined, I joined on a team full of bots... vs a team of 5 humans - on a PvP server. Cos switched to help me, But 4 witches continued to play on one team - saying it was "fun", even though that destroys the idea of a PvP server. At first, I thought... Ok. This was just one co-op round, nothing to worry about.

But then the second match, The same people tried to switch all onto the same team again! So it was me vs all of em again (cos left after the last game). And of course, they are all witches again... So it ruins the PvP idea of the server.

What I don't understand... Is why people persistently change on a PvP server to constantly Co-op or un-even the teams by a huge amount. The owner of the server was playing too... So I don't get why he didn't just change the server to a co-op server, instead of them all switching to one team at the beginning of a match.

Why do some players love the idea of constantly changing teams on a PvP server - instead of just hosting a Co-op one  . It ruins the game for the next person who joins... Meaning that they most likely leave.

It's confusing. Any ideas?

What I don't understand... Is why people constantly keep whining about this?

Seriously, it's always been there. It will always be there. If you don't have a way how to prevent this, please shush.

were they all newbies? names man names 

[Ghost]

No, not all newbies.

It was lance, gabry and i think relaxii during the second round who changed to all 1 team.

And lance was hosting the server... So i don't see why he didn't just host a co-op server  .

And hullu, I have already spoken to johan about a possible change to the balancing system - but he can't change them i don't think.

I'm not saying that something should be done to stop it from ever happening again, I just dont understand why people keep on doing it.

I joined 1 game before than you ghost and it was 4 witches as you said. They allowed me to change but that wasnt still fun.

At next game there were 3v2 but of course those 2 joined to dark and it was players vs bots. You came, i saw that you didnt like this position so i changed...

There will always be noob changers.

Its all about rating by the sound of it.

I just don't get why they want to do that though?  .

I don't really mind the occasional 5vs7 or 6vs8 etc - because each team has a chance to win, even if just 1 more person is on the other side. However, this wasn't a small "one-off" change. It was all vs 0,all vs 1 or all vs 2 pretty much every round - on a pvp server.

If the host and other players wanted to play co-op, why not just change the server settings? ... so that when the next person who joins isn't playing vs 5 humans etc with 2 relics already (for example)

[zezuan]

they want all vs one because they want to huminilate the one person..... that's simple. but i dont see the point doing that 

[ReverendLostLamb]

Not everything needs to have a point.

I doubt it's to humiliate someone, that's too personal for the amount of times it happens - to a variety of people.
