Hey fellas!

 

Havent been playing HAWKEN for almost 3 years now and decided to have another try. New mechs, some new maps and nice additions, The game has grown quite a bunch and its awesome to see that :)

 

On the other hand, whats been standing out a lot in the past few days since Ive played again: the team balance. Wow.

 

Ive rarely seen any actual close rounds yet. Either my team is moving through the map chilled like a midsummer stroll in the park or it is getting upright humiliated and torn apart to pieces.

 

I know that theres already a group of elite players and some who might have installed the game some weeks ago, but since now it seemed to me that whenever teams are built, the good players are sorted into one team and the bad ones into the other one. Surely there are some balanced rounds here and there, but compared to other games, a LOT of battles in here are already decided after the first third of the round.

 

Do some of you think that this game could use some team balance polishing or are my 5 days not enough to already jump to a conclusion? Maybe I also just remember it too differently, cause it was pretty well balanced back when the open beta started...

That's what happens when the servers go down! Posting is not at all an indication of how much hawken one has played.

He's actually just suspicious that it's a single player making multiple accounts and posts.

I'm thinking not a smurf. This guy seems more reasonable and coherent than a lot of posts about team balance.

Lol, I swear it's not me. I already made my post.

TRIBES: Developed a server mod with 40 servers, 20 clans, and competitive league play.

PLANETSIDE: Got about 30 suggested changes implemented, and 40,000 game downloads via a 1Mb mini-installer I developed.

Play only DM and you will not have problem with the team balance anymore.

(maybe)

Ha!  I quit playing DM because of people playing it like a team mode.


To be serious for a moment this is just a joke

I have a solution. Base the team balance solely on a players previous match K/D & Assists. Maybe averaged 6 matches or so back. Ping should probably be a factor as well since low ping is a distinct advantage.

 

When you get stomped in a match, and then you end up with the exact same team, there is a problem. The system is actively working to make the game terrible.
