I have anything from 8 to 11 players joining a server at once, I do not have the luxury nor do I have the tools at my disposal to consider server balance, I choose the team we can all easily get on period. If admins want to ask me to switch my squad for balancing purposes I am and have been more than amenable to that but it is not my prerogative.

As for stacking 16 players on one side, again, we are two separate PRT squads pubbing independently of one another. We both, perhaps, joined on Fallujah Insurgency and both assumed it would be easier to get our squad over to Insurgents but the first I knew of Fizz being on the server was him contacting me over SL comms on Muttrah.

And as pointed out elsewhere the Kozelsk round where the bizarre decision to switch Fizzco's squad without even asking them was made when we were both on separate teams.

If you are talking about the muttrah round, we were asked to switch next round, but then the server crashed.
We can't do that much about balance without switch rights.
Please, you already had 2 squads at the start of Muttrah and instead of realising how unbalanced it is you got everyone else switched to your side too :roll:

Everyone else being? I had one guy switched on the Muttrah round. Plus i think it's fair to say the balancing of a server shouldn't always rest on the shoulders of 2 squads, we were asked to balance, and we agreed. I didn't see anyone else stepping foward. Anyway this has been dealt with on the based forums and we hope to see this go more smoothly in the future.

Thanks <3

Worst balance of any server.

Admins avoid switching anyone to balance rounds that will obviously be unbalanced, or switch themselves when teams are not particularly unbalanced to get everyone good one one team.

Yesterday we played Khami, teams were obviously unbalanced. It was like 6-70 15 minutes in. Admins then said that they couldn't have known it was unbalanced when all the clans were on the same team.

Khami was the first map with full server. We obviously didn't tend to play with unbalanced teams and corrected this right away for the next map. Also in the Khami round there were no other clans than MONGOL present in the server, so it was even harder to find balance. Although they could've split up but that's not how clans usually work. Towards the mid/end of the round more clans started to get in the server and we could balance the teams for the next round.

You do realize that we CANNOT balance teams mid-round and it has to wait for the next round.

Thank you for your feedback though, we will try our best to balance teams every round.

I am not gonna, because it's pointless. You guys are slowly turning into what made you to host your own server.

There's a Bible quote: "Why do you see the speck that is in your brother's eye, but don't consider the beam that is in your own eye?".

Sorry for the lag today. I am running some other services on that machine that caused a lot of traffic across the ocean ;)

I fixed this by introducing permanent caching for the data, also I will limit the bandwidth for the other services in general.

We are shutting down our general PR server for now:

https://www.alwaysbased.com/threads/shu ... erver.2943

We will continue to host events, tournaments and clan matches for everyone!
(and maybe a Falklands VW 24/7 server)

We were simply not being able to seed regularly for a while now. On top of that PRTA cleaned up their Admin roster and we already had a few of our admins apply over there (the Mongols).

I'd rather have them participate in the PRTA Admin team than desperately trying to seed a server. This makes especially sense since the PR population overall decreased. We are here to have fun and play the game, not to seed for 3 hours every evening with less than 5 players.

I will restructure our backend and infrastructure to be more even orientated. We will have stuff like:

test airfield
Falklands VW 24/7
Match and Event server
PR:WW2

up and running. This is not the end of BASED PR ;)

Schakal is now admin on PRTA. I think its safe to say that you need to re-enable your server.

Do VW 24/7, at least that can be played by a dozen people.
