I started wondering recently how the rest of the BF2 community reacts in the following situation. You're either on a team or join up on a server and end up on a team that's losing pretty badly. We've all joined servers and ended up on the side losing by over a hundred tickets, have only one base, and comprised of mainly lower ranks vs. a team of several officer and higher enlisted ranks.

So, what do you normally do?

I try not to get another purple heart. Then I usually leave to find a better server.

I try to help those gits out. Sometimes, I've pulled it back, made a comprehensible squad comprised of the best players on the team and gone on a killing rampage for all or nothing.

I usually don't bother - I only play for about 1 hour a night - so don't have time to go looking around.  Happened last night to me.....end up playing lone wolf and trying to hunt down people on the edges of the map.

I just disconnect immediatley, doesn't happen to me alot these days though as you can get a pretty nice picture of whats going on in the server by clicking on the server, in the server browser and just looking at the scores of everyone in the 2 teams. If it's like  all negative KDR's for one team and all positive KDR's for the other team then surely the game isn't balanced and no fun. Even if i ended up on the winning team, it wouldn't be much fun...

I only play on one server now so it doesnt really bother me because I am playing with my clan.  And even if we are getting blown away it is fun to make the other team mad at you.

I fight on!

I may complain and try to motivate my team, but i am not like all these stat whores who join a server with an entire squad/clan!

Nor do I team switch!

Pull out the L85A1 and go sit in a building all game with my medpacs and shit. And if i'm with friends, we get a support, medic, and spec ops and sit in a room all game. Usually gets good points. But if it's against spawn raping son's of bitches, then disconnect right before the end of a round.

Most of the time I play with a few other clan mates.
Given that we are the high ranking officer types, we quite like to get onto the lossing side and try to turn the tide.
It's no fun to be on the wrong end of a solid beating, but it is so much more fun to pull back a 100 points and get the win!

Depends... if my team is sucking bad, but atleast trying to win ill stay till the game ends and then leave. If it's just full of fck heads tk'ing u for a heli and instantly crashing into a tree then i leave and find another game.

the team balancing sucks ass, and cus everyone is soo worried about their precious stats they wont even the teams out themselves, i usually stay a few rounds to see if it evens out and see if  i can get some people in a good squad to make a difference, if it doesnt get any better, i go elsewhere and leave them to their raping

If I'm playing alone, I switch to the better side.  If I have a few mates on, I'll go to the sucky side and try to make em win.

Tighten up the boot laces and move ahead.  Generally, if you can pick up a few loose players with skill, you can form a squad and cause some havoc with the opposing team.  Wheather it turns out to be a loss or not, if I can screw an opposing teams rythem, I'll be happy regardless.

i stay... while crying in a corner

it makes me kind of pissed when your team can't do shit, but at the same time, it makes for easier points for me, because my team isn't doing anything

and i don't give two shits about wins/losses, so it doesn't really matter either way

Edit: basically, i do what 'Bearz does

If the team I'm on is horrible (waay worse than me, which is pretty bad), I'll get a little pissed, but that's no reason to jump ship.  I'll give it a few rounds to see if the teams balance back out.  If nothing else, I'll switch to a kit I don't play much, like sniper of spec-ops, and get some practice in.


All but one option in the poll are pretty lame, catering mostly to overly stat conscious folks.
