Team Switching in Arcade

[Sweetenerera]

Some people like to switch team the last seconds before the game starts which makes the teams unfair.
If the teams are unfair, the game won't start.

I had a few ideas how to fix this:
- Add so you can't switch teams the last few seconds.
- Add so you can't keep switching teams every second.
- If the game is unfair a second time, make the teams fair automatic. (Of course don't separate the people in a party, but if you have to, do it.)

I think you rather want the game to actually start...

Please change this. Arcade is already dead, so if a game is full enough to start, it's annoying if you have to wait.

I agree with this thread 100%.
many of these suggestions are understandable and justify themselves enough for me to agree with them. I know it is very frustrating when teams become unbalanced in games especially arcade as most of the time it is impossible to win like this and can really annoy players. This possibly decreasing the fun of their experience on Cubecraft, which is something we do NOT desire.

I am for all the suggestions especially the can't switch teams every second or so as this can become very annoying for certain players. As well as this, there could also be a team balancing system in place so you are unable to switch or choose a team if the game seems unbalanced. For example, if red had 5 players and Green had 4 a message would appear like "Unable to join a team at this time due to teams being unbalanced" Or something along those lines so games become more balanced towards more of a player standard rather than the system deciding ​

To be honest, I woudn't mind not having any team picker in arcade. I never really cared about which team I landed in.

Unbalanced teams could be a problem in a game like Barn Brawl where teamwork is incredibly important, but I fail to see why this team switcher feature you're suggesting will change it. Won't the teams stay unbalanced? What if they switch before you can't switch anymore, making this problem appear earlier than usual?

I agree with you on this one. I dont get this problem that much, but I get it a ton on blockwars. Once I had a 3v10 which was completely unfair.
