. A valid tactic when solo but cheesy as hell when with others. Even if one of them dies, they just feed back information via some third-party voice-chat programme and tell their other team-mates when people are approaching, where to find other players, etc. There is no denying there is a certain cheapness to that.
I only agree with this statement when it comes to teams, people will use skype and steam to communicate with other players after death. This is my only actual problem with teams. Perhaps after you die, if you were kicked from the server and no one is allowed to join after start. I understand this is a bit dramatic, but I think this issue has to be addressed somehow.

Most teams are full of new players spamming the chat asking for team. 95% of the people in these teams are "noobs" and are quite easy to kill even in big groups. The big teams of pros (The Arena Masters, Team Sprillity) are hard to beat.
I suggest you team up with some friends on skype/teamspeak/all-sit-at-a-table-with-computers-and-be-nerdy. I have done this before (all of them :)) and they help a lot with doing well in the game. They don't always guarantee the win, but they are always fun :)

I'm not going to go down the "If you can't beat em' join them" road, i stick to my opinion and i wont be one of them!

I think the "if you cannot beat them, join them" sentiment is also a kick in the teeth. That's basically saying "if the cheapness is unfair and annoys you, be cheap yourself so all of the solos get annoyed even more". It doesn't rub well me. Teams should be reserved for two people, with friends and without doing the communication thing after one has died. Of course they never will be, which just annoys everyone even more and creates further frustration.

I think this game shouldn't be fair, like krasso said.
You have the option to make a team yourself.

I agree teams can be unfair but it is more fun to play with a friend. I think there should be anti-teaming servers for people who play solo and servers for those who dont,but i dont see how this could be done :/

I don't say teaming is fun.
I think teamers can't win by their own.
But they should be able to team, that's the game.

I don't team btw for the onces thinking that :p

The only time i have played in a team was with a friend (when we were both new and wanted to play together) It's fun, not denying that, although it is questionable for the other players in the server. When it's two inexperienced people such as ourselves back then it didn't really matter as we were like two halves making a whole. But i doubt i will ever team with people i do not know of, which is what half of the community seems to do, and it appears some "veteran" players (i use that term looseley) like to team up anyway despite them being more than capable of doing it solo.

This is where the problems start.
