I just played and I was the only player with a positive ratio on the losing team. It didn't matter, we got our asses kicked up and down and all around.

If you personally don't care about game balance, that's fine I guess. But the fact of the matter remains; every game developer that ever sold a game spent an immense amount of time on game balance. It can and should be done. And it doesn't need to mean nerfing races, although that's one way. It could also mean increasing the powers of other races, such as a faster timer for the ultimates, etc.


It would *NOT* be boring. The best games in all human history have always been the closest matches that were won by a field goal or a final last ditch effort throw of a basketball at the buzzer. EVERY PLAYER enjoyed EVERY MINUTE of the game because it was so close, and all the time everyone knew that it could go either way. What's boring is watching an MMA fight go 15 seconds. What's boring is a 44-9 superbowl. What's boring is when you're in a WCS game and the score is 19-4 and there's no real hope for a victory at all. The winners get a little joy I guess, but NOTHING AT ALL compared to how people would feel if it ended up being 20-19. THAT is game balance, and THAT is the best entertainment you can ever enjoy.
