This is Hotjoin/Practice of course…

It used to be that when you are auto-balanced without volunteering for it, you’d get the win-points in any case.

Today this has happened twice to me and I did not get the points.

That’s not exactly a good incentive to keep playing the match, when you are forced to switch against your wishes…

You are assuming it is a bug and not an intentional change?

The autobalance functionality should still be the same.

Why not just volunteer and getting the win bouns in any case? You can’t be forced when you volunteer!

Alberto is right. Happened to me 2 days ago, while defending a point I was thrown suddenly and without warning to the base of the opposite team. I didn’t see a message for auto-balance, or option for volunteering. After the game I got no bonus points and missed my AP for 25 matches won as engineer.

The night is dark and full of turnips.

Autobalance is broken. You can come into the game without having been on any team, the autobalance starts and you can volunteer for it from spectator and still get the bonus and win bonus

Because sometimes I prefer to stay with the team, with which I have played for the last 10 minutes…

Let me guess: It was a game where your team stomped the other hard, and coincidentally everybody on your team got such a deep emotional bonding to each other within these 10 minutes, such that the thought of changing teams was unfeasible for your poor souls?
