I've just switched off auto balance as a test to see if it helps keep teams a little more even skill wise.
Although it's now completely up to the players. Hopefully people will show enough sportsmanship to improve the fairly frequent problem of uneven teams.

If people will check the information listed on the hud ( scores & # of players per team ) a few times per map it should be more than enough to fix the problem.

Another issue which had been brought up several times is the auto-balance in COD2 sucks compared to COD, it kills you to switch teams in stead of waiting for a player to die.

I'm truly amazed IW couldn't come up with a simple option built into the game to auto balance based on something more relevant than number of players.

Sorry. don't think so

You may be right about autobalance killing you in cod also, I only played it a few times.

I don't like the idea of forcing auto-balance as the only option, since it doesn't do anything to address the problems of the huge variances between players skill. Plus it's easily bypasses to allow for stacking.
At tleast with auto-balance off there is the option available to the better players to show some sportsmanship and switch up teams if they are noticeably unfair.

The biggest problem is going to be players who will only play on one team because of weapon selelction.
