I agree, this is absolutely horrible. Friend and I have been trying to play Versus on the same team for about a week now (schedules not working out), and we finally did on Saturday, and after the first map I was switched to the other team, losing my turn as Infected altogether and now playing with strangers I don't know. People were getting switched after almost every map, it sucked and completely ruined our game. I didn't play again over the weekend...specifically because of this problem.
It's bad enough that after each round I have to play as Survivor when I just want to play as Infected, let alone losing my Infected turns several times through a round and having to play as a Survivor twice on the same map, and 3, sometimes 4 maps in a row because of this auto balance. Valve, please give us... - Versus Campaign mode that doesn't alternate teams at all, so we can choose whether to be Infected or Survivor from beginning to end. - Turn off auto-balance. - Add server selection in the Lobby so we can select a specific server to join to. - Steam group servers...Ping and player info would be useful instead of just a name on the Main Menu. Along with being able to filter this by Ping. IMO, These are the primary things holding back L4D.
