Anyone else wish for this? My loadouts differ greatly based on whether I am attacking or defending. Currently the game doesn't let you know until after you choose your loadout. Seems like it would be an easy thing to fix.

But that takes the surprise out of it!

Well, the first time it doesn't announce it. But after that you'll know what's up next, and choose your loadout to serve its purpose.

I'm with you. Its lame guessing wrong and having a defensive loadout chosen when you need a big daddy killing loadout ready.

I think that Team Andrew Ryan always starts off with the Little Sister and defends while Team Atlas always attacks first.

Would be good.. I made a big daddy killing class but pointless using it when you're defending.

So, not everyone may have played as many hours as I have, but sometimes you're able to figure it out by where the game places you when you get ready to start and are choosing your loadout.

That is annouying, I tend to go my 3rd random class to start off with.
Either way, you will end up dying fast unless you are the big daddy or camping, so you don't spend too long unaware of what side your on.

what??? Here some advice. Wait till the announcer tells you what you are doing before picking a loadout jesus man all you need is a little patience.

If you wait for a couple of seconds after the match starts, you can hear your team leader announce it, and you won't get kicked for being idle.

You can wait a bit for the announcer, or look and see if your closer (capture) or far away (defend) from the vent, but it would be nice if it told you.

I completely agree, nothing worse then trying to attack when you've chosen your defense set up. However, this problem isn't to bad, as it is easily fixed when you die heh. I would much rather have the multiplayer stop freezing randomly.

Me...I like things random. I'm impatient so I spawn right away. When I hear that I got the wrong loadout...it puts me in Rambo mode. Try to take out a couple guys and announce to my team there whereabouts. Die and switch up.
I wish you could play all the game types in one long match. Like a big Adam festival. With the game types being random, you would always be guessing.
