That's right, this has finally bugged me enough to start a thread about it. Might be a bit late, but...
Currently siege auto-balance is done at the start of each round. And that just doesn't work. Just the other day we had 27 (defenders) vs 18 (attackers) or something equally insane. Siege auto-balance should to be changed to work like in TDM, so that the teams are kept fairly balanced throughout the round. As it is now, teams get balanced at the start of the round, just to be equally unbalanced again 30 sec later.

People tend to join the defenders, the winning team or the Nords. When all those are the same team, we ridiculous balances like the one mentioned above. If Nords are defending there is almost certainly a 2-4 player advantage for that team, which makes attacking vs Nords tedious and boring. Not to mention that Nords defending are the scenario in a third of the sieges. Not that I have that much against Nords defending, if the teams would've been kept equal.

That being said, teams are often unbalanced in siege, with or without Nords. So, please, change siege auto-balance to be like in TDM.
