I'm enjoying NS2, but I face the same frustrations as NS1 such as nobody wanting to comm, or a crappy comm. For a good game you need to have two commanders who want to command and can do an average job, plus two even teams, plus some luck. It's a hard combination to get which ends in only about 1 out of 3 games being much fun.
You can stick to your favourite servers where you all know each other, but perhaps there is a better solution. Not everything can be fixed, but perhaps some can be improved.
Here is an idea, the game doesn't start until there are two commanders. This would eliminate the case where nobody goes comm and the game is ruined, or one team gets a head start.
But lets take it to the next level, let more than one person choose to go comm and then let the players decide based on a vote who gets to comm.
When choosing who to vote for some basic information should be displayed about each player:
Have they got a mic?
How many times they have played commander?
How many hours of NS they have played.

This could be made as a mod. Perhaps not the number of commander hours or if they have a mic, but time played playing NS2 will show up when you look on someone's steam profile.
