Map SELECTION ! REMOVE ROTATION PLEASE!
I think that it is really cool that player feedback was heard and changes were made to the map rotation system......but I can't help but feel that one of the player's biggest concerns is not being he...

@Andrexal300No.
There is a good reason it was done it a rotation instead of a pick.
If its a pick, the playerbase gets split between the two maps, que time gets longer (as you said, though this isn't "slightly longer que times"), but there are likely few other problems that start happening.
It might not make sense to you, but you are thinking about "what I want" over "what the consequences would be if I got what I want". Please remember, it's not that they aren't listening, its that they have data the supports different information over a vocal minority.
It's also why solo's don't currently exist in the game outside of LTE modes, because it negatively impacted the game along with player retention, and the numbers reflected.
A prime example of this was Revenant's massive buff. Player's weren't happy with him, the numbers very much reflected this, so he got a massive buff that he really should have had at the beginning of the season.
@MonhulioThis might be anecdotal but I'd say it's somewhat relevant as I might not be the only one (judging by the forums, I'm not). But two of my friends I used to play have stopped playing (we played every day until rotations), I still play but not nearly as much as I used to. First couple days I'd check which map is on and leave if KC was on the menu, played if it was WE, however switched to a different game as soon as KC came back on. Nowadays I don't even enter the game to check, I open a random stream and see what map is on, if it's not to my liking I play something else for the remainder of the day.
I have enough coins for the next battlepass, but I'm not getting it if rotations stay. Not out of protest, just the mere fact that I know I won't play the game nearly enough to justify it.- Regardless though, changes are occurring with the rotation incase you weren't aware before you posted in forums.
https://www.gamespot.com/articles/apex-legends-map-rotation-is-being-changed/1100-6476104/I am aware of the changes although to me they aren't really meaningful at all. I think that if my map selection isnt plausible (which I believe it is) then remove KC in general. Its old. Let the game move forward with new maps and new pieces to the story. Map rotation is a bad system and the feedback has been a resounding NO from so many players. Map selection or choose 1 map.
Yes
Many games use the same system and I do not think you are taking into account the "consequences" of map rotation. Players are leaving the game. I am aware that each sides has pros and *. I've read about them. I heard both sides. "The numbers" will definitely reflect the benefit of map selection. It not just what I want but what the majority of community wants if you scroll through and actually look at the feedback. There are many ways that selection can work and que times wouldn't be that long. There are many tactics that can be tried because rotation is a bad and annoying system. Even if we couldn't get map rotation( which im positive we can) then it should change back to just WE like I stated in my other post because rotation is NOT a good system.
