Re: I still find it strange why we can't have map selection

@KelRieverKings Canyon is a banger, what do you mean?

@KelRieverI have to disagree with you.

Firstly, I don't want to suffer though a map that I don't like simply because the developers wants to feel that their work was not for nothing. I've invested in this game because I thought it was fun, but to have the parts that I liked removed just because, that's not fair. It doesn't really matter how much effort the devs put in to making the map. If it's not well received by the players, it shouldn't be forced upon them. In the end, it's a lose- lose situation. I'm not having fun - ergo I'm not spending more money on the game.

Secondly, if the player had a choice I don't think that everyone would want to always play whats popular right now. I think that the taste is quite varied. But if the majority chooses a certain map over and over, then that should be valuable data for the devs. It tells them what the player like and don't like. If the devs take this into account and ask the community for feedback during the process - then I'm sure that the next map would be awesome!

Everybody has a most favorite and least favorite map.  Map rotation isn't going to stop people from playing the game if they hate one map so bad they have to wait an hour to play it (I don't think map rotations should ever be 2+ hours). 

Except when a new map comes out, unpopular opinion, I am glad they keep it out for 2 weeks.  People are too critical of new maps, and need to learn what they are about before they go shooting off all their first impressions as fixed opinions.  The last 2 map releases are perfect examples of that.

@KelRieverMap rotation might not lead people to stop playing the game, but displeased customers will certainly not spend more money. That's just a proven fact.

When new maps are released they could do a lot of things to encourage players to try it out without forcing it upon them. There could be events, quests and special time limited game modes. Exclusive awards like skins, emotes and trials would certainly attract many players.

yeah but who says which loses more money? You’re assuming map selection is more popular, and it’s not with me for example.

I don’t spend on this game already but it’s because of some other things. Point is the same tho.

@hayhorA half hour rotation would be awful. Some games takes up towards 30 minutes, which could leave you in a bad cycle where you'd have to play the same boring map unless you waited in lobby for the next map. I'm not into wasting time waiting around since I've got limited playtime/day.

I think most players have quite a limited play-time after work or school.

If you're unlucky with the current rotation times you could end up having to play most of your free time on a map you don't like.

@GodisbullenBetter get 2-3 full games with boring map than switch to different, than get 5-6 full games on a boring map

@hayhor @Godisbullen 

Have you guys heared about this new law in China or something where you can game only max 1 hour a day or something?

30 min rotation would allow them to play 2 maps before they clock out
