The same 3 maps keep cycling through Breakthrough. No change. Not once. Not in the last 36 hours. 5 maps I haven't seen since Wednesday night. What they hell are they doing?
I am so sick to death of Hourglass, in conquest and breakthrough it's such a disappointing map. sand, sand, bland, bland.
Domination in the stadium section could be good, but oh, we don't have domination as a game mode.
@EA_Atic @Straatford87 is someone able to get across this urgently please?
It's breaking the experience for everyone who plays Breakthrough.
For me its Discarded and Exposure I get all the time although that is in Conquest and Exodus. This is also since the season pass started.
I saw Hourglass once and Orbital once. However that was backfilling into a rounds that was nearly over.
And want to know something funny?
Even in solo/coop on any game mode Discarded is the first map I will get if I use the random map option. lol I am not kidding. Match making for me is obsessed with Discarded.
So it seems that match making is bugged in every single mode that is not persistent server on Portal. This is also another reason why we need persistent servers in this game. that way you wont be constantly be sent to the same 2-3 maps because you can just stay on one server and follow the rotation.

This does NOT work. We were playing several rounds tonight and always waited for the timer to run out. Did work ONCE! out of at least 6 rounds (and it could have been by accident that we joint the same server again).
I therefore have to call FAKE NEWS on that one, sadly.
If too many people leave by clicking "Exit to Menu" instead of waiting, it will cause the matchmaker to reset you. I assume this is because that prior, dynamic, server instance gets torn down. Then you get put back into a match making queue and land on a new server which is likely just spun up and starting the map rotation on the 1st map again.
I think a big part of the problem is that it takes too long to rotate and the UI doesn't clearly communicate to players that they have to wait for it to load. Everyone is "exiting to main menu" and aborting the map rotation.
I received a reply on Twitter that EA Dice are aware of the issue and are working on it
I don't understand why they can't respond to the hundreds of reports on their official forums.
