@CyberDyme No one can figure out how a random mail generator with 11 maps to choose from will stick to 3-4 maps or less every night, and repeats maps often. Doesn’t seem that hard to create a map generator, seeing as how games, I’m including other BF ones, have this item down pat. It’s just another “feature” that doesn’t work right in 2042. It’s a pretty long list.

@Man_iLoveFishing There is no map rotation, every match is a new instance. You are thrown back into MM after every round. So the odds of you getting any map are just as high as any other. If you play BT, you should get the same map twice but even that doesn't happen every match.

@Man_iLoveFishing This has been since day one because of match making. I was jazzed to get Manifest three times in a row last night. I hate it when all that comes up is Stranded, Exposure and Breakaway.

Yeah it's a new instance every time, but anyone who's ever setup, admin'd or used a spin up/spin down server service knows you can 100% setup a rotation of things. They have you in a lobby right? I mean after a match it goes back to a countdown and then count up while it spins the instance. You can run a rotation out of that for sure.

I for one am happy not being forced to play Hourglass or Breakaway. Saves us the need to cancel match making or even leave the server after one of those maps slipped through.

At least he party leader is shown the map that will come up next BEFORE it loads. So you can do the Search->Cancel->Search->Cancel->Search->Cancel->Search->Cancel->Search cycle (losing 30s for each search on average) to be able to select the map from the pool you want (not the above mentioned atrocities of maps as they are not in the pool at the moment at all it seems).

But what we need is to get CQ 64 back to have access to the good maps (e.g. Valparaiso and Noshar Canals) which is currently broken due to the 64 player match making throwing you on 128 player modes/map versions.

Yeah I have missed not being able to play Exodus the last couple of days due to this latest bug / issue.
I hope they get it sorted today and better still make it permanent.
Valparaiso is my favourite map of the Exodus playlist.
Imho Hourglass is one of the worst BF maps ever and it is the one map I always back out of.
