Im noticing this Map seems to be dropped off the radar as much as possible.

This is over the past week I have noticed that HPG isnt up for selection as much as other older maps, example being I see Alpine available for selection more or Canyon, or even Crimson.

Polar is obviously on nearly EVERY map selection out of 4, almost always.

I love HPG, isnt there some ideal fix coming soon, Gyrok mentioned a good idea to lockout game modes, well, I wanna lockout some maps, so throw that one out!

Or just simply turn the Percentage of HPG showing up for selection back up.

Boiled down to simplicity, All maps should be on level percentages to be brought up for selection, having Polar shoved down my throat for LRM boats before the Archer is even out, Christ.

Or even Select out of 6 Maps, instead of 4, because if Dominations being added, wont we need a triple select bar there or will we get horrible traps like Conquest or Domination mode, no Skirmish or Assault available?

Sorry to blabber on, overall I just wanna see more of HPG, 1-2 times available for selection (Not play due to LRMs wanting Polar) out of Approx 30 games isnt acceptable to my mind.

I didnt read anything in the patch notes for increasing the map selection screen or game modes, so I do worry a bit if we are now going to end up with people leaving simply because they get fedup of map repeats, Ive honestlt had my fill of Polar already for a crumpled up piece of paper that was stretched back out across a desk and called a map.

I would rather play Tera Therma in a LPL vomit Direwolf without speed tweak and no Heat sinks, that should say all.

More Map selectivity to the players!

Welcome to the nature of RNG. Sometimes you go an entire night without seeing one of the maps. Other times it's there for every selection.

But an Entire week?

And it honestly feels like HPG was the map to suffer less RNG choice for Polar. I see Tera Therma more than HPG!

I'm not seeing what the OP sees. I see every map in rotation. Played HPG several times last night.

I am logging all of the map selections today to see if there is any trending. Will post data later. Should have a 30-40 match sample size

HPG shows up 1 out of 4 games so it's somewhat rare for me to see and the one map I don't want to see(Terribad therma) shows up every 2 games.

I feel your pain OP.

HPG Manifold is my favorite map by far.

I took a roughly 8 month break from the game and now that I'm back I see Polar Highlands every single rotation, but HPG Manifold is a choice perhaps every 6-7 rotations.

Youre right, they specifically programmed the map rotation to never show HPG if anyone with CWDG-Tags is in the playerpool. There, is that what you wanted to hear?

I get it way to often,like if it's a choice it's picked almost always.

Unfortunatey I am not overly fond of this map it's kinda crap in design with less than one quarter of it ever being used because skirmish...almost always skirmish... on HPG...yawn... almost dozed off thinking about HPG skirmish it's that dull.

run as fast as you can to the center you you don't get sniped right off the bat as you enter the "arena" and climb the "hill" and circle the "hill" and shoot up or down the "hill" it's all about using 6 - 8 of the grid squares on this map.

Sadly I bet even if it was reduced to 6 squares as long as they were the hill grids people would ALWAYS pick it as a skirmish. It would be hugely popular because now you can't do anything but circle and/or climp the middle and shoot up/down on it.

Ultimate king of the NASCAR hill match.

morons...

Screw it. Morons who don't understand how random numbers work just create useless threads and complain when others try to explain what random means.

simplifying this because I have to clock out in a few

OP:"I never get to see 'x' map, why is this happening?"

commenter 1: "IDK OP, I've gotten 'x' map several times"

commenter 2: "I've gotten nothing but 'x' map"

commenter 3: "I honestly don't know what you guys are talking about, it's random"

OP: "*insert various 3rd grade level insults* gah, you guys just don't get it"



did you not get enough attention in the other thread, OP?
