I'm tired of this, I really am. I don't mind getting these maps on an even basis, but I'm experiencing serious eye fatigue from playing 41% of my games on maps that require you to be in thermal vision for the entire match if you want to be able to see anyone.





The rage leads me to do things like blow away the DDC missile boat on my team when it's just me and him left. I also killed an afk Cicada 3M. Finally got two ecm mechs on my team, and both were useless to us.

Teamkilling out of "rage" is never OK, period.

RC night is still a relatively new map. The devs may have increased the spawn rate to gather more information.
Nothing is stated regarding a flat probability for each map.

I don't know why this needs to be said but you're being ignorant by complaining about a function that's already being changed, and teamkilling because you're having a tantrum is just going to get you banned.

Random map rotation is random. My stats show a fairly even distribution. That, sir, is just bad luck.

Thanks for submitting your TK report, they should be banning you in 3... 2...

Those two maps do tend to come up a lot and both are dreadful imo

[Escef]

I'm as upset as anyone about the poor rotation of maps. But I'm far more unsettled by the OP thinking the right thing to do is kill teammates. That kind of psychotic behavior is a no-go.

[Training Instructor]

A tantrum would be wild shots and cursing.

I quite deliberately targeted his rear CT and blew it out.

I didn't use any foul language or call anyone names in game, or even comment on the abilities of the DDC who had spent most of the match launching missiles into buildings rather than mechs. He was going to die anyways, all that mattered was time and method.

RCN and FCN are my most common maps as well. My least played map is Forest Colony. I get Alpine and River City equally. I too can't wait for the new thermal/night vision modes. Thermal gives me headaches.

OK

1. You are having a bad streak it happens in a random system but the data is pretty clear it's not weighted. you can see that here http://mwomercs.com/...ency-data-dump/

2. I'm adding you data to my collection to increase the sampl size

3. It's Never OK to TK (unless they have intentionally fired on you first at which point they aren't teammates anymore).

The majority of my matches are also on River City day or night.

there are many people who get frozen or forest as the majority, some even have alpine of caustic more than anything else. on the whole though it seems to balance out over a large statistically significant sample set.

I don't think logic has any place in a circlejerk.

Unless it is me. You can TK me with impunity, because it is "For the good of the team"

Last time I checked you're not required to use thermal on any map...

Yeah, you're going to drop into River City and River City Night an average number of times over the long run anyways. All that the matchmaker is doing is messing with the timing and placement...

It's bad luck. No-one at PGI is coding the matchmaker thinking "how can I ruin Training Instructor's day today?!" Believing that the matchmaker/map rotation/game is out to get you is "magical thinking" - just rationalization to try to explain the incredibly bad luck.

Passing on your bad luck by teamkilling... uncool... Because you're having a bad day, your teammates should as well?
