It sure to me it seems that it is. I think I played that map 33% of all games. If it's rotation is higher than normal - please change it. A lot of players get sick really quick of the same map over and over again.

PS. It was fun at first but now I'd rather play city night. In a light mech. With no ecm. With a standard 210 engine. Against all ecm team.

Yes, the devs said that both Tourmaline and Alpine are more likely to come up (temporarily) in Ask The Devs 34:

A: Every map has an equal chance to show up. However we have recently skewed the randomness towards newer content, such as Alpine or Desert. Eventually players will be able to influence their selection through a voting mechanic in the lobby.

Ahh that explains it. I haven't seen alpine once since patch hit but I can honestly say tourmaline is at least 33% of my games.

They did specify that they had increased the servers capacity for it. Which naturally lead some people to think they had introduced 12v12....
