The worst part about new maps is when Piranha increases the spawn rate to the point where you have to play that map up to 1/2 of your game time for weeks on end. Please stop making people hate your game and let the spawn rate be equal for the maps.

It doesn't spawn more than the other maps?

I got it about 2/3 of my games on Friday night over the span of 3-4 hours worth of constant dropping.

It doesn't. Mathematically speaking random numbers can occur repeatedly in a row. as in if you flip a coin 100 times, you will get sequences of heads and tails. you just got unlucky.

They said that it would be heavier in rotation for the first couple of weeks.
so op isn't nuts
but

I do hate that people ***** and moan for new maps and then when we get it we get a wave of "oh God I'm so sick of playing the new map every time"

This communtiy excels at finding something to whine about.

They can release new maps without forcing you to play the new map till you want to vomit. They do it with all new maps and its getting really old. If they wanted to skew the map spawn rate by 5%, it would be dooable, but its not 5%, its more like a 50% increase in drop rate.

Yeah, they do that to increase the chance of us finding and reporting glitches that were missed in development and testing. Once they get enough feedback about where the problem areas are, they dial it back to normal levels and hammer out those rough spots, improving map quality. It's all part of the process, and will happen all over again when they drop the next map.

Please increase the spawn rate of new maps. I am pretty tired off all the old ones, and I'd rather play the new map 2/3 the time.

I find it funny that there is another thread floating around about someone complaining that they never see the new map.

Funny...I've played it like 3 times since it came out. I thought they were lying about its rotation rate being increased.

It seems like people will make a complaint post about *anything* that they see a positive post for, Just to be complaining.

These servers are weird. IT seems like I always end up in these runs of the same map for a few matches then it switches gears to another map for few, rinse and repeat.

Its always this way man, new maps get heavy rotation so everyone gets a good chance to play on it and learn the map well.

Its usually dialed back a little by next patch and then normalized with the other maps in rotation after that.
