I know its your new map an all but seriously pgi, 20 games played 15 on Mining Collective is more than any sane person can take..

@OP : did you freeze/disco often everytime you were on the new map ?

[JackPoint]

No KingDaved, but now when I get it I just disconnect/suicide. I refuse to play one map over n over again.

FYI that is a ToS violation and you could be subject to cancellation/banning of your account by admitting it...

Every time a new map is released it has increased odds in the rotation percentage. This is because most people want to play the new maps when they come out, and also so that PGI gets metrics on the usage of the new maps faster. It will go down to normal percentages in one of the next patches.

I do 3/4 of the time when I drop on that map. Doesn't matter what mech.

I used to get the freeze every time, but haven't had a single instance of it, since I enabled DX11.

I'm going to run the repair tool shortly. DX11 caused other issues for me though too. Maybe it's time to try it again....

Map selection is RANDOM. You have either had bad luck or good luck to get it 15 out of the last 20 times (though I suspect exaggeration since you are probably more likely to win the lottery than get one map in 15 out of 20 games). It is weighted more heavily in the rotation at the moment but as another data point I have seen the Mining Collective map about 4 or 5 times in the last 30 or 40 games.

Based on map stats ... I have played on the map 10 times since it was released ... and surprisingly have won all 10 matches played on that map ... which is a bit unusual.

Just verified, I am already up to date.

Repair tool found no issues.

Gonna try DX11 again later, see how that goes. My card is more than capable of handling it.

Im sick of getting the same map over and over. Im not going to play them anymore. If it happens im just going to close my mech or the game.In the case few minutes ago i close the game and im going to go work. I spent a long time being a "good player." Sorry no more.

It has a heavier rotation right now but ironically not everyone apparently gets it quite so heavily. For example, I have seen HPG this weekend way more often than Mining Collective so I guess it really is luck of the draw.

[Duncan Jr Fischer]

New map is great, but its odds really look close to 75%, it's too much to the point people bring specialized builds there with good certainty.

[Scratx]

It's luck of the draw, alright.

And please don't be a-holes and screw over your teammates just because you got the same map, again.


It's not like you're dropping on Terra Therma again and again and again.

LOL really? Who the hell will prevent me from rushing the enemy early. There's no Terms of Service in regards to fu*king tactics and decision making. Call it "tactical surprise" when I rush the enemy team or "I flanked around the wrong part". If I wish to rush the enemy early its my prerogative to do so.

And besides it actually might have usage in that you stop or delay a group of enemies long enough to make a difference.

He specifically said disconnecting and suicide. Both are ToS violations, not tactics, and who says is PGI's ToS.

So much for MW attracting an older, more mature audience.
