Guys this is broken and stupid, the map is pretty lackluster as it is, but having to play it over 50% of the time and having streaks of a dozen times?

It makes me log off for the night, and then I have no reason to spend money on the game.

Sort it out, this is amateur hour nonsense, and really peeving players off, so get someone at PGI to fix it right away because I'm not interested in dealing with this all long weekend, and I'm not alone. If you don't want to see this trending over the next three days someone will have to pick up the slack.

SORT IT OUT.

maybe you missed the memo where PGI increased its rotation AT THE REQUEST OF THE MAJORITY OF PLAYERS for a few days.

smh

Maybe you don't understand moderation? increase rotation is fine, over rotation is most definitely not.

But then you knew that didn't you? or are you saying 11 matches in a row is what this "mythical majority" you seem speak for wanted? because really? really? over 50% in the matches and a dozen times in a row? really?

Yeah, go try to sell that somewhere else, and in the meantime attempt to at least appear rational the next time you want to shout someone down sport.

Sheesh! some people's children!

Maybe you don't understand how the RNG works and a 20% increase in rotation (which is the factual amount of the increase, not your anecdotal pull any number I want out of thin air) works?

Maybe you should educate yourself a little on it?

Maybe do some reading before throwing your tantrum and insinuating that you represent the majority of players whent he majority of players requested the increase in rotation?

keep on keeping on though

Granted I myself have just insinuated that I represent the majority of players.... but uh... I'm ........ pay no attention to the man behind the curtain....

Ninja smoke bomb!......

(scuttle scuttle..)

Your funny! what a big bad founder you are! how dare I disagree with you and all your imaginary friends that make up that "majority" you keep claiming to speak for!



You have said your piece now, so best just run along to tell someone else how wrong they are... unless you actually are a bullying troll? if so then by all means continue.....

The majority I speak of is pulled directly from PGI's statements as opposed to your anecdotal evidence.

Let's see....
How many people are jumping up to support your claims.........
*listens to crickets*

I highly doubt you got one single map 11 times in a row. I sure would like some proof to go along with your claim.

[Zfailboat]

played 5 matches last night.


Got the Bog on 2 out of 5(not a big sample size) However I did notice another person telling me that they had it 7 times in a row.

High rotation should be roughly 1 in 4 matches or there abouts and should only last for 1 week at maximum imo.

I think everyone expects new maps to have a higher rotation.

They could however solve all this problem with a bit of creative maths and programming.

It should have some sort of calculation where it gets all 24 players and if they have played less than 240 times (10 each average) % is 25 of new map, if less than 480 times (20 each average) % is 15 for new map and if over 480 times - standard chance.

[Desolator]

God forbid you play the new map often for a few days.

Oh thats right, because playing one of the other maps you have played a million times already is so much better.

I prefer actually playing on a new map when it comes out, I have already seen and learned all of the other maps.

Every time you drop you have the same (increased) chance of getting the Bog. Streaks are more common than people understand especially when one of the possible outcomes is weighted to be more frequent.

[Lydialeera]

First of all, whenever PGI comes out with a new map they weight it heavier in the matchmaker for a patch cycle or 2. This lets people get used to it and also makes it quicker for any miscellaneous bugs to show their ugly little heads.

Second, even if all of the maps had exactly the same chance of showing up people will run into streaks of the same one. That's just how chance works. Flip a coin and occasionally you'll get a run of 7 heads.

It's times like this that I do feel sorry for PGI. They put out something they poured man-hours into so that we can stomp around in giant robots and shoot each other and no matter what they do someone will get upset and have a temper tantrum like a 5 year old who got the blue pony instead of the pink one.

[WarPickle]

Umm Russ Tweeted that they're going to decrease it's rotation.. it was upped a bit much and also going to lower the god awful fog

I see this map sometimes 7 or 8 times in a row.. others claim to hardly ever see it.

Remember just because it doesn't happen to you doesn't mean it doesn't happen

[Monkey Lover]

Im getting it about every other map . Same gave over and over just take the hill.

[pwnface]

I like the new map and don't mind playing it more frequently. I haven't experienced having ANY map 11 times in a row.

[Clydewinder]

I played ( i think ) 9 rounds today.

8 on Bog

1 on Canyon

Uh where exactly was this request?

[Karl Marlow]

I haven't even played in this map yet.

[Jarl Dane]

I played this map a million times in a row (i counted). This absurdly high number has caused my Atlas to be swallowed up by the bog itself, only a husk of it still remains. Also it has completely destroyed my ability to see different shades of green.

Thanks a lot PGI.

[Violent Nick]

What's really not funny is when you're having an awesome game and then you get STUCK in a locust on nothing in front of an enemy Jager, causing you to get killed and lose the game.

Wish PGI would sort it out.

You'd have to ask Russ. He tweeted it the other day
