I honestly don't know if this is an existing topic, because the "search" feature doesn't function for me in this forum.
I also love the game, and am really not the type to complain about developer stuff. (After all, this game already has less issues than Skyrim, and I spent a good chunk of my life there too.)
But I've been legitimately finding myself playing MWO less often lately, because I just absolutely cannot tolerate the amount of times that River City and Viridian Bog come up. It's completely unreasonable, IMO.
Some of us don't like to hear the same song on the radio 5 times in an hour. Same applies to map rotation. I personally don't care if a map is brand-new, I value VARIETY above all else, and get very frustrated when every game starts to feel the same, because I can't remember the last time I played on the maps I really enjoy.
I didn't know where else to put this, but seriously: please do something about this. I can't possibly be the only one fed up with that. (Especially since River City is the ONLY map I truly don't like, haha.)

It's true--their RNG for maps really has to be better.
I guess one problem is that with 24 players total, someone's bound to get the repeated map. One thing they can do is have 3 or 4 maps become possible to be randomized up every 10 minutes. This way, after a game or two, the next 2 or 3 maps are bound to be different.

If I had a choice I would like to see Alpine pop up more frequently. Seems that I'm in the swamp more times than not recently.

I understand it wouldn't be fair if we could all just choose which maps to never play. (Terra Therma would be nothing but Gauss players.)
But we balance tonnage, weapons, armor, etc, in an effort to improve overall balance regardless of weight class/build.
Balance is seriously affected when someone gets stuck on River City Night, three times for every round another map comes up. One can hardly test the potential of a build, if they're stuck playing the same two (ill-suited) maps for 45 minutes out of every hour.
That can murder your stats, (if you're a player who cares about such things.)
I'm just sick of the same song, 10 times a day, so to speak.
