but I've played it over a dozen times since patch day and I haven't played a whole lot since. Just keep playing, it pops up. I've also played every map too. The grouping could be better as the favored maps get picked a lot when among others, but there isn't really much of an issue with the voting system.

Yeah I've had a decent number of conquest matches so far.

Haven't had the same experience with the maps, though. I have yet to see Caustic Vally or TerraTherma since the voting was implemented.

What tiers are you? As a T5 its not happening for me I'm voting for it but just not getting any matches. Most maps are being made played apart from big and terra.

Yah, these same people keep saying the economy is bad, but not for me, so they must all be wrong...

people seem to think Voting is Clear Cut,
i think its more when certain people are on,

ive noticed(no real Facts here just what ive experienced)
North American Prime time it seems to be Cold Maps and Skirmish,
European Prime time it seems to be Neutral Maps and Conquest,
Oceanic Prime time it seems to be Hot or Large Maps and Assault,

Except this evening I experienced this:
14 skirmish + 2 assault games, before I FINALLY got my first conquest game !

So I refute your vague observation with numbers.

Just dropped Terra Therma Skirmish too.
My point is you people either A) Don't play a lot, or B) only play at specific times which may have large numbers of people who vote the same things. Heck it might even be C) You're just plain unlucky.

Its not that the system is broken, its that you personally feel you're wronged because the voting isn't going your way.

Last night I had four conquest in a row, two back to back on Terra Therma. It all depends on luck.

RNGesus used to randomly pick your map and you could be dropped nothing but frozen/skirmish drop after drop (unless you uncheck skirmish) a least now you have a chance to go where you want to, just got to hope RNGesus puts you with like minded voters.
