Its Skirmish , PGI you really screwed up this time its Skirmish even when its not , some times kids will not learn, (thats what we call stupid)
Caps ? no they dont see them. Base? whats that?
oh you win and your own team rails on you ?????


go back to letting us pick or unpick game modes.

and by the way it isnt faster ,,, just what Im seeing.

[MadFJohn]

aye still same wait time for mach and the vote not working. not having any fun playing. almost all my friends have stop playing have stop playing over the vote. thats over 30 players. i was hoping it would be better but no it is not.


so now what to do with about a year's worth of premium time and such. will not use it the game sukes atm. i i picked up two of the three unseen hmm.

[Rejarial Galatan]

when will PGI or Russ learn that voting simply must go. Oh sure they SAY its to make it "faster" but, um, why then add 5 additional seconds to voting? What we had prior to voting WORKED and worked WELL. now all we have is a granny in the fast lane doing 35 mph while the rest of us want to do 70+.... no pgi, still not getting it done. take voting OUT.

OH MY GOD !!!! This is terrible I played 5 games tonight when I got home from work after the first drop I was forced into 4 straight conquest games I only play conquest when I want to play it (hardly ever) except during a challenge please give me back my game choice PLEASE !!!!! Are we not suppose to enjoy playing this game ?? TONIGHT WAS NOT ENJOYABLE

[Tuis Ryche]

Still don't like being shoehorned into modes I don't want to play.

**** this voting system.

[Lunatic_Asylum]

1. Please remove map and mode voting. While I understand that I started to get my favorite conquest mode, I do not wish others to be forced into playing the modes they do not want.
Also, the new voting system does not work in one easy manner: I want random maps, so I might vote for a cold map once in a while and lose a chance of getting a hot map. Therefore, I either pass or vote for hottest maps even when I do not want to play them.

2. While I dislike any reward changes to the increased side, I must admit that the newest C-Bill goal changes are beneficial for the majority of players. This was probably a good change for a lot of people.

Dear PGI, I ask you nicely....please remove the voting system.

[Cracko]

I liked the random maps with option to opt in or out of certain types of games. The voting
isn't my favorite.. seems mostly scrimmages.. but I like the variety of games and matches
and voting takes that away.. so my question is with tournaments we need al three modes
I feel that this will make it much harder to get the matches we need to complete the requirements.
maybe I'm missing something.. but not too sure I am..

[Rejarial Galatan]

i just came from a voted match. at the start, as the voting was going on, the vote settled on forest colony, and the modes were skirmish or conquest, just as it chose, the vote was a percentage HIGHER on conquest than skirmish, and YET the mode chosen was <drum roll> skirmish. no. voting MUST GO. period.

And people are just clicking randomly around, judging by the rapidly varying percentages. Yeah, no one gaming the system at all. It's all about the choice.

Thanks Obama.

[POWR]

Just want to add that I don't care at all about the mode.

[Rejarial Galatan]

Tuis lay off Obama. 1. he has nothing to do with this. 2. this is RUSS BULLOCKS fault, he has given us the illusion of choice while bogging us down in crap we dont want.

[Tuis Ryche]

1. it's meant ironically
2. you're goddamn right about that.
3. thanks obama

Vote Weighting

[Rejarial Galatan]

oh also, the added 5 seconds to voting has slowed this crap down more. russ, take it all away man.

Those rapidly varying percentages stem from PGI changing how the votes are displayed now. Before this patch one vote registered as 4% on-screen.
Now the system shows the actual percentage of votes a map/mode gets. One guy votes for map A, nobody else voted for anything = 100% votes for A. One person votes for A and one for B = 50% A vs 50% B and so on and so forth.
That change was necessary because of this new weighted vote abomination or else there'd have been numbers above 100%, which makes no sense.

Kinda weird that they think of things like that but can't see how the weighted votes-change makes the voting system even worse. Like idiot-savant monkeys or something...

[Tuis Ryche]

I know what it stems from, but I can also see by the large jumps in percentage from one map to another that it's not from people 'just tuning in', but people with large multipliers shifting their votes around.

Of course, PGI's response to this layered madness will not be a return to the tried and true system we had earlier, but a 'locked vote'.

Too bad it still funnels people into modes they don't want to play.

[Hit Mech]

PGI, we are trying to make this easy for you by telling you what we want. You don't have to read our minds...we are not you girlfriends. Just go back to the way it was and stop trying to force on us what we don't like. Simple!

[Mustang]
