To be honest: I don't really care unless Terra Therma gets picked, then I find a way to put in the minimum amount of effort possible within the constraints of PGI's arbitrary rules until the map is over (and am vocal about it as people getting upset that I don't like terra therma as much as them is more entertaining than actually playing the map)..




So instead of playing, You act like a spoiled child? Good show...



Every time i get stuck on frozen skirmish which is my highest map played,, and honestly i find it a total snore.. I STILL play to try to win... I swear with an age base as high as this one, you would think people would be more mature.. But there i go thinking again..

My stats tell a completely different story... though it does seam like people are getting sick of playing frozen and forest colony

No.

We have map selection and changing your mind is perfectly acceptable.

Farming multipliers is the only way anyone can get a Terra drop and I am sorry but I love Terra Therma and will throw away votes till I can get it. The map has tons of choke points, huge amounts of cover and a middle that's three times the size of Caustics which limits the amount of Nascar that I have to put up with.

Blind voting to stop people from farming multiplers.

if u want a map vote for it, a blind vote means it's a fair system.

I said earlier I don't care if a change to blind or locked voting were made, but I am curious: who cares if people are farming multipliers? Even with blind and locked voting you could still try to farm a multiplier by going with a known less popular map. You just wouldn't have the feedback to make it as effective as it is today.

I personally like that people can have more influence to get a map that would otherwise go virtually unplayed. Without the multiplier, we'd almost never see certain maps. I think that's limiting to the game.

I pretty much own map voting 75% of the time and mode voting almost all the time, never have to lose my multipliers to do this either.

ggcorrupt PGI, I broke your system that was unjustified to begin with. Posted Image

Its annoying yeah, every vote is bait and switch.

People vote up the maps nobody wants to play, Terra & Caustic or Alpine, then once enough votes are spread out they switch to what they want.

On the bright side, how else are we ever going to see maps other than Frozen City and HPG though?
Gotta trick people into it with 12x multiplier bait Posted Image

Nobody is willingly going to vote for Terra or Caustic or Alpine most times.

3 of my favorite maps, tired of river city and platform warrior

I'm normally reading a book until the match starts.
Unless I'm wanting a specific map or mode, in which case I flop down my x12 as soon as I see the map I want.

But I'm here to play big stompy robots, not Multiplier Mind Games.

I do agree that hiding the votes would be the best and simplest fix. Then people will pick what they want to play, instead of derping around.

Voted for Terra Therma today with big multiplier instead for the new map. The rage in the chat was hillarious and I had an awesome game with my King Crab that I'm leveling up. xD
