Four maps to vote on, but if one of those is Crimson, HPG, or Mining Colony, It's obvious which it will be.

Being able to downvote one map that you absolutely don't want to play, that'd be nice. I might even be able to start seeing some maps like Forest Colony again, god forbid.

There are "seasonal" tides of course. If a map is included in an event or has been ovehauled big time, PGI admits that its more often proposed to vote for than "usual". Makes sense and in the case of Terra it nails it. While Terra felt like the Leper Colony before, it's now a No. 1 destination because verybody needs the Event points. If I recall it correctly I have probably played more Terra withing the last few days than I have had this map (or at least its predecessor) in a year.

Totally agree on HPG and Mining. Although I rather love to play compact and close-up maps like those two even the most desired things get stale when you have them, like, all the time. Another candidate is Canyon but I reckon that started with the Championship when everybody seemed to want to play Conquest on that one.

Can't agree so much on Crimson though. This is a map that is more seasonal, it comes and goes. At the Moment I play on it a little less than usual while I got it a lot when they pimped the visual style not so long ago and it was proposed more often in map vote.

To quote myself in a different topic regarding maps:

I'd like to see the old terra therma back with a new name and maybe and updated layout ,but essentially the old map

Same goes for Frozen. Maybe it would be nice to have 2 Alternate Versions of Maps that have overhaul versions. You would vote for Therma or Frozen but would not know what version you would get. The old Versions weren't all bad. I liked the older Frozen actually way better than the new one. I'd like to see a larger HPG or Mining as alternates to the existing ones.

I second the posts in here demanding a little more map work (overhaul, diversity, CW/FP etc.).

Absolutely yes. Cannot remember when I last played Alpine, and that is my favourite map! Seems like we have only 3-4 maps at all, and others might as well be deleted from the game and no-one would even notice.

This would accomplish the exact opposite and make the rare maps even rarer.
