Hello everyone,

Im really enjoying faction play, but im getting tired of sieges. Siege is stressful.

So why there isnt a pick/votation mode the way it works in quick play?

Siege is over-weighted in the random selector PGI built. As it's exculsive to Invasion mode it is made to come up more often. It's PGI's way of trying to make FW players happier, as pre-patch we could go days without ever seeing Invasion come up....the modes in phase 4 were 100% progressive prior to last patch, where PGI still picked it...but you kinda knew what it would be before you pressed fight and often it never progressed into Siege mode. Which people like me hated

I think FW being more stressful is "working as intended"....some players like more pressure in matches

So im the minority? fine with that. The 25 minutes it usually takes to end a siege seems a lot to me too.

I would really like to play other modes too and not siege 90% of the time.

The high occurrence of siege is due to the slider bar being pushed to the edge (due to one side winning most of the time). At the edge Siege comes up 75% of time....normally it's only 40% of the time


Edit : in the old model, it would come up 100% of the time when the bar got pushed to the edge and 0% before...just for reference sake
