Well I completed the event last night and didn't even know it was on until afterwards. I really like this map and had it in the rotation alot. Remember this map is new and they have already said they plan to tune it so be patient. I would rather see them get it right vice a lot of changes that make it worse.

Is there a chance to see the Solaris City map in your Solaris City map challenge?

Layout is very interesting, still don't like the map visually. Also - maybe due to the performance - I seem to be getting a headache when playing the map for longer.

Since the "balance" of forces right now is "each side gets the same amount of lights, mediums, heavys and assaults", we really need an option to swap mechs AFTER map and mode has been fixed. Maps like Solaris make this more obvious than ever before that this should get a high priority to be added.

PGI, add an extra event called "I didn't get to play Solaris city" with awards for three straight matches, five straight matches and so forth...

I think the fact they gave us 12 days to do it means they ain’t bumping frequency in the rotation. “Just keep playin’ kids” ~PGI

*Obligatory complaining post*
Solaris City finally appears as an option (after 8 or 9 rounds without it)... and everyone picks a different map!
Not unusual for these kind of events but still discouraging. Posted Image
HOPEFULLY, the map appears enough times to complete this.

With an event like this putting the map in the voting cycle more than 1 in 24 would make many happier.

It would´nt populate the queues for as long.
I can only guess, but 64-bit switch and Battletech must have inflicted a hit.

Been playing all day,this map hasn't showed up once. I doubt it's even in rotation anymore. Yesterday it was showing up like every 2 games. Have it your way PGI, i give up. I don't like being laughed at, which is what you're doing right now, laughing at everyone who's playing battle after battle just to get the chance to get free stuff. See ya.

So what gives? They added the map on patch day and it was up every match. Now they have an event for it and I've now played 15 matchs in a row and not seen it once lol.

This happens every time there is an map specific event.

PGI doesn't seem to learn, RANDOM is not a fun challenge.

There needs to be a way to opt 100% into the map. No other solution is good enough.

While I don't play much lately, I am definitely not playing this event...

Nine times in a row Solaris City has not even shown up in the map selection screen. It's late. I just wanted to participate in the event after a hard day. I'm disappointed.

MEME:

So it's heafty map in the cry-engine (with PGI-skillz)
And no incursion or escort on it in the design :/

Map hasn't come up one in the last hour.

Lower all the skyscrapers and lower the ceiling for better performance.

Duct Tape is a cocpit hanging, not standing item....

Solutions for choice of the map is simple, just introduce Solaris style map voting-out.
And un-randomize map rotation.
