I don't really think PGI is good with level design compared to some games I also play. But nonetheless I am happy with this map. Its a much needed change. Its a brawling map that's hard for LRMers, not too hot, not too cold. And visually interesting. PGI has improved on their map making since the beginning, but they are still a little tied into choke points. I don't really care about the event, my purpose and my goals are always personal, as I seek to test and refine new builds.

I like this map because it favors thoughtful play not boiler plate strategy. LRMs and Guass have limited use here.

The sad part for me is that while Solaris City is my favorite map now, ever since the challenge started, I haven't even had it come up as an option. I think I played it 6-7 times in the first couple days after it came out (1 of every 3-4 matches). Since the challenge started I've played 12-13 matches and it wasn't _ever_ a choice during the selection process.

Disappointing.

Events are for suckers. Play the game the way you want to play it and screw PGI's stupid events. You're killing your own fun for PGI's table scraps. The rewards aren't that good. Just play like normal.

But you missed my first sentence. Solaris City is my favorite map. I love how it plays, event be damned. Yet even during an event focused on that map, I don't get the opportunity. Sad.

I finished the event and keep voting for solaris city, but whenever HPG comes up, that wins the vote instead.

My biggest problem appears to be getting that one loss on this map. </humblebrag> I really want that roll of duct tape.Posted Image

I can think of ways to solve this problem, but I try hard to not go there...

I really, really like this map. I hope they can improve the FPS.

Four hours of continuous play and I've had 2 Solaris City maps. Hard for us with limited time to complete challenges this way.

Burning up my play time night being frustrated.
