Look, if you are going to have a map as part of an event you have to make the map at least show up in the map selection every time. I have gone 5 games in a row and didn't even have it as an option. Not all of us have 8 hours a day to sink into video games...

It took me 2 marathon days of game play to get this Challenge completed. This map does not come up too often.

Hi there... I may have finished the "Solaris City Quick Play Event" within its' early hours, but I think the Map Frequency should be increased on Map-Specific Events. Other people won't always be as lucky as me, and I also won't always get this lucky.

Had the same problem but after I finished, it appears every 2nd game.

Has not been the case for me. Back when I finished during the early hours of the Event, it was plentiful then. But since that, it's gotten more and more distant for me, which makes it hard to actually gain experience about how the map can be played. PGI definitely needs to turn up the Frequency during Map-Specific Events.

I so wish, that another challenge like this would happen soon.

If another Map-Specific Event does happen, the Map Frequency needs to be increased severely for any Map that has to be played on for the Map-Specific Event. It is simply wrong to ask people to play on a particular Map, and then not make it reasonably possible to reach it with some semi-regularity. Frankly, I hate to think of all the people who are going to fail the "Solaris City Quick Play Map Challenge" simply because its' frequency was NOT increased (at least as far as I know... I tried to contact Matt Newman directly about the issue, but never heard back). There were people actively voting away from the 'Solaris City' Map because they didn't like it and/or weren't trying to do the Event (one of which I was not), so chances to play were being stolen from those who were honestly trying to finish that Event Challenge Set.

True if and when we have a map based challenge the map or maps involved need to be increased in frequency or those not involved decreased. I suggest using all of the urban maps next time
