Check out the picture (sorry about the low quality had to lower it to meet size requirements) I took of a game I played the other day. Is anyone else getting really bored with this game after the recent patch? It seems like you get the same maps over and over again with the same modes and mass arty. Really boring. There are maps I litterally haven't played in months, they keep making new maps and new modes and each patch they prioritise the new content in the match making so we don't even see the maps we enjoyed anymore. If you see this wargaming listen to the fans of the game.

I agree I think you should be able to select which types you want to play. I really dislike assault. Both sides of it as well. Plus I really like some of the older maps.

Maybe a gears of war style vote over three maps and game types at the beginning? That would give valuable feedback to the Devs over which maps people at enjoying as well.

Totally agree that sounds good I don't know why they don't ask us about things like this before patching. Obviously though they would need to put at least one less popular map in each pack to keep it balanced. Or otherwise it would just be german tanks dominating city maps :D

Even just a call of duty vote system where a map + mode comes up and people can vote to skip to a new map. This way they can modify maps which are always skipped to make them more popular.

WG just didn't really do it properly, they converted some maps for the new game-modes, but few are actually fitting... if they really want to implement such game modes, they'd have to make some new maps from scratch, because now we have 50% chance of standard, 25% encounter and 25% attack. but because there are only a few maps for the new game modes, you get those over and over and over again in between the normal battles on different maps
this makes it sooo extremely boring (not to mention annoying) every time you see sand river or phrokorovka AGAIN... having a normal battle on these maps seems like an event worthy of getting a screeny of, just to prove it still exists -.-

Well...I must say I'm getting bored of Prhovokva assult (both sides).

I like encounter.

I just can't stand assault  anymore (watever the side or map)

Encounter - good.
Assault - shit.

I seem to be getting assault at least 50% of the time, and I am really starting to hate it now. It might help it wasn't always the same three bloody maps every time.

Why did they choose to use Prokhorovka for assault over some of the other maps? Why not Lakeville or Abbey or Fisherman's Bay?

Why didn't they just make new ones.

Assault is ok if you have the tank and frame of mind to play it. Like its ok if you have binos etc to help push and scout. The fact is it gets forced upon you. Why not just let the player select what gametype they want? Or vote to skip? Judging by this thread I think there would be a surprisingly large amount of assaults skipped.

I really like Encounter. They got that right. It just annoys me they have awesome maps like serene coast etc and we get put at the bottom of a hill with some trees on it and told ten minutes to get to the top where the other team is camping. Maybe it'll get sorted next patch.

Simple fix. Drop down box, select game type you want to play. JOb Done.

Well i like both assault and encounter, but i`m always ending up in the attacking team (75%) and thats not that fun!  but a better variety of maps and a button to click if u want encounter or not would be great !

Although I agree to players being able to chose which maps they play, i don't fully support your idea or everyone would be selleting the same maps and map rotation would just go to hell. Idealisticly, players should be allowed to pick maybe half a dozen maps that they DON'T want to play and those maps will always stay off rotation for them... they should also be able to change at any times what maps they don't want to play. For example, let's say I'm playing arty. i'll remove the closed maps. Say i'm on a T95, i'm going to remove maps that are too big or with good chances that I hae to go up hills. i'm playing a e75 or any other normal tank... I'll just remove maps I don't like or that I find unbalanced. By implementing this not only the MM gets improved but WG will get a clear view of which maps they should get rid of or at least certain maps on certain game modes.

Awesome topic!
New game mods will be driving me crazy. Especially 'assault' mode will kill... I'm doin about 50-60 battles in a day and i feel all battles in same map. I guess standart battle mod has been removed from game. Some maps are really rare, to make a long story short, random battles are not random anymore.

I agree.. The current rotation CANNOT be random, but rather some system with weights.

And damn you WG for removing Komarin!

10 battles, 5x Widepark...gg randomness.

Wait wait wait. You are saying there are actually more than two maps with assault mode? I play only Malinovka and Prokhorovka as assault. Oh I just remembered there's even Karelia as assault.

Its all the maps we had got bored of...

i must be insane because all i ever hear about is how bad assault is - but i really like it!  even when sods law dictates that I have to defend the assault in a 13-75 and attack it in a Proto.

I can't be the only person on this game that likes Assault mode Shirley?

I think its ok. Its the fact that its forced upon me. If I knew I was going into assault I would perhaps take different gear (like binos etc) and even different tanks. Its an easy fix just make mm selective.
