Abandoned Factory

Is there any information about why the “Abandoned Factory” map has not appeared in the game since May 20th?

The matchmaker just cycles through maps, not for any special reason most of the time it just does that

The matchmaking distribution system is working as intended.

And what is the intended way?

Would be funny to know because there exists no official statement in regards to that. So your claim is simply impossible to prove.

And don`t come with super simplistic stuff. I am talking hard numbers and code. Not “gets players into matches, changes maps from time to time” and so on.

Essentially all we know has a hard fact is:

  1. Matches are between vehicles of max 1BR higher than the lowest BR in a given match (which is the case for 99.999% of matches maybe a bit more)
  2. No more than 8 vehicles of the highest possible BR of a match will be in a given match, the highest possible BR is not necessarily the highest BR in the match (e.g. a match between 5.0 to 5.7 or 0.7MM will not have that limit on the 5.7 vehiclesas the max BR for the match would be 6.0 even if 0 6.0 vehicles are in the match)
  3. Matches are between 6 and x (depending on mode) players (bots are players in this calculation, at least for naval)

Those are the confirmed hardcoded rules we know of. Everything else is speculation and guessing from cryptic statements or less.

So we have no ability to make any statements in regards to how the MM is actually supposed to work when choosing a map, game mode, BR for a match (maybe it actually does look at your past matches, maybe it does not, who knows) or anything else.

Hence why we can only really point out when the MM effs up one of the 3 points above.

For comparrison, in Wot there are tools which allow you to predict your next match, including map, mode, composition of teams and Tier with nearly 100% accuracy(note that does not say that you will know the exact map and so on, it can give you a list of maps as well as a list of the other stuff). This is only possible because the exact rules of the MM are known.

Not saying we need that in WT as such percise MM causes the issue of making the game feel “stale”, just saying that we essentially know nothing about how the MM works outside of the general principle of how a MM is supposed to be working.

Or in other words.

Stop lying when it is so easy to show.

Dude, imagine dropping 15 minutes of your life to dedicate all that to a joke about how the matchmaking system is vad

it’s still in rotation, especially in the 7.7-10.0 area

Im playing between 5.0 to 7.7 and dont seen this map since one week ago or more.

Map was in battle a lot on May 28th…not sure if it was down for some maintenance…but working normally now…
Maps go down frequently for a few days without prior warning…was always like this…when maintenance is “short” there is no warning…i guess we have enough maps that most players don’t even notice…
