Apparently according to Stona the amount of bans available now is enough to severely affect map selection.

Gaijin hate long queue times. Id ban about 50% of the maps if I could :D

But hey at least the maps you’d see are ones you’d like XD
Assuming as a ballpark that we had 100 different maps then how long would it take to get through all 100 before they rotate?
Could you live with seeing Sweden once or twice in a 12-hour period ?
I understand if every player had the right to a map ban there would an effect on queue times due to matching people and maps and may have an effect on rotation so that is why I am asking, if the map ban went would it enable proper rotation? As jd_hog77 stated it was Stona who said this I think.
Would the player base be directly contributing to making the game better by making a sacrifice. I have premium and I would be willing to do it.
Yeah, Id take a longer queue time to get a decent map everytime
Oh… You dont mean “map rotation” in the classical sense of: “for this period of time you can see only these select maps and the MM will randomly pick from them and then next rotation you’ll see a different set of maps”
and rather a fixed rotation of maps that you cycle through
Map 1 > Map 2 > Map 3 > etc etc etc until you play through them all…
To be honest. Id prefer to keep bans even if that is the case. Because the negative side of that is that you also only see the maps you like just as rarely as you see the maps youd hate

No I mean every map WT has ever done or still has in rotation over however long it takes to get through them all be it 12 hours or 24 or whatever.
This is fine as a statement, and I am not going to shout it down or support it because I made this post. It’s a relevant point.
Do you mind seeing the maps you like 3 times in a row though? No problem with that? Just thinking our favorite maps are somebody else’s most hated and there we have the issue and that is something I am looking to overcome with this.
Many players might say a map is map and the skill lies elsewhere. That may be a different debate possibly.
Sversk-13. Not only is it one of the worst maps in the game, I get it waaaaaayyyyy more often than any other map. About half of my gameplay is spent on that turd of a map.

I would get bored of the same map every single time in a row (though that being said. in ASB where I can pick the map, I do tend to pick the same few maps everytime). But I think it would be more accurate to say that I prefer larger maps, where I can engage in actual, long range hull down fire and those are becoming ever more rare. Most of the maps which are COD style CQB fights, I just dont enjoy. Whilst random MM, with only 1 ban, will mean that I will quite often play maps I dislike. I have just as much of a chance to get one of the few maps I do enjoy.
A rotation system where you just work through every map is an interesting concept. You ensure that you do get to see every map at least once, and no chance of getting a map you hate 3 times in a row (which is unfortuantely common I find). So it really swings at roundabouts.
Though even with a fixed rotation of maps system. A ban would not hurt. as it would just be the same as skipping a map.

Trash map rotation sell premiuns due the exclusive ban / Good map rotation dont sell premiuns.
Thats why the map rotation is destroyed and ignored.
In the last three months i saw
Pradesh only once, i play only up to BR 9.3, is that the reason or something else?
Isn’t specific map selection would be better option like you take as example 3 maps to start searching for the match and you have option for + large versions so it would benefit top tier environment much better. I hate to say but it annoys me when you get some map like vietnam 3 times in a row and its not that suitable for that environment im more like desert map lover so it would add big + from me if it happens. Player base keeps increasing so there is no excuse to put system like this :)
I just want to be able to ban Conquest. That would make me sooooo happy!

I’ve previously suggested a map selection similar to counter strike for example, or perhaps several collections of maps (desert, city, arctic etc.) to pick from when queueing. This way everyone can decide if they want to play more of their favorite maps, or have a shorter queue time.
I want more map ban so i can ban all red zones cuted crap ones and all battle modes.

One map ban isn’t enough . We need more actually . Maps need to be re-designed tbh . A lot of bad maps that cause spawn killings as soon as the match starts .
Like makes no direct difference in selection game-to-game. It’s just a popularity indication, that could affect company decisions on which maps to offer, that’s all. Dislikes also have a cumulative effect that reduce the number of times you see that map.

The whole idea it seems, is to lose the ban and maybe even the like/dislike system and have every map of a strict and proper rotation, all of them ,every map Gaijin have and no repeats, thats what im reading anyway. How would it take to get through every map?
