Sinai, Alamein are good maps, they have variety for actual modern tank on tank combat at somewhat high ranges, and you can also choose to have CQC, city maps like breslau, sweden and rhine just dont fit.
Arctic is horrible because you cannot evade getting sniped from across the entire map whatever you do, there can be someone literally killing themselves just to shoot you from across the map, however you can avoid this in sinai and alamein.
it cannot just be me that this game only has 3-4 good maps that almost never appear (even if i have them liked, the disliked maps appear more)
Dislikes somewhat reduce your probability of seeing a map, Likes are a purely feedback thing, they don’t do anything to the odds of you getting a map.
A better solution rather than hoping that Gaijin cooks another Maginot would be to give us an optional map filter, where instead of picking a limited number of maps where you don’t want to play, you pick maps where you do want to play, and the MM puts you in a match on one of these.
That way, if you don’t like what the majority does, you don’t have to suffer their tastes anyway, and you’ll get longer queues but you’ll get matches you actually enjoy.
People that have no preference, or can’t stand longer queues won’t have to engage with it, and won’t be affected.
but the likelyhood of this getting added is only probable in about a couple years.
so until then i guess i will have to play surroundings of volokolamsk every 2 games
I’d have to get around to making a proper suggestion, Gaijin has no issue with the current system.
Personally I do like Large Volo, but I wish we got a version from another season cause depending on the conditions it can be like staring at a flashbang.
Yeah, lazy game design. Ive pkayed this game for 6 years. I also hope for new maps. Nope, just new stuff to grind. We should all just stop playing to force them to make new maps
gaijin been too busy making the older maps look nicer (which was needed to some extent) to have time to add brand new maps, but we are getting white rock fortress back soon and hopefully after that some new maps
they generally do at least 1 one map or map remake each update
the giant version of those maps arent even that good imo, theres so much driving on flat fields and TOO much flat fields actually, hence why i think the alamein dunes map is the best.
and cargo port is THE cqc map because of the twist it has with the containers, not allowing you to sit behind corners freely
the only way i like those maps is when im in a Scimitar and can flank the entire team at 50mph and pick people off once they have gotten away from their spawns.
A lot of people hate that but i like that you can shoot through containers
