I played sg4 and breeze for 3 days in a row. I've stopped playing because I don't really enjoy it anymore. There shouldn't be a skip option.

I've played SG4 or breeze everyday this week. This morning was the first time I have played a different map in awhile, which was Solar Frost. I have noticed that Fortress Pyke and Teweran (my personal faves) have come up a lot for voting but have never been chosen because of the people that always vote for SG4 or Breeze. We should switch to a random map picker instead of voting. That would allow everyone to eventually play every map, and get a lot of variety.

Maybe you haven't noticed this, maybe you have, but people tend to leave the games if they know they are going to play a map they don't want. I'm not saying that this is a bad idea, but if it was implemented then you would less populated In-Game servers. I know as an donator that if I don't want to play a map I would just leave, but I don't because there is an aspect of variety needed for this game. This is a competitive game, not just "Ooh, this map looks lovely, lets go play with the roses!". People play this for competitive fun as-well as entertainment, and they should, but if you get a map you don't want to play.. is that fun? :eek:

iv had this same problem reason is people are trying to get the best score so they play the map where they know where all the chest are most of the time this is breeze/sg4 this cause new player to learn where all the chest are and therefore pick that map cause it easy for them and the cycle continues to win on thing is because there so meny people thinking they can win this map actuallys get impossible for the normal player to win and hence why we all hate it that with the fact the ones who know all the chest yelling pick breeze or pick sg4 at the start makes them worse maps to play on

Random voting system or take the maps out for a week so people get a chance to like other maps. People will keep voting breeze and sg4 until they find a map they like better. If we could some how find a good way to force the players to try out the new maps like teweren and fortress Pike (also my favorites) then breeze and Sg4 would have the same play rate as the others. Right when teweren came out, my very smart friend Paul_Kolbeck spec'd the map for about a hour and he crafted a perfect chest route that I have used ever scince. Complaining won't teach people to like other maps, encouragement or a system that forces them to try new maps will. I learnt my chest route for fortress pike just a few weeks ago. I had never played it, but when it finally got voted, I found a great route. It is now my favorite map and I'd always pick it over breeze or sg4. At first I didn't want to play it, but once I did, it was a great map. I hope the people that vote breeze and sg4 get the chance to discover and appreciate the great maps made by the community. And maybe soon everyone will think twice before going all "vote sg4", which seems to have become a instinct for most players when these maps show up.

I don't win every time on those maps because everyone goes on the same chest routes on those maps..

Do you have a chest route for those maps? If you do then go for it! If you don't these are perfect opportunities for you to think about one, what if these are your last time playing on these ever (Exaggeration)! If your chest route interferes with others chest routes then maybe consider fixing when you go for those chests, or maybe not even go for them at all. Though it may be tedious playing the same map can help you increase your chances of winning on that map. No matter what map is played it will always be a competition for a chests, as it is the luck of the draw. Sometimes you have good games, sometimes not so much no matter what it is just a game. If your new to a map take it easy and explore, don't rush up to people smacking them with your fists when neither of you have anything (this does not help you, nor them in anyway). If the map it mountainous like Breeze Island, you can always go for the sneak attack pushing them off the mountain. :)
