There's no mention on how long the map rotations would be. Is it until the next patch? Ideally, Erangel and Miramar is permanent and the two others are switched out daily, or maybe even every two hours, like something that Apex does.

Hey Grotlo, we have a map rotation plan coming out soon that will provide more details!

As in, 'Uncheck the maps you don't want to play right now'

Sometimes i just can't stand sanhok, you know?

And just now I've left and rejoined 3 different sanhok lobbbies in a row (rare to get 3 in a row I know) before getting a map I didn't hate. There has to be a better way than this:

  • Match ends. Died horribly.
  • Drop into Sanhok lobby. Sigh. 45 players. Wait until timer starts. Leave
  • Drop into another Sanhok lobby. FS. 68 players. Wait until timer starts. Leave
  • Drop into 3rd Sanhok lobby. Leave straight away. Am then dropped right back into what I assume is the same lobby but with 10 more players. Wait until timer starts, leave.
  • Think about giving up and going to play something fun. Click join one last time.
  • Karakin, fine. Will play.

Whole process took 13 mins. It's not great. EU. 2100GMT

Like I say. Sometimes a man just can't face Sanhok. Don't make it so hard eh?

Hey, I know it's frustrating. Life was good when the map selection was there. But the amount of queues it creates is simply not sustainable. Adding map deselect options would just do the same on the backend. Deselecting certain maps would have to put you in special queues where you'd have to wait for people with same preferences which is essentially an inverse map select system, albeit not as big as map selection. If an opportunity arises to make changes and improvements to the current system I am sure the teams will explore them.
