That is due to the playerbase. Bulk of the players only want to play certain AAS maps or insurgency. Therefore most servers will only run "populistic" maps in fear of losing a bunch of players if they pick more special map. This problem didn't exist few years ago, it's down to the new and more casual playerbase.Tenke420 wrote:Out of all the maps we have, we basically always only play 5-7 of them?
We need more maps and people to open up to more variety for game play.
Most balanced maps in the pool aren't they? Both infantry and vehicle action. Very well put together, having detailed surroundings.viirusiiseli wrote:PR server map rotation for a day 101:

-Muttrah AAS
-Saaremaa AAS
-Khamisiyah AAS
-Gaza INS
If 3/5 of these maps isn't played daily on a server, it's a dead server.

Khamisiyah and Saaremaa, sometimes Gaza and Muttrah too can be very unbalanced. Granted, EU servers currently struggle with balance extremely often. Though Yablochko has these same problems but even more pronounced, like Russian servers always have in PR. With extremely light rules, even bigger player skill variance than EU or USA, trolls or no mic players, and very little teamwork. These issues might affect the stats you brought up.assetruler69 wrote:Most balanced maps in the pool aren't they? Both infantry and vehicle action.

[RU] Green Yablochko server. Last three days:

muh same maps
muh admins
muh playerbase
True, but I don't see it happening nor have I've seen it happen throughout the years. The most sad and pathetic truth is most players rather stay on the steamrolling winning side rather try to do something. It's not solely limited to PR, it's in every other multiplayer teamwork oriented game I've played. Only strong rules and nearly blind implementation could change something and in the same time piss off the general (idiot) population.viirusiiseli wrote: The real answer to solve this is to work hard on team balance after a major loss while considering the players, situation, and circumstances instead of taking the comfy shortcut of setting the same maps every time.
Did PRTA get rid of steamrolling? Nope. They did not(but they've managed to get rid of playerbase). Are HOG rules considered "strong"? I've been there yesterday and witnessed 500-0(or something like that) Dovre steamroll, before that somewhat similar happened on Burning sands.Mouthpiece wrote:True, but I don't see it happening nor have I've seen it happen throughout the years.

They can be unbalanced indeed, but "sometimes" is okay enough for me. Yeah, I understand that it's not the reason to get rid of "unbalanced" maps but they can be rolled only once per evening or shit will hit the fan.viirusiiseli wrote:Khamisiyah and Saaremaa, sometimes Gaza and Muttrah too can be very unbalanced.
