Push/KOTH Maps Taking Over

Anyone else feel like they’re being forced to play a stupid amount of KOTH/Push Maps? Feels like I barely play any other maps currently and its getting so boring! at this point im happy for them to bring back 2CP into QP que so i can avoid those 2 modes for a little bit longer.

I will say KOTH shows up the most. Showing a bias. Which was already visible. With them not removing a KOTH map. And only Payload maps have been out of rotation. Especially with a new Payload map. Which HARDLY ever shows up. Do they expect people to play Shambali in arcade with no RQ option?

The absolute worst possible map types. Just let us choose what kind of maps to play on already.

That will just hurt the dev’s egos.

That didn’t stop them from removing Paris and such but at least you only have to lose once there instead of wasting your time losing twice on control maps.

They originally forced people to keep playing on them. Only when everyone collectively left those maps. Did they remove them.

Oh but constantly backfilling into 0-1 control map games is totally okay right?

Leave yourself. Not our fault they make garbage maps.

I’d love to but Blizzard has to stop the leaver XP punishment first.

I don’t care about that stuff. So it doesn’t matter for me.

Would be nice if they could add a map or map type request feature. No guarantees, but increasing your chance of getting a map type.

But don’t see anything like this popping up anytime soon. Game has a lot of other things to address first.

I do.

I’m VERY tired of KoTH maps. They have the most number of maps atm and I find myself barely playing any hybrid or payload maps.

It’s just the same 3 push maps (dear God rebalance Queen’s Street and Colosseo) and for the love of God I am sick of Lijiang Tower and Ilios.

Esperanca is awful as well. I know they all feel like a long walk from spawn but DAMN does esperanca feel the worse.

Though I dislike entire gamemode tbh. Too much walking. Too hard to bounce back after 1 team gains the 1st checkpoint over the other.

In quick play, it does, because after every round half of the losing team leaves, making it very likely to backfill

Are you using the back alleys on Esperanca? Because of the maps roughly triangular shape, it is much quicker to use the back alleys to get to the other side of the map. If you use these, it’s one of the shorter walk backs from spawn.

Highly recommend exploring this map in a custom game. There’s a lot of short cuts that aren’t obvious.

The only other option is payload/payload but you have to stand in a square for a few seconds first.

Yes, it still feels like a slog to walk through.

Well, you should get 1of those 2 modes 50% if your games.
