Default Please Rotate the Maps better.!!!!

Right, who says they have had enough of Ancestral and Grenz???

I no longer play Alliance Battles because every day at the same time i have the same RED ENGINE GORED ENGINE GORED ENGINE GORED ENGINE GOing AB map!

I originally became luxon because i like the maps that we have such as the Keys, etc etc. But this RED ENGINE GORED ENGINE GORED ENGINE GORED ENGINE GOing sucks!!! Can we please have an update so that the AB maps rotate by a different time scale so that when we play GW's at the same time every day, we don;t always get the same map???

its not done by rotation, its done by ammounts of wins from both sides. as luxon win more, they push the border into kurz side therefore kurz maps and visa versa

This has been suggested time after time. The maps are based on which side wins/loses more.

You want a map change? If you're a lux, suck more, if you're a kurz, suck less.

Yes, it's dependant on whichever side is winning or losing. I agree that it is boring playing the same two maps over and over again. By the way, I was playing on Etnaran Keys and won. It then sent my party to Grenz Frontier. Can the map change skip another map or is this a bug?

This is very true and I've thought about how it could be changed, but nothing is really very viable.

If you changed it to rotate between the maps automatically, people would just play when it was their own map.

I play luxon, and tbh, it's not that hard to win in grenz or lands if you're team knows what it's doing.

So you skipped Saltspray entirely?

ON-topic: NOT THIS AGAIN. You might have won your 12vs12 but it certainly wasn't the only one being fought at the moment.

Kurzicks should just man the **** up and stop using those horrid Tab-Accept teams.

I do miss the good ole' days when the map seemed to rotate after every 2 battles
you could fight at every map in 1 day.

but, now becuz of people being heavily dependant on using wiki-builds (and the luxons apparently read the build usage description instead of just copying build) you hardly ever leave kurzick territory

I 100% agree on this. I am so sick of playing at Kurzick areas... that I quit AB. Hopefully they will change it to rotation of every 1-2 days.

I'd love to play on the Luxon side Alliance Battle maps as much as the next person, but as already stated: they won't change unless Kurzicks actually win enough.

Basically: since Kurzicks suck, the map won't change.

(Or you could look at the glass half-full: since the Luxons are so good, the map won't change. Either way, reason enough to hate both sides now.)

Lets talk about Saltspray. It is the only truly neutral map. Due to the map changing conditions, Saltspray will never be played for more than one rotation.

This is a problem.

Technically no :P

The Kurzick base is slightly closer to the points than the Luxon base is.

Even so I wish it was up for longer 1 rotation sucks because its the best map
