    Bring back map pick

    Why would ubisoft destroy there own game? Do they have to much money? Or just stupid. They should be adding feature not taking them away we dont want to play your feature maps we want to see creative community maps.

    The problem with letting people pick maps is that 99% of them are picking the same maps over and over and over and over. Even when it's your turn to pick a map, there's no guarantee that if you choose one of your own published maps, that people won't vote Shovel Dodgers over it.

    They've confirmed they're working on a lobby browser. Hopefully this will be combined with improvements to private lobbies, making it easier for people to find and join.

    The state that the Lobby is now..........

    The only map being played is Nuketown multiple versions, because it has been stolen so many times on ( PS4 )

    I Wonder if Ubisoft is aware of this.......

    Must not mean single player maps which is all I do. Because there I can still choose.

    I had a positive experience playing last weekend, havent played this update yet..will do later!

    Though something i noticed last weekend, was people werent picking maps. Like only one of the three chosen actually picked a map. The other two just let the timer run down till the end. This happened multiple times.
    Then obviously those picks turned into featured picks. Surely there's enough time to choose a map now?

    Well UBISOFT should of looked at the coding of the server browser of the old FAR CRY 2 lobbies. Or called up some of the old UBISOFT dev's that made them sexy lobbies and gave them a cut of the pie and gave us FAR CRY 2 lobbies for FAR CRY 5. Instead of wasting time and tainting the community. Now they made is worse and better at the same time. Public you cant play your own maps. Private ya might be able to but need active people and a password. Public its just a bunch of new maps picked. Still a double edge sword UBISOFT. Even though a poster other day said you cant pick your own maps either in private. Unless they were joking?
