With the recent update it seems you can no longer be a map picker. Maybe I'm missing something?
I tried the mode where it will select a random user map although you can never try to play your own. You can play a private session of course but I don't have that many people on my psn with the game. Although If I did, my friends would just vote the map 5 stars to give it a boose and it wouldn't be what people actually think anyway. That wouldn't be fair..
Is this really how it's going to be now? They did a brief update and extended the time to be able to select a map if you were a map picker. This was great.
The main mode just plays the same maps over and over. I'm done playing the Toy Map. The random mode is fine but there are so many maps that are just crap and people only select the highest rated one anyways. This is very counterintuitive to playing random maps. If it's random you shouldn't have a choice to vote at all.
I want to be able to showcase my map but also be fair. I thought having to wait to be a map picker was fine. I didn't always get to choose my map and it didn't always get voted. But it was an option for players. I just feel now my map will never get played, even if it was previously favorited.
This basically makes it pointless to favorite a map because you can't do anything with it. Again maybe I'm missing something?
My idea if ubisoft actually reads these - is keep random mode but load the maps people have in their favorites or their creations. Maybe give everyone a slot for a favorite map that has the chance to be played.
Anyway, those are my thoughts.
