Enlisted needs to vary the maps more

Since the last major update, map rotation has been non-existent, always using the same two maps, and depending on which faction you choose to play, 80% of the time you will enter the same map and the same game mode, currently I am playing with the American faction, and I no longer want to play on the bulge map, out of every 10 matches 7 or 8 are on that map, and sometimes the same game mode consecutively

For me, I like the battle of the bulge, but much prefer it as an INVASION map. I really wish it would stop with the CONQUEST overall.

Similarly, D-Day is almost non-existent from what I have seen. Only once in the last week or so.

On top of that, I REALLY wish they would allow high tier on Moscow, outside of just custom games. I’m getting sick and tired of Berlin and Stalingrad. The countryside maps are ok, but there definitely are not enough of them.

I do not want that. I would rather have different non urban campaign for high BR queue soviets. And Stalingrad should be moved only to BR 1-3 matches.

I haven’t gotten Tunisia in a really long while, which is a shame, because I really like some of the maps and would like my Italian equipment to have a proper home. Just looking at the past 100 replays this is the frequency of each campaign:

Pacific - 26%
Moscow - 25%
Normandy - 23%
Stalingrad - 10%
Tunisia - 8%
Berlin - 8%

It is understandable that some are more frequent due to the matchmaking of certain factions and battle ratings. Tunisia and Berlin could be made more frequent by limiting Normandy to BR 4-5 and Stalingrad to BR 1-3.

Redone with a sample size of 1000 for greater accuracy:
Pacific - 28.7%
Normandy - 28.2%
Moscow - 19%
Tunisia - 8.3%
Stalingrad - 8.1%
Berlin - 7.7%

I dislike it because you get sniped by bots through bushes. And the maps have little to none hard cover making it a heaven for tankers and pilots. I also just get it way too often, rarely in conquest though.

We seem to live in parallel universes: I’ve been getting D-day with Germans attacking quite often. :joy:

Yep.
I played quite a lot BR3 axis so in theory I had the biggest map variety. In theory, in practice I got stalingrad 40% of the time even though it has the least maps of all campaigns except for ardenes.

I believe that this is due to the low number of players, matchmaking takes some players from low and high BR and then Stalingrad becomes the common ground.

No, it’s because Stalingrad/battle of the bulge/Normandy are maps that are in all BR queues. So they should have basically the double chance than Tunisia/berlin.

That’s why I think it’s not good to have same maps in both queues. Soviets desperately needs new high BR map, Stalingrad needs to be limited to low br queue. And Normandy/battle of the bulge should be limited to high br queue again.

and why do you think they’re in all BR queues? to meet the common ground because of lack of players, which is pretty much what i’ve said

more players first
then more maps and separate them for according BR.

Most of the enlisted problems can be solved in this way: more players.

Doesn’t make sense. You can’t have matches made of both queues unless it’s bugged.

It seems that you’re right and i did an oopsie

It’s funny how some people are tired of Ardennes/Bulge/Hurtgen (also I’m still confused - DF made 1 map for different battles from different time periods?).
And yet I just want to play that map and never get it.
When I take high BR Germany I’m sent to Stalingrad – instant quit, I refuse.
When I take BR3 USA I’m sent to Steel Mill and Swamps Conquest and Gare Saint Lo and other BS I don’t want.

I wonder why they can’t make every game mode for every new map. The new campaign is just invasion and conquest, what would definitely be refreshing to these maps are the different game modes already available. I really, really want to play confrontation on this map and yet I can’t.

considering that bulge is rather limited with maps i seem to be getting it most often when playing US. that and reverse d-day which is horrible map. they put heavy rng on new maps and this is tiring… ffs i want more pure normandy maps and not bulge maps… and less stalingrad when playing germany/soviets. and less defense as germans.

Personally I am not. Tbh, I don’t have any problems with maps MM.
I recently haven’t played BR2 very often, so Tunisia and Moscow are out. But I definitely do get all other maps in very similar quantity.

The problem I have is that scenarios for specific maps are always the same recently.

Day D - it’s always just germans pushing US back to beach.
Stalingrad - in 90% cases it’s always Soviets defending railway station in assault mode
Battle of the bulge - in 70% cases it’s just conquests (which I surprisingly like on this map, but still annoying this scenario is so common).
Berlin - in 80% its either germeny defending opera or the ministry building behind the bridge.

I definitely do acknowledge way bigger issues in scenario desperaty than in map MM itself.
I literally dont even remember last time the US were attacking on d day.

my example,japan is most of time defending

I could agree on that. As long as there are some wider expanses to work with. I’m getting REALLY tired of alleyways and CQB areas.

This is something they need to address with the AI more than the maps necessarily.

I greatly disagree. There are strong trench positions and bunkers built into the map.

Additionally, it counts as Normandy, so the shovel’s trenching depth is the deepest of any campaign. This means that foxholes and trenches that you manually dig are actually quite effective. (If you make them wide enough.)

Are you on PC or Console?

Bunkers only exist at like 1-2 zones and the trenches are straight lines. 90% of the map is grass and bush. Zones 4 and 5 in the village of Dominant Heights are really good though.

If you have time to dig, you’ve already won the game.
