The filter is completely inadequate for blocking a specific mode. Even after reaching the limit on map selections in the filter, I still get matched into Conquest mode filled with campers, which is awful. Please provide us with a mode selection preference option instead of the current single-map-based one.

Yeah, I feel like I wasted some of my dear few points in disliking all the multiple conquest modes there are. Albeit a few exceptions where conquest is good but other times it’s a chore. For me I have to decide between not getting Gavutu at all or not playing Conquest in the Pacific. Currently I can’t do neither as there’s so many maps in the Pacific I have to dislike.

Conquest large is even worse as every match there feels like alligator creek.

To make worse.
Weekends are when conquest mode spam happens.

There should be an option of each player to block a mode they dislike. I don’t mind conquest, but I absolutely HATE ASSAULT with a passion, and many times just feel like deserting when I see it come up. So, if they could give each player the option to block ONE mode, that would be great.

I mean - those votes aren’t even blocks to begin with, just yesterday I played two matches in a row from maps that I voted against.
The devs should either give like 5 total bans, or give more votes in general considering that you can still be matched in disliked ganemodes/maps.

No let us block as many gamemodes as desired, at minimum two, maybe a preference system similar to Australian voting.
For myself - ban Conquest and Confrontation.
By preference:
Ban Confrontation 1.
Ban Conquest 2.
Assault okay I guess.
Invasion most preferable.
We also desperately need more ban options. Limiting the number of bans is wrong, if they want people to stop deserting then stop forcing us to play maps and gamemodes that arent fun and we hate.
Limiting all maps of a certain gamemode would help, eg ban all Confrontations and Conquests for myself and then I could go through and ban specific maps that are just bad like Khalif caves or Steel Mill.

Another huge issue I found is that I still end up on disliked maps/gamemodes so what was even the point of this?
I disliked the map because I hate it.
The match making finds me a battle in 1 or 1 and a half minutes so it clearly still only assigns me to the first battle.
Im willing to wait for another map!

Same, yesterday I played 3 games and 2 of the maps I ended up getting were maps I downvoted.
But apparently this system is just a fancy UI with no effect on the algorithm. Just some placebo effect so that the devs can argue that they listened to community requests.
sad part is that it could actually have algorithm and still give disliked maps cause of likes. e.g. if one map has 15 likes and 5 dislikes, result is that it has 10 positive votes.
likes only make sense if you first eliminate most disliked maps before proceeding to choose liked maps and idk how they configured their algorithm(i guess with like-dislike difference).
As many options as we can get would be desirable throughout the entire game as it would give players more control over their entire game experience. I think at this point it is important for players, especially the ones who have financially supported this game over the years to get more vocal about our desires. The more we push the Dev’s, hopefully the more they will be flexible.
