Can we get a map type selector?

Yeah, can we? I’m sick of playing conquest maps. Right now i’m just sitting here and clicking “exit battle”, hoping that the next map will be invasion or assault. Conquest type maps are IMO just plain deathmatch, and it’s boring to play only that. If this can’t be done right now e.g. because of low playerbase, maybe it’s a thing to consider further in development?

I think, like you said, the playerbase right now is too small to let people choose the game type.

The already small number of players is further divided between 2 different campaigns and 3 different servers, not to mention that some people, like me, only play one faction, which can lead to there being enough players on one side but not enough on the other side.

But after release I think it could work to implement a game type selection in the menu, as well as have a “random” option that would basically work the way it already does now, choosing from all available modes.
And in order to avoid potential problems, like some game modes never being played at all, I’d suggest having higher exp rewards granted to those that queue up in a game with the “random” option.

Well, other solution would be to balance ratio of maps in rotation, cause today i was getting 5x conquest, then single invasion, another 5 or 6 conquest maps which i didn’t play cause i left at the beginning and then again single invasion to finish playing for today. Haven’t played for a while, but i remember this was also the case with “battle for moscow” campaign. Lots of conquer maps which IMO are simply braindead deathmatches and less asymetric gamemodes, which for me are way more entertaining.

Conquest is painfully common tbh.
Getting invasion is rare and getting assault is a myth that I was not lucky enough to experience after pouring hours into playing.
Everything gets auto swamped by generic domination.

The order of maps always remain the same. After an invasion game, you get 3 different conquest maps each that host about 3 games. After which you’ll get the next invasion map. And then the rest of conquest maps and then invasion(which will host 3 games before moving to the next map). Then the cycle repeats.

This number of games per map might not be correct. But you get the gist of it.

I don’t really care for choosing which map, but I do expect a game mode selector soon. I’m not playing Conquest forever, it’s a shitty game mode with little payout.

This is major issue with Warthunder probably the most important feature to be implemented in this game is too have an option for each player to vote on the end of the match how much he/she enjoyed this map.

Then you have a personal map preference list and the game would try to create a game with a map and mode that most people enjoyed.
