Every bloody time i want to play a match with Japan at BR 2 i always get put in Heilongjiang. Im tired of Manchuria, im tired of soviets, why every single damnable japanase match must be in this shithole. Sorry for this rant, but i really need it. I want to play Japan, i want to fight among the beaches and the jungles but no, always the same, single, absolutely terribly made map. Did you know that the game has a map in Burma? Would be really nice playng this map instead of having to deal every single match against sweaty soviets.

Manchuria is total chaos, especially at BR3 and even worse when uptiered against BR4. Burma is practically the same map, but attacking and advancing along the river channels is fun. In fact, I’ve seen more Allied vs. German matches in Normandy than in Pacific; it’s the same with Japan three or four out of every five matches take place in Heilongjiang rather than in the tropics.

I don’t want to sound like a conspiracy theorist, but I wonder if it’s premeditated like, to motivate Chinese players to play, or something like that? Because the matchmaking is very random in the tiers, but not in the maps

…I think you are onto something here.

True, Burma has a single map like Manchuria, but it’s a map that if im lucky i find one in a thousand matches. Manchuria instead is a single map that i get nine out of ten matches and i’ve become extremely tired of playng the same single map over and over on repeat especially since i find it both ugly and poorly made. The thing that irritate me the most is that i put the red thumb down in the Manchuria map, but the matches type are four while you can only give three so i keep getting the one without thumb over and over on repeat. A thing that it’s even more irritating since ive put every single pacific front invasion map with a green thumb meaning that i want to play that maps and yet they never happen. Now that i think of it it’s also the same with the allies and the axis, i’ve put almost every Tunisia map on green thumbs and yet i get all maps except those.

A terrible map that, due to the lack of variety (or outright scarcity) of maps for the Soviet-Japanese front, has become the one that appears most frequently for these two factions. Literally 50 percent of their battles take place here. I always quit matches on this map, whether I’m playing as the Soviets or the Japanese. This game almost stopped being enjoyable a long time ago, and now it keeps dumping me into this shit hole. I fkn hate this map.

Soviets suffer hard with bad equipment and weak KV1 and ultra slow KV2… I dont want start talking about body armor, NuketuberRMN50 or 6x100kg bombs from BR2 Airplane…

The production team should lower the matching priority of these new maps to be the same as that of other maps. For example, the Heilongjiang in the Soviet Union, and the New Normandy in the United States. Although I understand that the production team wants to let players see more of their efforts, encountering the same map frequently is quite boring.

Getting constantly stuck in matches I hate the maps or hated the game mode is why I switched to playing almost entirely in custom matches. I always play the map I want and the game mode I want. Plus, if I want to quit, lose internet, lose network connection or lose power I don’t get penalized for desertion. 
On the contrary, I’m ready to play on Harbin constantly and never end up on the Pacific maps.
