Hey, I don’t know if the comuntity will agree with me, but I would just like to ask you (343) if it would be possible to turn down the frequency that Exile and Ragnarok appear as a voting option in Big Team Infinity Slayer. Don’t get me wrong, I really like Exile (and, to a lesser extent, Ragnarok), but everyone always votes for it, meaning I rarely get to play other maps. I’ve played 49 games on Exile, and 34 on Ragnarok, in comparison to Longbow (my favorite) at just 24. I doubt this would be something you could do as it would anger others, so here’s a counter proposal: could you possibly increase the frequenency that the DLC maps appear as voting options? In the entirety of my games when I played the Crimson DLC playlist, I only got to play Wreckage around four or five times as opposed to Shatter which I probably played 20-30 times, and I never got to play Harvest. Ever. In the Crimson DLC playlist. It never even showed up as an option to be voted on. Can anything be done about this?
I agree OP, Exile in particular is so overused, and is extremely frustrating to play on given it’s asymmetrical and massively unbalanced nature. It also seems to spawn up to 4 rocket launchers at a time on Dominion, and is my least favourite map in Halo 4 for these reasons.
…and while we’re at it, increase the frequency of Majestic maps in Infinity Slayer. You can play for hours and never get them.
Maybe not enough people got these map packs.
I think Exile and Ragnarok has been decreased I haven’t came across them as an option as often as other maps.

So just so I understand, you want to decrease the frequency of maps that other people actually enjoy, so you can play YOUR favourite maps?
It doesn’t work like that, not at all. Ragnarok already had its frequency lowered a few weeks after launch, it is pretty obvious that people like that map, as well as Exile.
As for DLC maps frequency being increased, DLC maps will always show up in the voting slots if everyone in the game owns them. DLC maps can’t show up in the voting options if people don’t own them.

Well, I didn’t mean to sound selfish…I just wish all the other maps appeared more often, not just the one’s I like.

I was unaware of that

So really that many people haven’t downloaded even the Crimson maps? I just find that hard to believe.
They should have just made map selection the veto system so every map gets a turn to be played no matter what.
I’ve actually stopped calling it Big Team Infinity Slayer and now call it Exile Infinity Slayer. All Exile, all the time!
cough cough
Seriously though, that’s just about all that is ever played anymore. Ragnarok only has about half the chance of winning as Exile, and the other maps are virtually nonexistent for me now.

Correct, the games population is really low nowadays, the chances of you matching people with the Crimson DLC while the matchmaking system takes connection, skill, location, etc is really low, especially in BTB.
