Warzone Map Variety

Im getting real sick of 343i’s matchmaking system. The only Warzone map I EVER get is March on Stormbreak!! It’s been like this for months. I havnt even gotten to play the new Ghosts of Meridian Warzone map. Just today, I got March on Stormbreak four times in a row. Does anyone else have this problem?

That’s odd. I mean I’ve gotten the same map a couple times in a row, but not for months. Have you tried contacting support or whatever?

lol I always get Skirmish and Stormbreak

Wow, sucks to be you, played a few warzone games today and played on all the maps.

I tend to get Escape from ARC, Battle of Noctis and Stormbreak the most which is fine by me. Those are my favorite maps for WZ. Not a fan of Darkstar or the beach level(forgot name)

Some thing that I have noticed is on Sunday nights I seem to play the Darkstar more than any other.

I find if you stay in the lobby you usually get a good rotation.

Also looking at the OPs game history in warzone they get other maps… just some one over exaggerating as usual.

That is probably what is happening. Once I am done the match I do jump out, to get a drink or go to the washroom or whatever else comes up!!

Obviously there’s a bit of the Baader-Meinhof Phenomenon going on here with OP feeling déjà vu all over again. “I’m so sick of playing Stormbreak. Oh look, there it is again!” But it’s not entirely without merit in OP’s case. I did a little count of their last 20 Warzone games. They played Darkstar once. Apex 7 and A.R.C. were each played 3 times. Noctus was hit up 4 times. Stormbreak showed up NINE times. 45% of your games on a map when the expected value is around 20% is statistically significant. The expected value might actually be even lower because newer maps should see a slight bump in frequency in the rotation for a little while. When you only look at their last 10 games, Stormbreak was exactly 50%. That gets pretty stale pretty quickly. When you look at every game they’ve played since launch, Stormbreak appears more than twice as often as any other map.

Now, I’m still not saying that it’s 343’s fault. Random chance is a funny thing sometimes. Even with 30,000+ songs on my computer, hitting “random” will sometimes give you the same song back to back, although it’s rare and unlikely. Just looking at my game history and that of a few other people in this thread, Stormbreak is never the top map, and for a few, it’s even near the bottom. It’s pretty safe to say the map algorithm is working as intended in the big picture.

TL;DR: OP is an outlier on the bell curve of random chance.

The solution is to stop quitting games and go through the rotation.

I’ve been getting pretty balanced warzone maps lately, but I’ve had those days where I’ve played the same map multiple times.
