For a while now, I've noticed certain maps (most notably ping-pong) seem to appear at a much higher frequency than other maps. As a player who enjoys variety, it is very frustrating to get the same map for the fifth time in a row. I assume this is for one of two reasons:

1. Newer maps may have inflated probabilities to introduce them to players
2. Players are much more likely to leave maps they don't like - this means that lobbies with unliked maps stay around for longer and take up a larger portion of available lobbies

I hope it's not the second one as this seems like a pretty catastrophic issue. Either way, I would appreciate more variety in my maps.

I agree with the suggestion and here’s why you keep getting Ping Pong over other maps: It’s because some sweats with SkyWars Rank / Game Pass keeps starting queues for it, which makes other maps harder to queue into if you use quick play. We need a solution to this!!!

lobbies normally fill very quickly especially in skywars solos. if you find yourself in a map you dont want to play its easy to re q and you often get another map the 2nd time around. Additionally having rank within the mode would make map selection easier.

I didn't realise people could start queues for certain maps - that definitely explains it! I understand the need to balance ranks with other players experience, but in this case I think it's gone a bit too far when the map frequency is so skewed. I'd suggest maybe adding more limits on how often someone can choose to queue for a certain map.

You're right, I seem to have been wrong about the mechanism behind this issue. However, I disagree with your other points - players should never be forced to have to requeue, and not everyone wants to spend money on skywars ranks.

Thanks for the follow!
Logged onto Cubecraft Java for the first time since 2021/22. I miss these days playing every day when the server would average 5-8k. Looking through my friends list seeing all my friends I would talk to every single day gives me an uneasy yet satisfying feeling.
Had to log on to the forums and see what's popping here. If any old friends see this please don't hesitate to hit up my discord to catch up :)
