    No Support. Reasons stated by @Scorvix . Also, some people like the less popular maps...

    I do agree that map repeats should be removed though.

    Edit:
    If this suggestion is added to Infection, I support this idea as well.

    Does spam really bother you that much? You can always do /ignore. Also, if people like less popular maps, then they'll vote for them.

    No Support i feel as only the same maps would be chosen over and over.

    Well as I stated, 5 maps are randomly chosen, meaning there is a low chance that a duplicate will arise. But if that is the case, then other people stated that they would prefer if there was a way to prevent the map that was played previously from being in the choices.

    Yes, but int the end only 3-4 maps will ever be played because the majority of people who play Infection prefer the camping maps such as Nether or Aztec. No one or very few people will vote for maps like Temple or Caves. Even though they are the best.

    Ok so what? People should be able to vote for the maps they actually want to play. If Caves and Temple "are the best" then people will just vote for them.

    You don't understand what "balance" in Infection is then. Whats the point in having lots of maps if only 3-4 are ever played on? Variety. Not just the maps themselves, but the types of maps. The maps that would be voted for are all the same type.

    You say this would be fair, but the majority of people won't get to play the map they want anyways. Here's an example.
    "Vote for Nether, OverGrowth, Mineshaft, Carnival, Aztec."
    "Vote Results: Nether-6, OverGrowth-7, Mineshaft-6, Carnival-5, Aztec-8"
    That's 8 people playing on the map they want, and 24 who don't.

    If this was added it would only collapse Infection. People would leave because of the unfairness of the voting system, and/or the repetition of 3-4 maps.


    This solves no problems, and only presents new ones. The owners know this and it's why this wasn't added into the old Infection. And it won't be added into the new one.

    Very true, player bias ruins everything a random system would be better. No support.

    I like the idea but maps loved by everyone will get picked too much which makes it boring and maps like caves and temple will be rejected because it's hard to survive as human

    Make it so the map chosen last time isn't available to vote after 2-3 rounds.
