Can we Pleaassee have 1 v1 random map only queue?
-
@morax The problem is that there are premade maps that require different knowledge and even if you remove those, a well thought out BO that accounts for all the specifics of a map will be better than one made up on the spot. Even if you can correctly tell the usefulness of tree reclaim near your base etc.
So as soon as the map to be played is known beforehand, you will need to learn BOs or be at a disadvantage -

@morax That is the reason some people prefer mapgen over premade maps. So that they don't have to invest time outside of the match they find fun to not be at a disadvantage. For some mastering a map to such degrees is fun, for some it isn't. That's why people plead here for more mapgen in ladder / some option for more mapgen.

No idea how many of the 11k games I have played are map gen, but am guessing there's at least several hundred, and I can assure you that in time you will realize map gen is not all that random. There are without a doubt mastered starts and layouts that can leverage them there as well.
As pointed out this has been trialed before and it did not really show it is favorable.

@blackyps I have cloned the repo and am having a poke around.
Are there any instructions for building for linux?
-
What repo exactly? Let's move this somewhere else. You can find me on discord and either message me directly or in #development-general on the faf server

noooo my 800 opponent has full mastery of this map ahhhhh its unwinnable
frick snoops!
-
he actually plays 4000 on that one map and 0 on the other 5 maps

@sladownoob its not about winning or not, I just don't enjoy. There is a reason why other rts ranked only use random generated maps - because then it is completely fair.

very good reply time

And why is it unfair to prepare for the games? The map pools are open to everyone. And everyone have access to the replay vault so you can just spend 3 minutes and get BO for a map.
