Standard Map Conversion is a Mess

Selling maps for chaos is not so terrible compared to selling maps to a vendor. Especially with people mining divination cards like gold being around. If you have all favored slots unlocked like I do for example, you can control your map farming as you wish.

While it takes time to teach a certain people how to use bulk search and not spam you with 20+ posts from per-item trade, this is still the best you can make out of this mess. Hoping for a fix won't work because those who could fix it aren't playing the game and likely think QoL complaints are made up.

I believe they can deal with tie issue once there is enough people speaking up to make it worth their effort. Development time is a business calculation, and I can understand... and even sympathize - to a degree.

They key is raising enough of a ruckus to escalate the issue's priority.

The beta-league takes priority - since that is where their money comes in. But the Standard population is still significant. (I've dumped about seven grand into this game). Small population, but many of us are big spenders.

The map tab has been a re-occurring source of legitimate angst. My hope is that they can use this time, now the that league is sorted out, to deal with the issue.

Don't forget.

Still a mess.

Still zero communication from GGG on this topic.

Wut?

Standard map conversion is a mess. Two related problems need to be fixed. First, it is all too common for not all maps can be converted leaving the map conversion in a half done failed state. Second, map distribution after conversion is horrible. Most maps are converted into few map types. This gives a few maps at the maximum 72 maps. While most map types have very few or no maps converted to that type.

Anyone arguing this is not a mess that needs to be fixed is not being sincere in their argument.

And now that all maps can be t16, just convert the “as is” and let me move on. Having two quad tabs of 4 maps and zero of the others is just a slap in the face.

Yeah that is pretty frustrating.

I don't like my 200+ residence maps that much.

I have taken to leaving my watchstones out both in standard and in Beta League. It will help so I don't end up hundreds of one map - but it won't stop the issue since there is some sort of weighting or randomness to the conversion process.

This does need to urgently be addressed.

Thanks.
