Where did the 100 player maps go?

How old is that round? Maybe the Middle East is conquered already?

100p maps gets created whenever the last map of this type gets full. If that doesn't happen, the system will create a new one 14 days after the last one.

I didn't see any when I went to join a new game, and if I try an create my own game, the 100 player map is not an option...?

Um, in the worst case scenario, we have to wait 2 weeks to see a single new match? What in the world?

There should be at least one new match available every few hours if not several per hour.

Better yet, there should always be at least one match with at least 30 open positions. And if there is none, then the system should start a new 100 player map within 15 minutes. And so long as it gets filled up to at least 70 players, the next map should be automatically started.

Weeks later and still no 100 player/ world maps.... can anyone fix this??

I just did a check, and the last map that has room for a 100 is 43 days old. So it indeed seems to be an issue, I think becouse loads of people are playing on 50 maps, which also has the same problem

Also if I go to create my own game there is not an option for 100 player map...

Users can't create 100p maps. I already said it earlier in this same thread...

I think some people may not be seeing maps due to their search options limiting what is available. Someone was asking in chat earlier today why there were no new 50 player maps. I looked and there was one at day zero, and five at day 1. All one may need to do is ensure the search options are set to allow you to see all games.

Basic trouble shooting not helping? other browser/cookie/temp files etc, etc.. (it never does btw lol)

The fact is that the problem lies in that 100 player maps are not automatically generated. Only the staff can start a new 100 player match. And if none of them is online or remembers to start a match, then there won't be any. And even if there are several in-progress matches at day 37 and 44 and 72 and 85 -- each with exactly one open slot -- there is no good reason to join those because you'd just walk into a crappy situation where someone else is already winning.

No, there needs to be a new match available at all times....automatically. Sure, others need to get filled, but any match more than a week old should count against that and -- frankly -- even a one-day-old match tends not to have good choices of nations left.

You are far from the reality. System generates them automatically every 14 days if the newest map doesn't get filled up, if it does, then it'll appear a new game the next day. If something doesn't work like that, is just another fail in the code.

If there is a fail in the code, then I'm not far from reality in that sense. As for there being a new 100 player map generated whenever there is need for one, I am SPOT ON! What kind of nonsense is wrong with them if they have it set to only generate ONE new map per day? That is not fair for all the players that actually want to play.

Besides, if my solution for an automatically generated map whenever one is not available that does not meet the necessary conditions of availability were considered and utilized, then the lack of available maps would no longer be an issue AND there would not be maps generated needlessly.

Now, the way it OUGHT to be is that a new map is generated every 15 minutes WHENEVER it is needed. The system should automatically generate a new World Map whenever the following occurs. IF there is at least ONE World Map match available WITH at least 30% of the remaining playable nations available to be selected by new players, AND WITH that has NOT progressed more than 35.99 hours, THEN NOT generate a new World Map.

Pseudocode-like Formula:

SET worldMapShouldBeCreated = TRUE

WHILE (iterate through all currently operating World Maps every 15 minutes)

IF (

0.3 >= (selectedWorldMap.RemainingPlayableAvailable/selectedWorldMap.RemainingPlayableTotal)

AND

36.0 > DateTime.ConvertToHours( DateTime.GetCurrentDateTime() - selectedWorldMap.DateTimeStart )

)

THEN (

worldMapShouldBeCreated = FALSE

BREAK

)

ELSE (

CONTINUE

)

System automatically generates 100p. Game Operators and up have ability to open them, but do not create them on request.

The problem lies in that if your favorite country is taken, you sit and wait for another 100p map to generate. Then only 30-60 countries get claimed and the rest stay empty. This is why we limit how many games are open at once: To get players to play as countries other than their favorites. This will lead to world maps being and staying more full, as there are not enough maps to go around. If we allow you to flood the system, each with your own map where you got your fave country, we would have hundreds of 100p maps with one or two players in them.
