Petition to revert shatter to old map

As you may know by now, square enix never backs down.

However, with the power of friendship maybe we can convince square enix PVP team that this new map they made is indeed not very fun and poorly designed for a Player VS Player experience.

Please guys. The more the better !!!!! <3

My feeling is it's a significant improvement.

Keep the current map and make it 8v8v8 so people will actually listen to advice.

also ban queue sync and premades so we actually get pugs who cap nodes and dont lowscore third every single time eh? and not experience leechers against tryhard bullies
show your pro skills in another ranked mode where lb stacking and cc chains actually show how good you are instead of getting easy wins in the so called"casual" mode
always the same people getting free BH5 from first battles pathetic

the day they face same skill(or lack of) enemies cant come soon enough
what sort of answer is this you ask? it is one where facing the same opposing team in a row regardless of which character you queue as/or what frontline map is getting boring and annoying

Sadly, this won't really change much. With fewer people; than the jobs in your party matter much more. Got a party of 4 Bards that refuse to change but the other team stacked Monks and Black Mages? GG. We could also discover that having 8 of a single job could be entirely broken or something. The DRKxDRGxAST meta would just be rewritten with some unforeseen strategy.
Also 4 players are allowed to queue together on a team which means that alliances are more likely to be stacked by premades.

Yeah we really to stop allowing premades, it always will create inbalance - just make an extra mode for that.

I dont like the new map, it lost all its charme, i was always glad when it was up but now i try to avoid it - IF i do pvp at all...

3 team battle just sucks. The roulette bonus is nice though. Just learn to not care

Right or wrongly, many of us who do care are battling precisely that attitude.

The timing of nodes feels slow and makes the match almost always take the full 20 minutes.

With 2 large nodes always up, it becomes a game of which team gets screwed by alliance 3. The other team gets a large ice to themselves.

Agreed. Honestly, it baffles me why someone who doesn't enjoy doing something would continue to do it when there are other options easily available to them. If it's for tomestones or XP, or PvP- there are other options in the game.

Old shatter was completely fine and arguably played the most fair as well. All the others have issues with node spawns.

3 team battle is fine. What truly sucks is griefers who don’t care and don’t put any effort while others are trying to get wins for achievements.


As for the new shatter map, it is very hard to get quick matches now.

Please explain how. In the matches I've played all I've seen is how the changes they made to the map ages ago are not even remotely suited to this new format. Small ices sprinkled throughout create more interesting moments of splitting up the team. The final wave of small ices also basically just exist for the team in the lead to end the match, which is extremely boring. I have nothing at all good to say about the new Shatter and would kill to see these changes reverted.

There's far more actual PvP. It's still the weakest map, but the previous version I found completely unplayable.
