Was it ever explained why some maps appear much more often than the others?

I've seen multiple posts on Reddit having the same problem where a couple of maps appear VERY frequently.
I can confirm that I mostly play on Toba Landing, Nostromo, Hawkins, Midwich, The Game, Saloon, Badham and Lery's EVERY SINGLE DAY.

We have 19 realms and 43 maps in the game! Why do we have to play on the same maps every day? Sometimes it even takes me a couple of days to get one of the 4 maps from Withered Isle. If you want to boost certain maps, then please at least change the rotation every day or every week. It's been like that for a couple of months.

    I am not sure myself, but I am definitely noticing this. Its a bit frustrating as I would like to go to other realms.

    • I asked the same question here on the forum a few days ago. There's no specific reason, Devs simply buffed these maps. The thing that drives me crazy is the heavy nerf to the map offerings because they're "not fun"... but Devs can let you play literally 4 maps in rotation.

    They boost the frequency of certain maps. I don't know why. I can't imagine for what reason. There are 40+ maps. Why am I playing Lerys and Toba every other trial? Please stop it.

    Played Nostromo 4 matches in a row before I closed the game for that day.

    I don’t know if BHVR has ever stated this explicitly, but they could be boosting these maps to collect more data on them for future updates. It sure would be nice if they could at least tell us if this is the case, and when we can expect this miserable experience to be over. Right now it’s complete radio silence from them as usual. The boosted maps make the game incredibly unfun right now. I haven’t even touched the game in over a week, that’s how sick of these maps I am.

    *Remember the words I use?

    *"Gaming experience"

    *I realized that having too many maps negatively impacts the gaming experience.

    *I realized that providing low-quality maps is embarrassing and reduces the gaming experience.

    *I realized that the complaint that the same maps are boring is just a minor complaint.

    the devs saw that i want toba 24/7 so they did this for me as a personal favour.

    I'm sorry

    Cause devs think that boosting maps is a great idea.

    Didn't they state that maps get weighted on a rotation? Can't remember if it was maps or realms, but seem to remember them saying groups get kinda "featured" to show up more often which rotates instead of being true random.
