I'm stuck on my nomad challenge.
I tend to U/U/G. I need just one more gold map.
Vancouver: 9 waves
Rio & London: about 25 waves.
So, what's wrong with these 3 maps, that they hardly ever show up in lobbies, and a lobby never fills if you try to host?
The maps nobody pugs

Edit: maybe I have bad luck.

Host. Choose U/U/G. When everyone comes in, change to specific map.
Or if you have a mic, just ask hosting player to change map.

It's not a problem I can't solve, I was just wondering whether Vancouver had cooties or something.

I can't say for everyone, but unless it's not a speedrun or farming for Nomad Challenge, my guess everyone just tends to choose U/U, because it's more fun this way. I don't even remember the last time I choose a specific map.Mzzl wrote...

Vancouver isn't too bad... I don't like London because of the center hack of doom. Rio is extremely big, making the game last longer than most want it to.
If you're looking for rio, just put it on platinum. 99% of the PUG platinums are played there.

Yeah for me vancouver isn't terrible. That London center hack though is terrible. Also I think I don't have Rio because the pizza objective is a nightmare.

Only played Condor once and even then it glitched out

I personally don't like Vancouver because:
A.) The spawns suck.
B.) Ammo box placement sucks
C.) Only 1 ammo box has 2 grenades.
Other than that it's ok.

Once I notice my nomad at 90% I go in see what maps I need and either search for them or create a match and finish them up. Otherwise you may never get them done.

I can't get any Platinum London, White, or pretty much any hazard maps for my Nomad challenge. I get all the Rio I DON'T want and when I finally do get London or White the host changes it to Rio.

Condor gold Geth was pretty common.

It has to be said that FB White comes up the most often. I'm not even kidding - 7/10 U/U/Gs are on FB White. Glacier is also common. Reactor comes third. Dagger fourth.
The rarest are U/U/Gs are Jade, Goddess and London.
In all the excitement, I've almost forgotten all about FB Ghost - used to play on it all the time back on the demo when it was a choice between that or FB White. Ghost Hazard is really, really rare on a PUG, but I happen to really like the map.
Nomad is easily done. The hardest map challenges are trying to get extractions on maps like Condor, London or Glacier Hazard. Thankfullly Jade is easier ever since they fixed the glitch whereby you failed to count for extraction if you were hugging a wall.

If I were you I would host Vancouver, skip Rio and London. London is hard to play (and the design is ugly), Rio sucks because games take forever there. But, I think Vancouver is a great map and you shouldn't have trouble filling lobbies there.

Vancouver - "One Button to Rule Them All" Hell if you get caught down in the Generator area on the lower area of the map. Also has terrible grenade, the only time I have ever had fun apart from this game is when I've been sniping.
Rio - Too big, widely associated with an easy-mode far m strategy.
London - It's just terrible the only somewhat defensible spot imo (apart from the bridge) happens to be where PUGs seem to like forcing spawns (just behind the box opposite the sniping position on the bridge). Also has terrible line of sight, not helped by enemies being capable of shooting through the giant pile of makos and rubble on LZ side. Worst hacks in the game.
I'm more surprised Reactor Hazard and Condor aren't the least played though. Both are rediculously glitchy with Condor being a notorious gamebreaker.

I have a suspicion the Earth maps come up less frequently for some reason in U/U games, but I have no evidence to back it up. Just a feeling I've had

I think Jade and Hydra were the last to drop for me doing UUP and UUG the first time around.
