Where's the rotating game modes?

I don't really see the point of having a "rotating" gamemode if they're out 4 times a year or less :l

As you maybe have realised...

the RGM is not part of the normal Gamemode-Choosing-Screen anymore

so what you need RGM for, if there is no Button for it anymore? x)

They decided it takes too much time to rebalance the rotating game modes once a month, time that could be better spent on balancing the regular game modes. So they switched to just having them for certain events.

The play drop-off on the rotating game modes is steep. Most people play the rotating mode like 2-3 times on the day it comes out and then quickly abandon it for the normal modes. When the modes are rotating once a month or so, it's even worse, especially because you get a lot of "rotating modes don't matter" trolls, so some people don't even play them at all.

I do agree with you though, they were far too sporadic this year. They need to find a happy medium between once a week and this years 3 rotating game modes (probably 4 when snowdown hits), I think.

They actually said they don't plan on doing them anymore. They plan on doing more event type game modes, like Odyssey. So heart-breaking.... [sg-soraka]
