Nah. How about you play what you get and learn to adapt? Because if you get a bad map as a sniper, the enemy does too. So is balanced.

Well as already suggested you can either adapt or even look for different guns in the towers .. or you simply leave the mission before the match starts and queue again. That way you don't lose your hunter and you don't waste time to head to an extract.

I prefer to not be able to choose the map and the weather, because if I could choose all that I'd never be at a disadvantage. Middle of the day on the first two maps you'd only encounter players with snipers sitting in bushes who're afraid to make the first move. Fog or night on any map would be shotguns camping every corner of a boss lair or it's surrounding. Yeah sounds like a lot of fun to me.

The thing is, now you can't leave anymore. If you do, your hunter dies.
You are forced to play that map.
I don't know when they changed it but it happened twice to me yesterday before I realized what was going on.

That's odd because I managed to leave the mission and keep my hunter two days ago. But even if this would be the case you can still head to an extract so you don't have to play at your disadvantage. But my point still stands that if you could choose the map and weather condition you'd never be at any disadvantage and the matches would become super boring and unfun since you'd only encounter sniper players that sit in bushes during daytime and shotgun campers on weather conditions that have less visibility.

So either way, if you don't want to play with a scope during fog you can always extract if leaving the mission isn't working and queue again if it's so bad for you to be at a disadvantage and you don't want to adapt. That's still a viable option you're having there for not playing at a disadvantage and all it takes you is a few minutes of your time.
Your hunter doesn't die if you extract, are you alt-F4'ing instead? You can extract literally any time I've never heard of anyone losing a hunter to that before, of all the glitches and wonky ways to lose a hunter that isnt one of them.
keeping trying i bin say that for years and finally added in new game mode that i just really don't care for anymore should of added it in much sooner not 7 years in the game life spand lol

but they added posty to the game so hopefully the kidos are happy
A selection of the map will never happen.

This would split the queue. Hunt has far too few players for this, even a functioning matchmaking is not feasible.

You would wait forever for a game.

no, i swear i left normally.
i know about how the mechanic works. maybe it was a bug, but it's so specific that i'm not sure. the text clearly says your hunter is going to die if you go back to the main menu.

The reason you can't choose your contract anymore is because there simply isn't enough players.

Try to divide 25,000 (peak :lunar2019laughingpig:) into all the different server regions, sort by MMR, then divide them into different groups for the different contracts, then again for if it's a duo or trio match, then factor in the people who are playing Clash, and again for Soul Survivor, now take into account that rounds last for 45 minutes and new players can't join mid-match.

What? You walked to an extract and the game told you your hunter would die? LOL. Ok dude.
Bringing a scoped weapon does increase fog weather 90% of the time. Deal with it
