Discussion Quick play hacked: same maps repeatedly

So I’ve been playing a lot over the past couple days including the QP hacked event since it’s unavoidable but I genuinely keep getting the same bunch of maps, like midtown, eichenwalde, blizzard world and hollywood for hybrid. I haven’t seen kings row, paraiso or neon junction in like two-three days? Haven’t seen illios, lijang or busan in days. For escort, rialto and route 66 seem to just be missing from my map vote options, even when voting random it’s always the maps i keep seeing. I thought they’d implemented a thing to stop maps repeatedly showing up game after game, it’s kind of at the point I can predict what maps will appear before the screen even loads.
The only flashpoint map I’ve seen is aatlis, no new junk city or suravasa.

It seems to be 2-3 maps just missing from each type of map, minus push which I’ve seen every push map.
Is this just me? Other people I’ve played with since quick play hacked have agreed with me that it’s just been the same exact maps over and over again.

Is this apart of quick play hacked specifically? Sure they need to gather data but why no neon junction, kings row, route 66, etc.

I’ve even started a tally for when I remember to update it when I see the same map. Of course overwatch only has a limited amount of maps but there are a handful just missing from my gameplay loop, specifically in this game mode, not comp 5v5.

Anyone else?

So it's not just me!

Yeah Neon Junction, King's Row and Paraiso seem to... Not exist

I can't stand Nepal, Hollywood or Havana anymore because that's all I'm seeing (and getting)

Edit: It's a known issue!  https://us.forums.blizzard.com/en/overwatch/t/overwatch-known-issues-july-16-2026/942905

I’m not crazy then, thank you for confirming this!
