your guess is as good as mine. At first i was wondering why it wouldnt let me in the arena with the least amount of players. then some squaddies told me there was 153 in orange, not 100

Prime time U.S. the caps are 300 and 400 with @ 175-200 and 250-300 people in each arena.

Effectively there are no caps until the overall numbers drop, I guess.

How many people were showing in the open arena? More than 100?

There seems to be a glitch that sometimes causes Orange to show as 100/100 even though there are actually more people than that in the arena. Earlier tonight a squaddie was trying to get into Orange which showed as 100/100 from the Lobby while Blue was something like 130/200, but I was in Orange and there were actually 153 people in it.

When i got in it said
Orange:100/100
Blue:123/200

I was being told that Orange had well over 100 ppl while the text was showing only 100 in Orange must have been a glitch or a bug its fine now Orange and Blue both open

It's not a glitch.

Arenas now show the max when then are full instead of the overage.

Bad move. Put it back the way it was, please.

The problem with this game, to the extent there even is one, is NOT that the arena caps are not strict or annoying enough. Trust me.

I've seen the same thing a few nights now in the last week. I thought that maybe there was an arena reset. till I got in last night and 5 min later the arena was reset LOL

Don't put it back. 

Why do people think it's important or a good idea to see 153/100 or even 101/100?  What's wrong with showing the arena is full by showing the number maxxed out?  Oh yeah, that's right...then they know if the try to enter the capped arena every 2 seconds for 5 minutes they might get in, instead of just going to the open arena for a couple of sorties before trying the other arena again.

I also see fewer epic CAP whines about an arena showing 150/150 versus it showing 178/150.
