The DA needs a terrain.

Right now you have two identical fields paired by altitude and an otherwise flat terrain.

Stick something in there with some features. Canyons, mountains, rolling hills... Mindy with a few mods maybe.

I'd like that a bunch, I think.

Just my .02.

Multiple arenas will never succeed unless we remove the word "main arena",

"Main arena" suggest to everone that THAT is the place you should be...

I think that all arenas should be given an equal chance to succeed, and for this to happen we need to rename the current "Main arena" to something different...

The word "Main arena" should simply be removed completly.

I would agree with this.............Our present DA design is better suited as a training environment.............. It could have  zones modified for bomber training and attack training and become a complete training entity (on and off line)

A DA would be a fighter only terrain where all ground objects are indestructable and all AI gguns are massively lethal but the terrain offers some sort of variance to the ambiance and altitude balance.

The only "score" that could be aquired would be that of fighter (attack would have to be disabled some how).



maybe Fester should bend his mind to a small ACM arena."Fester ACM"

............ and for me it would have kill shooter disabled.

I agree the DA map could be improved, at least what Shane mentionned, the 41-42-43 fields are too far apart.
They'd be good as they are for large furballs, but not groups of less than 5 per side;  maybe add another set of three like this one but smaller?

Plenty of room for this and other things in an enlarged map.

Democracy is two wolves deciding on what to eat. Freedom is a well armed sheep protesting the vote.
