Well for difference how about 200 players in the arenas as opposed to 8?  That looks like a huge difference to me.

There's a really big difference....no H2H freeloaders in our arenas.

No freeloaders.

Oh, and maybe a difference of at least one hundred people per arena?

Keep reaching guys, this keeps getting funnier and funnier.

Sorry Stang, yourīre wrong. At times when Chris3  and many others are able to fly there are nowhere near 100 ppl in an arena now. There used to be about 90-150 now they split up.  And if you were one of those people not solely interested in the beauty of 1vs1, you do have a problem now. While you and many others can & will be happy as you want, please respect that current setup may in fact has some problems for other people.

Well thanks for letting me know, I didn't realize I was like that.  

The current setup does have problems, such as a slightly out of whack ENY, country switching time limit needs to be reduced drastically to help balance arenas, and there needs to be a way to communicate across arenas.

But please, this is a game, don't act like a change is the end of the world.  This will be better for the game in the long run, just try to bear with it instead of getting squeaky squeaky mad about it.

I really hope that none of my various post on this topic sounded squeaky squeaky mad. I tried not to threaten anyone, yelling "This SUGGS!" or "I U DONT CHANG I QUIT!" (That wouldnīt have impressed anyone anyway   :D  )

And I was always aware that those ENY, ACK & Time limit problems are just the usual few glitches appearing in a major change. I really could have dealed with that.

Just like the American players, not everybody loved what we had before, and when I see only a few dozen players in the LWA, instead of a few hundred, with the other 200-250 crammed into the EWA and MWA, I think HT has given a lot of them what they want - change.

While I can understand that this would affect the Euro players more obviously with only a fraction of the peaktime US players, if all of you had been having fun, you'd all congregate in one arena anyway, and the situation would remain unchanged. The fact that this isn't happening would seem to mean that the other Euro players are as interested in some change and variety as we are.

Well, itīs difficult because of human nature: "Letīs all congregate in the arena I like the most!" ;)

But now all planes are enabled in late war 1, so itīs the old MA planeset. And guess what Arena has currently the highest number of players by a huge margin???

So I guess the MA was pretty popular after all? Thanks HTC for bring back MA plus giving the option for the other arenas as well.

Domin, no offense, but you guys know nothing but the MA. It's popular because it's the only thing 90% of the players have ever experienced. That's not popularity, that's habit.

OK, here's an idea.  In order to generate the huge furball's that were so common in the MA how about an arena with just one 25 mile square sector.  Stick in 20-80 guys and voila, there's your horde.;)
