Attempts to join a full arena will now divert you to the non-full arena of the same type.


   
 I tried it, but it feels like i book and pay for a hotel room with balcony and  oceanview, but you dump me in boiler room, 2nd basement,
 
 The way is set up now, fuball arena with small caps, are way better choices out there,
 This game is poor graphic for 2006, very limited  # of models ,
 imop,MA ,the massive multiplayer flavour, chat,fun,community, old friends/SQDs was all about it,
 
                                                                                  Game over  !

maybe HTC needs to lower number of players a squad can have (like max 10 or so) and pre approve squad names to prevent the joining of smaller squads into mega squads via the squad name.

I would just like to say that before the switch there were options of being in a massive arena or a smaller arena.

It seems that AH players have preferences for both.

If you have a two markets of consumers why deny yourself access to one of the markets?

Economically it is irrational.

Maybe he's "beetchin" because he's not satisfied with the service he paid for.

Koska trendi tuntuu olevan, että pelaaminen tehdään koko ajan hankalammaksi, joka välppäämällä arena kokoja tai nuuteroimalla vaaraksi jenkkihegemonialle olevat koneet, pitäisi vissiin vetää johtopäätökset. Mutta sitä on kai niin tyhmä, ettei älyä vain kadota, vaan kuvittelee että nämä ameriikan pellet välittää paskaakaan ja oikeasti yrittävät kehittää tästä hyvää pelikokemusta. Homma on ryssitty, taas. Dollarit kyllä kelpaa, mutta peli junnaa paikallaan, tai etenee kuin Italialaiset tankit, yksi eteen kaksi taakse.

Gee, I wonder how many rules I just broke? GO figure....

Eagler,
I suppose people "whine" for the particular reason that they CARE for this game and would like to play it. If AH was just the same for them, they would just fade away.

IMHO it is always better to have some kind of opinion than none at all.
Surely it would be nice if all discussion could always be civil and constructive. On the otherhand, AH is something that awakes passions :) I assume HTC prefers that over something "mediocer just-the-same"

There is a limit of 32 in a squad now, and several squads have gotten around this by having 'wings'-- there are at least 5 'mega' squads in here, some having nearly 100 guys to wreck an arena with. Limit it to 10, they would just have more 'wings'-- the best way to combat 'mega' hordes is the changes HT made

Why the hell limit squadrons to ten in number???

 you never get 100 percent of a squad on due to timezones and just not everyone gets on the same time.

and if this is a realistic world war 2 game,
#1  planes fought in big groups and little groups.. just like it was in MA
#2 squads were bigger than ten,
#3 theres no  strategy to wars now, cos theres four( not even bush can manage that lol)


Isnt this new game your making going to be realistic, so why change AH so you'll end up with two very similar games?

have a 2 arena/ 1 MA AH, and then for all the people that like exact reality can play the new game (i dnt remeber name)

surely that pleases everyone


and think about the numbers once you have ppl playing the second game too! its gna be bad.

all you mega squad whiners keep complaining about the 90+ member squad----on a normal squad night you might find 25 guys from that squad on ------where is this 90 person horde that you speak of----i,m a member of one of those wings and i have never seen this massive collective you keep whining about------when it is not squad night you usually have even less members on than that--you might find 5 or 6 guys flying together---most of the time these guys are scattered around the map having fun-----where is the mega squad---i would really like to see it in action!!!-------learn how to count, you fighter dweebs!!
