LW arena proposal

[Docc]

if HT really wants to equalize numbers he'd cap country numbers in each arena instead of overall arena numbers AND leave ENY in place.

We once had a map that had a central TT area surrounded by high mountains to keep the bombers out. This keeps the GV crowd happy.

It was a large map that could hold lots of players.

We should return to a one MA format with only large maps to accomodate the large numbers of players. Works during peak times. Problem you say when few are on. Hogwash. When few are on they tend to play where others already are, thus concentrating numbers in a small area. Works during off peak times.

During off peak times the tool shedders and milk runners could do their thing in fringe areas of the front away from the hordes. And speaking of hordes, can you imagine the massive furballs during peak times with one MA. It would br something to see. What, don't like hordes, then go to a quieter part of the map.

I believe this map was called Trinity. An expanded version would work well.
returning to a single MA format with a protected TT keeps the greatest numbers of players happy. The big pizza map with a central protected TT are would also work. Or festerma with a central protected TT are would work.

GV crowd-happy
Milk runners- happy
Tool shedders - happy
I have to fly with my squad always - happy
I cant change country ever crowd - happy

The only thing not addressed is ENY, but I think with all of us on one map numbers would have a tendancy to balance out more so than with multiple MAs.

What do you guys think?

And please don't be harsh if you think of somethings I have failed to mention, just putting forth an idea here.

Thanks

What do I think?  I think you are asking for the exact same thing we had.  And you know what?  It sucked.

With #s down during the day, usually sub 220 combined for both LW arenas and only using the limited # of small maps. I'd like to see 1 LW hard coded to 350/400 max capacity using the Large maps we have, and 1 LW Arena open ended capacity like now using the small maps.

this would give a greater choice of maps to play on, and also a better choice of fights during the early day time for Euro/US players.

The map with FT! 100% Agreed.

What exactly was it that sucked, Stang?  I was under the impression that most players were happier with the single MA big map approach.

Agree... I know I preferred it.

What was the reason for the inital split then if everyone was happy? Must have been a reason.. i don't think HT spends his day devising new ways to annoy people and generally disrupt play.

[EDIT] Then again thats probably what i'd do if i was emperor of the universe.

[The Fugitive]

not everyone was happy, there was a lot of complaining about the hordes! HT thought the community was turning into a slum, so he split them. Yes we still have hordes, but they are smaller and can be stopped with 10 people working together. The old way 10 was drop in the bucket against the horde and didn't even slow it down, let alone bust it up.

So, it's HT's fault that there aren't more European players?

You guys can't be serious.

I'm not exactly sure what you're getting at, but I find it odd that a minority complains about a double standard when you get exactly the same treatment as everyone else- as though by virtue of not generating enough income or active players, you should receive preferential treatment.

That's not the way businesses succeed.
