Oh please
« on: July 09, 2008, 12:51:17 PM »
Been sitting here for 20 minutes now waiting for orange to open up. Was 142/100, now it's 132/100. Love it how it doesn't go 132/150 after 20 minutes...now it's 130/100...going on 25 minutes.

At the risk of appearing stupid, why don't you fly in Blue?

Ended up going there, though there was a fight I wanted to take part in that was in orange after I got discoed.

Aaah, got it. 

Yeah, one thing I've suggested on the wishlist is that the arena's would hold a slot for a period of about 5 minutes for any player who leaves and doesn't enter another arena. (Discoed, exited to fix something, etc.)

Saw that too. Just makes me mad that after 30 minutes it was still about 130/100

Time really has nothing to do with "when" you will be able to get back in.

If the numbers drop in Orange below 100 you will be able to get in

OR

If the population in Blue grows to a certain percentage of its MAX, additional slots will be added to the Orange MAX

Either one of these conditions could take mere minutes or hours.

It's a load of bollocks really.

Blue arena usually has 50 MORE slots than orange arena, when it is used considerably less than orange. It makes no sense.

I've sat literally for 45 minutes waiting for slots to open up in Orange. I don't want to fight in blue because most of the times the fights are awful and the all of the good sticks are in Orange.

as I said in a thread I started a few weeks back.............the entire process needs a re-think......and judging by the responses.......it should get one.

It was rethunk many different ways BEFORE they even did it. If you can come up with something better that HAS NOT been suggested before (use the search feature) I'm sure HTC would love to hear it. An arena is where they place a map (mostly as a focal point so we know which way is up), so that we can fly planes. "blue", orange" are just names, fun can be had in either arena. Only fools limit their own fun.

While waiting for Orange to open up, why not go to the DA? Never has arena cap problems and always has a good fight going on.
