LWO pop caps
« on: January 03, 2009, 12:26:59 PM »
I don't honestly know what determines the population caps in each arena. What i do know is they seem to be set up to cause maximum frustration. Is it to much to ask that for my 15 dollars a month i could play when i want too ?

You can play when you want to, just not where.  What's wrong with blue?

What exactly is the "arena cap gripe" thread rate.  5 per month?  60 per year? That poor horse is already dead and beaten and it's still getting clubbed to a pulp.  Poor horse.

Automatic boot after 35 minutes of non existent play (tower sitting, holding a place in an arena so that you can the caps and play in the arena you want many hours later)

One of our guys does that and I hate it. He turns the game on and goes to work so that when he comes home he can play.

It may well be a dead horse people. But it must be the most common complaint, and reason for people canceling their accounts. I for one would log in and log straight back out again after seeeing the arena caps. Very frustrating and the last nail in the coffin of my Aces High subscription.

In the last 3 months, the longest I've ever waited to get into my arena of choice is 10 minutes.  That was the longest and that happened once.  Most the time I get in first try, and sometimes I have to quit, relog, a few times in a row until the cap shows correctly, mostly never more than one minute of inconvenience.  Canceling your account over this?  :huh
