Pay to Play
« on: March 02, 2009, 05:34:48 PM »
How many you have logged on and been unable to get in to your fav room? We all have been thur this.Wonder if they can make  away to let payers  jump in to rooms that they want.Maybe seen a message to the 2 weekers that they have been moved to another room because a paying players wish to play in this room and to avoid this happening become a member.(might help to get ppeps to join faster)

There's 2 Arenas, first of all. Both of them are never full (and if they are, not more than a minute or two due to arena caps). Kicking the 2 Weekers isn't very good for HTC if they plan on getting money from them.

If there was only one arena, and you were able to get in, you'd have a legitmate complaint.

However there are many, and many more people really should spend more time exploring early war, mid war, Training arena, AvsA, etc.

Pretty much all MMOs on the market will auto-disconnect you after 15 to 30 minutes of idle.  Don't see why it can't be the same in here.

Eh, it kinda sucks being locked out of the arena the whole rest of your squad.

$59.99 a month, premium.  Kick back half of it to me and you can kick me out of your "favorite" arena as much as you like.

Why is it your "favorite" again?

Maybe because he gets to feel adrenaline when someone shoots him down? I'm not quite sure.

Totally agree but their business model (I hope) is to draw in more people. While it might be fun to log into a server that is 50% newbs and chew them up, I doubt the newbs would stick around very long.

I convinced a co worker to try it out and due to the constant death from vulching he never logged back in.  I keep trying to get him back but, he's not budging.

Maybe something needs to be done here for both parties.
