Cant for the life of me understand why its called the "Dueling Arena" When thats the one thing it absolutely isnt.
And why you will never see me in there.
I mean whats the point?
If someone and myself have a score to settle and we want to do it 1 V 1. I can just as easily call them out in one of the main arenas and run the risk of getting interfered with as I can in this so called "Dueling arena". And I wont have to risk leaving the arena and not be able to get back in when Im done.
They should rename it for what it is
the "Melee Arena"
Melee
–noun
1. a confused hand-to-hand fight or struggle among several people.
2. confusion; turmoil; jumble: the melee of Christmas shopping.
n.
1.
1. Confused, hand-to-hand fighting in a pitched battle.
2. A violent free-for-all. See Synonyms at brawl.
2. A confused tumultuous mingling, as of a crowd: the rush-hour melee.
HTC, and the community would be far better served if they set up "Dueling" similar to like they had it in Air Warrior.
You didnt even have to leave the Main arena. Challenge someone to a duel, Agree to what rules you were going to fight by.(cold merge, Alt, Types of planes etc) Pick your fields and have at it.
You became invisible to the rest of the arena. It was just you and the other person without even an outside chance of some cherry picker coming in and ruining a good fight.
Barring that
They should at least call the arena what it is. the Melee Arena, or the Furball Arena
Cause a "Dueling Arena" is the one thing it isnt.
