What is this nonsense?

[Motherland]

For the second day in a row I've logged on to see blue more populated than orange. I don't think I've ever seen this before, at least not in the last year or so, more than once or twice....
 

[jay]

was about to ask the same thing whats up with people?

[DaCoon]

When I logged in yesterday I didn't care for the map in LWO too much, so I flew in LWB. Maybe a trend...

[Krusty]

Terrible map, perhaps?

You're not alone...

The reason was the map that was up on LWO yesterday. You can notice that every time beta2 is up in LWO: People will simply flee from the arena. There is no other map in the current set that has such a strong effect on arena choice, the only one that comes remotely close is mesaview.

Yeah I'd buy that. Don't care for mesaview too much either. Too much in the way of climb, dive, climb, hit a tree 

[jay]

both the maps are the same though!?

[Lusche]

They are now

But as people tend to join the arena where the the majority of players are, it will take some time to reverse the effect caused by beta2.

[Stalwart]

Heck, I don't fly much anymore, but the last time I was on there were over 30 furballing in the DA.  What does that tell you?

[Rich46yo]

Boy I never thought I'd see the day where I'd be begging for Uterus. But I m completely tired of seeing two large maps at once. Most of all two large water maps.

Oh they are great maps, dont get me wrong. But two at the same time?

I miss the days of going into LWB where'd there would be a small map, about 150 sticks, and the fight would be a lot better.

I feel the same about the A1 map. Remember? The big map with the running battle for A1? Where it bottlenecks? Again a fine map but two of them are to much of a good thing. Well tomorrow is TT and 500 to 600 online makes a big map better cause you can find small fights.

Thing is tonight? You have the option of two gangbangs and a whole lot of empty space.

[trotter]

I don't fly very frequently so I couldn't answer this, but how often do the large maps even get "won"? I know that the pinwheel map NEVER gets won. And as for the rest, I see them around until Tuesdays and then TT resets both the arenas.

I don't care much if the maps are won often or rarely, but it is worth asking: what would HT prefer for game dynamics? I think at least we should be getting 1-2 resets a week due to victory (seems like a good balance) but I'm not sure if that is occurring?

Having a big map in both arenas sucks big time

What Even Steven said.

I agree 110%, I wish we had a small map in one and a large map in the other arena. It would make finding the after hours fights a bit easier to locate as well.

At the very least, don't have the exact same map up in both arenas.
