IMHO the only aspect of this game that peevs me off (and I've never heard anything positive concerning it from players, only negative or indifferent) is the arena cap. I understand HiTech's position and why he says it must be there, but IMHO it's the ONE THING that regularly irritates the crap outa me. It's possibly the ONLY thing that could drive me to find another game..... the fact that on a regular basis I'm either stuck in the DA or another less populated arena and I cannot fly with my squaddies, because LWO is capped at something silly like 100 or 150, just because no one wants to fly in LWB for whatever reason.
The rub, I think, is that if numbers really do decline when caps are not in place and customer #'s increase when caps are present.... I think it speaks more to the fact that most of the "loyal" customers hate the caps but wouldn't let that push them to leave, where-as people who do actually "leave the game" when caps are not in place may be leaving for other reasons... I just don't see how it could be 'too many people in one arena' that's causing people to leave when there are already numerous other less populated arenas where they have a place to go to 'get away from the horde.'
But, I'm not an "old time player' - I've only been here for a year and a month, so what do I know?
Otherwise, this is the most awesomely addictive fricking thing I've ever gotten hooked on.
