We already did that to prove it has nothing to do with the arena.  I have to giggle a bit when I see someone say, "Orange is much better than Blue".  Sort of like saying the oxygen in East Texas is better than the oxygen in West Texas.

Take it from a Yankee who's been to Texas a few times...
There are definitely places in Texas where it's a bit easier for a Yank to breathe than others. ;-)

Here at work I have some favorites

THE FLY BY  works best with SBD farts....leave it behind the sales counter and quickly walk past an associate wafting the smell trail behind you


THE DEATH TRAP wait till the manager is on the phone with a sales rep in the Office ( you know the call will be long ) and just blantantly Rip a huge one. Then as he looks on in dismay run out of the office and slam the door shut. Poor guy is tethered in stank    :rock


carry on

Since you Muppet types derailed the thread, any chance you'll start calling Blue home and help the cause? :)

Didn't derail the thread, it just doesn't solve any cap problems.  We are in Blue regularly.  See ya there.

Is it my imagination or does this seem to be working.  Numbers between the two LW arenas seem to be closer and good fights in Blue.

at peak hours yes. but if you go online at 10am EST you'll see 130 in orange and 30 in blue
Then again, at 10AM you have no problems getting into Orange as the cap is at 400.

All depends on where you live. Caps kick in at my prime time, 7pm... resulting 180/100 and 20/150. And with currently less player numbers online, it takes not only a long time to get the arenas balanced then. Im mainly stuck to play with only about 100 players per arena at my late prime time, which is on average definitely less fun than having 200 in a single one.
Would I play at US prime mainly, caps wouldn't bother me that much beyond issues lime not being able to get back to a battle in progress after being booted.

This Pig is considering...After fighting huge NOE hordes from both sides in Orange last night.  It can get quite frustrating.  A squaddie suggested maybe HTC could come up with an arena that you can only crop dust and take bases, that way there is no combat.  The squads that do this sort of stuff would love it! :aok

As a member of a squad that goes all ways, these days.......  I can recall the days of FALCON23 NOE BishMish's......  And I just want you to know, you Pig:D , that it was also very frustrating not to have anybody come and defend.   :cry

And I find it asinine how many people complain about the hordes they see/hear on a map, yet don't get their squaddies together to stop it.  NOE horde?  Still needs to get to the base, which by that time has been flashing, for at least 120 seconds.
