Stopped by WWI arena
« on: July 25, 2010, 09:43:22 AM »
Strolling around to see what other people are doing, I stopped into the WWI arena last night.  I believe there were four others in there at the time.  What a pleasant experience!  No ganging, a smaller amount of HOing, pleasant and respectful conversation, and a collection of very fun-to-fly aeroplanes whose wings always seem to be blotting out my view of the enemy aircraft.  I enjoyed it very much, and recommend it to all.

I love the WW1 arena.

Success in the MAs I think are due to the fact that there is an objective involved.
The simple hatred for bomb****s, toolshedders, NOE hordes, milkrunners are what keep the MAs alive and hopefully soon, some sort of objective is incorperated into the WW1 arenas to keep player's attention span focused in there a bit.
As it stands now, I frequent the WW1 arena. Although great fun, I do tend to get bored after a few sorties

The WW1 arenas are the most fun when there is around 8 to 10 players in there.  Does not take a lot of players to make those arenas really fun to play in.

Always a fun arena.  I tend to fly there only anymore when I do log in due to the fun fights and the lack of immature "fights" on channel.  Wormzila, Ehre, Death, Billreed, Snefens and several others are great fun to fight and are great people in general.  Always fun when we see one of the HTC crew come in for a sortie or two. :D

That is true of any arena.  It's the nature of the people that makes the difference.

I have a couple WW1 terrains in-progress to help either breathe a lil' life into the arena and/or give the regulars some new scenery.  The last TE update contained some new WW1 stuff not yet seen in-game that I'm planning to use.

Forgive me if I find it humorous that you say the thing you hate the most in the MA are what makes it successful and you wish for them in the WW1 arena. And you don't really believe that the "hatred" is the reason the MA's are successfully do you? Bottom line is you are correct in your second part of the sentence, objectives are what makes the MA's successful if this wasn't true the DA would be packed. Incorporate objectives into WW1 and you would have a winner. :aok
