Off Hours Arena request

[Clone155]

Dear Hitech Creations,

Will you please set the switch over time from the Off Hours Arena to the Blue and Orange Arenas back an hour? I Log on about an hour earlier before the switch, and I wait because I don't want to fly in an arena that will only last another hour.

Thank you for taking the time to hear my request.

Sincerely,
CLONE155

Two questions:

1: What's so bad in flying in an arena thats up for another hour? I can understand 15-20 minutes, but 60+ minutes is ample time for a couple of sorties, it's even enough for the average buff run
2: What if you would get your wish... and then the next player comes "Oh no, now it's just one hour for me, change it!"

   I have read the reasons for the arena caps but I really don't understand them.  Off time has 850 cap but peak time is 100.  Wouldn't it be better to leave it at 850, then all can get in.

You right, you don't understand it.

That's exactly what I'm thinking

The cap is 850 but the actual number of players in the arena is much lower because it's at off peak times. HTC believes it's better to limit the number of players in any arena at one time but they make an exception for Tuesdays.

And, the cap at other times isn't 100.  It is dynamic.  It changes depending on the number of people in each LW arena.  I suspect there is a hard cap as well but I haven't seen three arenas since LW went down once and there were three MW arenas.

Why arena caps?:

awwrgwy not criticizing you at all here, just making a general comment.

there's usually one arena with way more players than another.  dynamic is used in the context that it is constantly changing, but in reality it's not changing evenly. which you guys assume that it is.

I think it is funny when people quote dynamic caps and toxic arena and they have no idea what it means.

I haven't see the "way more players" since the new system.

I also haven't seen a full arena since the new system.

Where it used to be 50/150-211/100, now it's 211/250-189/200.

the larger cap arena numbers go up, the "full" arena numbers go up as a result.

Definition of DYNAMIC
1 also dy·nam·i·cal \-mi-kəl\ a : of or relating to physical force or energy b : of or relating to dynamics (see dynamics)

2 a : marked by usually continuous and productive activity or change <a dynamic city>

b : energetic, forceful <a dynamic personality>

3 of random-access memory : requiring periodic refreshment of charge in order to retain data

Obviously I'm playing at the wrong times, when the arenas aren't full.

As far as Toxic Environments, take it up the person I've quoted, the developer. The person who's wallet is most affected by said environment.
