The arena whines have been getting ridiculous, this was finally the post to push me over the edge into maniacal laughter, thank you.  So well put, such a beautifully sinister foretelling of the posts to come.

Fanboi here.

When I logged out the numbers were 100/100-117/200.

Can't join the L33T 100?

Are you pissed enough to quit yet?

Until everyone who is whining about the caps is willing to leave versus the people who are trying the game and staying, nothing will happen.

Everyone cancel your subscription NOW.

You need to prove Hitech that he is wrong by reversing the profitability in his concept with capped arenas.

No thanks, I think I'll keep my subscription.
Caps have done nothing to affect me.

If you, the "entire" community is so pissed about not being
able to fly with your squad, then
join
a
different
squad.


Stop whining, grow up.

Look...I love this game just as much as anyone.  I have yet to see any of my kids playing their WOW or Call of Duty games gripe about a player cap.  Bottom line is if it affects the community as a negative...which there is plenty of posts to show it.  Something needs to change.  This is 2011 right?

Comparing Aces High to LOL and CoD is truly sad.
Polar opposites at best.

I just bought the game and I think player caps is stupid. I'd rather play in "off hours" when there can be 300+ people on the same server. I didn't buy this game as a MMO just so that I can play IL-2 with worse graphics. If I wanted small battles I'd play IL-2 or some other flight sim. It kinda ruins the feeling that I'm taking part in a war, especially when I'm striving to win on one map, then I take a break and come back only to find out I have to fight for another map, then I take another break and find out I have to fight over YET ANOTHER map because there are effectively three different servers splitting up a community of roughly 500 players at any given time.

If I didn't like flight sims so much and the "off hours" arena didn't exist, I probably wouldn't be giving them my money. Plus I like to support local businesses since HiTech is really close to where I live, but I'd still rather see one large arena than two small ones. If people wan small battles they can go to the duel arena or play IL-2.

Comparing Aces High to anything in the market now is sad...
Like in previous posts this game is an oddity.  It has more potential than anything on the market. 

1) Do they have the big marketing name behind them? No.

2) Is Aces High a weenie point and shoot game? No.

3) Are people paying to sit in the opening screen of a game and choose arenas that have 2 to 10 people in it? Yes.

4) Are people fed up with this style of opening format? Yes.

Apparently you have to wine a lot and make a lot of posts to be heard...so that's what I intend on doing.

Tonight Orange was capped at 100/100, when I logged on.
So I went to Blue.  Guess what. So did the new squad that I was allowed to join.  Imagine that.  I'm a newbie to this squad, but they went to Blue, because I couldn't get to Orange.  That's class.
