New type of arena
« on: November 14, 2012, 05:31:47 PM »
      Just a thought here..   An arena that is like the dueling arena, except that say every 5 mins,  flights are started at 10k. You sign up like a mission 5 p51's vs 5 109's.  When they are full or after 5 mins it starts. Something like Call of Duty is what I had in mind. This gives you a quick team, no climbing,  equal numbers and no worries about more planes coming in to pick you from a nearby base. 
Now before this is torn apart, it's just a thought. Somtimes I only have time to fly for 20 mins or so.  This is a Gamey idea, yet this is still a game. And yes this could be organized in the dueling arena already, but that would be tough.  ok... have at it..

it's a nice idea, but sadly the majority of players don't want fair/balanced combat

Did you see my dad on dogfights yet?
I'll be seeing you face to face possibly next month.

I like the idea, it would be cool, I believe  FBCrabby has setup things similar to this in his custom arena, although most were AI's it was really fun! I think it would be fun to try out, however, I'd have to echo coombzy, most just want to pick from 20k in pony's or what have you.
