Training Arena should be free. It's a taste but not the full cake.

read down a little lower Dolbeh.   Where I quoted Butcher and Tinkles....  I need to see if I can edit the title of my thread because several are taking it in an entirely different direction.

While I support your initial reason behind the wish. I also like the idea of the TA being free for non-subscribers so we have more potential players to interact with.

 :salute

So +1 for the initial wish as well.   :D

While you're waiting for this you can use any map with an air spawn in a custom arena with killshooter off.

A free for all arena is definitely something this game could use.

On the off topic of a free arena, with all the free to play games coming out, I think a free to play kind of thing for AH2 would be good to get some more customers into this game. A free arena with limited features like how H2H used to be to get people interested into paying the $15 a month subscription.

again Nish isn't suggesting a free loading arena.

Nish: FFA can be easily re-created in a custom room.  The Few training map includes multiple air spawn heights within a bowl that would be roughly the same concept.  You would even have more control over plane choices by having the host remove those fast / cannon fodder planes that guys used to spawn in and do a couple of gun pass picks and then run.  The max of 16 players would be enough for an on-going scrap. 

Other than that you can easily amend the KOTH terrain with as many air spawns as you like.  It isn't difficult to do.

Once you have the map and learn the arena settings you can have full control over planes, icons and griefers.   Leave your PC running 24/7.   ;)

Wish granted!

I hope someone does make an arena..  I'd play in it.  Even if it was only temporary.

Definite + 1 on the idea as a whole

apologies for not clarifying in the initial wish as I wasn't advocating for arcade physics in an AH version of this arena.

it is an excellent idea for the guys that only have an hour or so to kill....in the MA with that time you almost may not find a good adrenaline pumping fight...

in an arena like this you would find many in that short time.

no ICONS would be even better...all enemy so NO need for them....

or maybe a setting that just makes the icon a small dot for those that have bad eyes or small monitors.
Well it would be fun if some of us weren't baby seals :bolt:

i have often thought of haveing a free-for-all at the tank town in the createrma-all 3 countries meet in the middle at the town...everybody says when ready...1 captain says ready-set-FIRE--fight for 15 minutes--then see who's left--it's something for just the heck of it..respawns will be limited to their spawn only till over--no firing till it's over...this is just an wild idea
