We have quite the "committee" here. Any volunteers?  I do have my $10.00 ready to buy in.

Yes. HT has made it clear that he is aware of the flawed game mechanics and that currently there is nothing he can do about it as they are working on the new update. Just be patient. I'm sure the new update, when released, will have all the fixes we want.

Whoa. A kickstarter campaign for a game that already exists. I'll save my pennies for any potential upgrading I might need for AH3 (which will likely feature dynamic game adjustments for the sake of environmental appeasement, if practical, for universal improvement). That is, until the community decides a 2 year graphic improvement that makes water droplets glisten better is more important.

How is this thread still turning?  Committee?  Nothing in history has ever been run efficiently by committee, lmao.  Yes, by all means hand the operations of the asylum over to the inmates....holy bajeezus.

BTW, I don't want to own a gaming company.  I just want to play it.

From what I understand about Aces High 3, that will be an upgraded change in graphics, terrain and ground objects.  maybe some other stuff.

This thread is about the players to control the gameplay as they see fit.  A Kickstarter campaign might be a good idea.

Funny that, it's how I visualized it as well.  Skuzzy getting a page on a beeper to come in and manually adjust the HQ strength with every map change.  Ha ha. 

and knowing the player base, we'd wait until 4am central time to reset the map each time.  A new catch phrase would also be born, "Let's hurry up and win the war so we can Skuzzy the arena."

It's a different genre and format where 'kickstarter' takes on a whole new meaning.

edit - I haven't heard anyone say the AvA should be gone, just that it's dead.  I've read many threads about possible solutions, and organized efforts to make it be populated - they obviously haven't worked, and for the 2nd time, I have no idea why, nor any suggestions on what could work.  I just think it would be a fantastic arena to play in every day if it had MA numbers is all.

I know the AvA is so awesome with 6>  or more players.
I love how close the bases are to each other.
I love the furballs with no icons, it is really intense.
You can really set up some nice moves with no icons.
It really is such a fun arena to play in.

There has got to be 3 or more people logged in at all times for the AvA to become popular. No one is going to go into a 0 person room.

As tough as it is for the mods of the arena, Id recommend at least 2-3 of you trying to be in the arena as much as you can during the whole day/night. That way people won't be entering an empty room and may give it a try.

Alot of discussion on the AvA arena. Good but not the point.

A player owned server and controlled by the players would be what they would want for the Main Arena.  2, 3 or 4 sided arena. Arena settings they want.  etc..
