No.  It was tried then not now.   

In other games it worked fine.    The conditions used to say it won't work don't exist right now.   The conditions of the game now actually support a two-sided arena and work against three.   But we will never find out.

I say pack up those studies and send them to HiTech. HiTech loves to consume new information.

Don’t worry about it.   If you don’t know by now I can’t tell you.

I am sure a look at arena numbers then vs now is the only study he needs in order to understand the point I am making.

On a related point: The idea that a three-country map offers more opportunities for more players to find a fight compared to one with two countries is absurd. 

If we are gonna ride this into the ground so be it.   It’s not my business to run, I’m just a customer.   But...

When two sides was tried more than twenty years ago, there was no ENY.

you know how much hitech would pay for this information if vraciu could prove that 2 countries are better than 3 and would attract a lot more people.  :noid :furious :t :uhoh :devil :x :banana: :neener: :bhead :evil:

just posted a lot of emojis cause there isnt a sarcasm one.  well there is one  :banana: :banana: :banana: :banana: :banana: :banana: dance baby dance  :banana: :banana: :banana: :banana:

dude this is the kind of info people keep secret that bugs me.  for example, i flew a 262 yesterday on squad night.  have flown maybe 4 or 5 262 runs in my ah life.  did you know that 262 doesnt have wep?  i didnt know that.  nobody ever bothered to tell me, i was counting on that wep when i did my pass  :bhead :bhead :bhead

Tell me please, because I don't know any difference between then and now.

Look, I am on your side here.   I am not trying to be a jack wagon and I think you know that.  But...

You know full well what has changed.  Some of those factors have been addressed (and ignored) in this very thread. 

It seems you’ve made up your mind on this issue—which is your prerogative.    If you’re interested in what I have to say I will gladly have the discussion via PM.   I’m not gonna’ go head to head on non-level playing field like this one (your forum), though.   I don’t want a PNG.  LOL

 :noid

I’ll leave you with this general thought: You’re boring a third of your players to death much of the time with three sides when they could be in the midst of a fight all day with two sides.    You lose little to try it out on a limited basis and see how it goes.  Someone suggested a TWO-SIDED TUESDAY for example.  Could be fun.  ENY would be a good motivator for side balance that even WBs didn’t have IIRC.

The numbers will support two sides.   That can generate interest, action—FUN—just like the new radar system has.   When numbers again support three sides you can go back to that. 

With two sides EVERY SINGLE PLAYER CAN JOIN THE POINT OF ATTACK.    This is not the case with three sides, where one country is often totally ignored by the other two.   (Unless someone makes a map using my “Wheel of Fortune” concept this will always be a problem at current player levels.)

Twenty YEARS ago?    Goodness.   

I guess nothing has changed since then...?  Not even ENY?   :headscratch:

I think he stated that there was no ENY then.
