Oh I getcha.  You mean like what they had in FR there towards the last (and in the early days).  Ya, dunno if the Strato's would want to compromise any more than the Quaker's though.

HTC doesnt need to waste their time making something that already exists and is never used.

Ya but the problem is it's a Dueling arena, not a furball arena.  Set up all the bases in a sort of circle, each third being home to one of the chess pieces with a big flat area in the middle and you've got a furball arena.  I'd wager there'll be more numbers there than the CT nightly within a month tops.  With all the map making talent in the community I can't imagine making a big flat wheatfield being all that challenging.

I would prefer a separate arena, as I never liked the fact that the Atoll was made uncapturable in AW BigPac, and much preferred the furballers to have their own arena...  :D  Anyway, how could we "win the war" if there were uncapturable fields in the MA?  :p

If HTC decides to change the name of the DA, then i hope they change the name of the CT to something different too.

Heres an suggestion

1. Main Arena (the current Combat Theater)
2. Fluffers Galore (The current main arena)
3. Fight Town or whatever (the current Dueling arena with modifikation)

:D

Did you even look at the DA map?

There IS an area on the map that has THREE bases in a CIRCLE with water in the middle- it ain't gonna get much flatter than that.

And it's still empty.

I have aggreed with posts like this before however it wouldn't stop the whinning.  They whines would just change to "perk this" and "perk that" and so and so is cheating cuz he shot me down.

If you want to stop the whining, the studmuffinball arena should only have 1 base and 1 (unknown) type of plane.  Killshooter in effect within 5 miles of the field to prevent vulching.  Then noone can screem about La-7s and N1ks because everyone will fly the same plane and the only thing that will matter is your skill vs the other pilots skill.

Even with that I'm sure Laz would find something to complain about.

that is why there should be another objective to win the war besides capturing bases.  Just takes another form of measurement.  honestly, I would like to see something else in circulation together with the one we have now.

Post edit:
One comment to everyone... and also this is my wish too... I really think comments like this one is rather unimaginative.  We don't have to can ourselves into one objective.  As pointed out here, the game is evolving.  It is for us to make the suggestion to HTC on how we would like to have the game evolve.  I have suggested my idea... Suffering from the BigPac Burnout Syndrome If you have any comments let me know.

It's too small and it's sharing space with a bunch of other stuff.  Not the same I tellya... I'm talking about a     d e d i c a t e d        furball arena, advertised as such.  The concept is not new and HAS worked before.  As it is currently in AH... it's     not     working      at       all.  <<
Could it be the furbies while whining about strato's all the time actually DEPEND on the strato's to create furball situations?   Hmmm.... point to ponder.

Yeah, they could just set aside the special events arena...or the old main arena and put the WILD WEDNESDAY map and let them furball there.
