Name change for CT?

I read something a few days ago about this. Was it just speculation or rumor? In any case it could only help the numbers that we see in the arena.

It was a request by several players to bring more players into the CT and by changing name, giving them a better idea what it's all about. Hope we can get it.

"Combat Theater" sounds like a furball arena to me.  Not a very good description.  I agree, a change is needed.

I think a name change to boost attendance in the CT is worth trying.

I wondering if it should be called an "Arena" just like the others, rather than a "Theater".    The "Theater" part seems to have mislead a few people.   Also, I think the most important characteristic that sets it apart from the main is that its a two-sided, Axis v Allies setup.

So, Axis vs Allies Arena?  Worth a try?

Thanks Sabre. I am sure that most of us here who like the CT and would like to see more people in it. Think that Axis vs. Allies (or something to that effect) would be a great name for all the great setups you guys give us.

I don't think it should always be Axis vs. Allies but themed plane sets available to all sides sometimes.

L'Arène Vide?

The CT might be named improper, but it’s the draw of the MA that kills it from the onset.

Introduce new release planes there for X amount of days prior to the actual full feature updates; they will come.

‘They’ may even like it, (why wouldn't they ask yourself?) filling it up regular.

 HTC achieves free Beta testing, (BF110? Guns to name one) and free no hassle marketing incentive no hoopty animated Scenario .gif could ever hope to accomplish.

You heard it here first.
