Possible Situation:Arena is full
« on: July 01, 2002, 10:09:22 AM »
I came across this once before, over 550 folks were online, couldn't get into the MA.  This was a week after 1.09 was released I believe...I think this version will be the biggest, the best that HTC has put out...similiar to that of V1.11 in Warbirds...I'm guessing instead of the norm 400+ online, we could see the MA maxed out for prime time, especially Fri/Sat nights.

Now its time to create another arena that has a RPS?  Actually use the earlier war A/C?  Or just be happy with the CT?

Have most patches included an increase in the numbers allowed in the MA?  Can't remember.  Agree that we'll probably see it maxing out at 550 just after the release.

Rip,

While you are looking at your crystal ball (or "Magic 8-ball"?)...I'm wondering if the update/downloads will be off the same pipe the servers are on?  Can't recall if it was for 1.09 but I, too, had a hard time getting into the arena back when 1.09 was released too.

LePaul, face it, connections will most likely be atrocious for a week, or they were after each new release, not sure what Skuzzy's doing these days with the servers...

I've heard talk of bumping the limit up to 1000 users once the servers are relocated.  I wonder if they've been relocated yet.

I suppose there are worse problems to have.

I know another MMP sim out there that would give their left testicle to have such a problem to overcome. ;)

Im almost positive that this version will get sent out to the major mirror sites like Fileplanet, etc

What is most important to me is that server move that was supposed to happen. Although for the most part my connection is fine, i hate to see other people log off or get ticked because theirs isnt

My thoughts are this:
With the anticipation of V1.10, possibly the best release (and comparable to "V1.11" in WB's) yet, old players re-newing accounts, and the guys leaving WB's in droves lately, this neighborhood could get as busy as it did when AW closed it doors...
