Main Arena Changes
« on: May 24, 2003, 11:45:14 PM »
Well, I see that we have to stick with one map for a whole week.  If you are like me you dont like some of these maps.  I personally hate the smaller maps.  I think making us play the same map over and over is going to drive everyone nuts.  I believe alot of people are not going to like this change.  If you feel the same way as me or even if you disagree I would like to hear your opinion on the subject.  

Reason:  I think this takes away from trying to take bases.  People would not care about taking bases and just focus on thier scores.  Now that cant be the point of a simulation.  Can it?  I mean what is the point of winning the war if it starts over again at the same place in time.  Do you do it for the 25 perkies?  No I dont, but someone of you might.  This is just my opinion

I like it it , agree that it might discourage folks from trying to win the war though.
Still a better alternative to same map for 3 weeks straight.

Maybe after NB changes Trinity and all works out for him in the reset time ---HT might be persuaded to go back to the old systym.

Why couldnt they just go back to the old format (Win the war the terrain auto rotates).

But also do a manual terrain reset on Fri like now.

That way you win the war the map rotates, but no map will be up for longer than a week.

I voted for change every 4 days. I think that'd be better but I won't gripe about 1 week, it's better than it was IMHO. There were times I'd log on once or twice a week and all I ever saw for a month was trinity. It and/or all other maps were reset in between or trinity would take forever. Now you can log on every week and see a new map. That's nice. Played AW for years on same map, didn't find it a problem.

The change is welcome if it means that we only have to live with infinity and pizza for a week.

Some people complain about change, and some people complain about no change.  Then there are some who don't complain.

Maybe it is a good thing if taking bases was not the only objective in the MA.  I like to have fun.  In the MA, it could be working with a large group of squads taking bases, or a squad mission, winging with someone, tanking, buffing, furballing, lone hunting, gooning..... etc.  The map we play on matters most to people who like to "land grab" or people who like to complain about something :)
