Nothing wrong with the mindano map other than the lack of vehicle participation.  In my view that really needs to be fixed if possible. CV ops as a distraction is also a bit short lived due to the softness of the cv's and their vulnerability to the constant barrage of suicide dweebs. Other than that it's a beautifull map.  
     In my view boredom in the ma hasn't as much to do with the map as it does with the style of play.  As I've stated in the past I think we should turn the ma into a historical matchup type of arena 1 or 2 days a month to break the monotony. Unfortunately, thats not likely to happen thanks to a vocal, if unenlightend minority, who are deeply afraid of any change lest it become popular.

I think the map should stay the same and change weekly.  If I don't get my way, I will NOT quit.  "I QUIT" only works once and I don't plan to use it up on something trivial like this.

Keeping the same map would help in planning squad missions.  If anyone is interested, there is a topic in the Gameplay feedback/issues fourm.

Shall I remind the times when arena was reseted once per tour? When we had only 1 arena during MANY month?

Yeah, that was nice, now we seem to be playing Mindanao all the time, 98% of each  TOD.

Expanding on this, how about we having a countdown timer somewhere on the clipboard, starting the moment the arena is reset.  [The arena will reset in 5 days, 4 hours & 32 minutes].  Could make for some heated battles when the clock starts getting down to nothing as countries try to up their field count.

Brady,
Come to the many special events running just about every day now.  Main arena is just a place to have alittle fun in between the real test of pilotage in the Special Events.  If your good in the main, it don't mean squat until you can repeat your heroism in a special event.  ;)

OK Rip mabby I will :), I play for rank, so generaly I stay away from events because I like the stress playing for rank add's to my MA experence, and I just dont get that in the events. But lately I have begone to get bored in the MA because of all the furballing Minanado causes.
