Title: Arena Full
Post by: FortyDog on May 07, 2007, 12:19:15 PM
Is there some reason that Aces High can't set a high number of available openings in each arena?  Their current sytem is pissing me off.  I got discoed while flying.  I log back on to find I can't get back into the arena.  This is not good HiTech.  We need a fix.

Almost every time I try to log in I can't get into the arena where the rest of my squad is, and that's really tuning me off from playing the game often now.

Hmmm if I can't get in a LW arena... pop out and come back.. usually changes fast. There are plenty of arenas to fly in... so I can always fly. Our squad is very flexible..... moving to where we can all get together.

Just a thought..tell ur guys that you can't get in from the lobby on squad
freq and ask them to switch to lower number arenas.

Happens to me all the time.

Can't get in the arena with the map i like.  Or where friends are flying.  Or with my squad.

Quite frustrating, I agree.

Wish HTC would fix it.

Why is it that you can change sides in LWB to help #s and then 15 minutes later switch to LWO for a mission with friends you can't change sides for 45 minutes? I actually missed 1 of the HARM missions a few weeks back because of this, so now no matter what the numbers are i usually don't switch on sundays just to make sure it doesn't happen again. I thought they were "separate" arenas. Just curious is all.

Because it wouldnt have any sense, second arena always will almost empty. Cap here for filling both LW arenas, not just for limit max number of players in each.

What???.........

I go to different arena's depending on two senarios.  One my squadmates are in an arena.  Two, a particular map interest me.  As for filling both arena's, solution is simple, place maps in both arena's people enjoy flying.  Also, why not have a pacific arena with pacific planes and a Europe arena with Europe planes.  I'm reasonalely sure that will divide the numbers in each areana.  However, I'm just a guy who loves Aces High.  I take the good with the bad.  By far the scale leans toward good.

would love to beg again for a auto log off feature if you havent flown..moved in say 30 minutes....other night 120 bish...80 rooks...80 knights....our eny thru the roof.....

bish 120     56 in flight
rooks 80     60 in flight
knights 80   53 in flight

so we had the same number in flight but the guys just sitting in tower had our eny thru the roof....

And if HTC coded the auto-logoff, instead of sitting in the tower, the guys who are now sitting in the tower hoping to get a plane they like (or just unfairly taking advantage of ENY) will hop into a crappy plane or vehicle and sit in the hanger somewhere away from the front while they check ENY to see if they can fly their choice.

Result?

A fix that don't fix nada.

I find that it is easy to avoid Shuffler and get into a different arena.
And who you calling flexible?

gives me a chuckle when people miss the point completely:p

the point was eny was artificially inflated due to inactive players sitting in the tower...sooo...

1) switching countries would only have worsened the imbalance because the bish would not only have eny to to contend with but now worse numbers

2)  the other arena was maxed out

:aok
