Title: Why 3 countrys?
Post by: troxel on December 17, 1999, 03:39:00 AM

Why are there 3 countrys in the beta arena?  It seems that there will always be one country being attacked by two other countrys at the same time.  Why not just go with an even number of countrys?  Will this be addressed in the final release?

Then you will have 3 on 1.
I am not kidding.

I agree Pongo, but that is the case if you have 4 sides.  How about 2 sides!  I don't want to get into some rediculous historical discussion, but most wars tend to have only 2 sides, with multiple countries aligning with one another, not a big free-for-all!

I was annoyed with it in the WB Main Arena, and it annoys me here in AH!

Don't get me wrong, the game kicks butt!  I really only want to know how many others feel the same way about it.

Troxel, I completely agree with you:
2 countries is the best.
The 4 countries system in WB it's often a total mess!

Two countries is all we need.  At my normal flying time the arena is 49% Bishops, 49% Rooks and 2% Knights.

Just make it Two Countries and be done with it!
