Title: Arena Numbers
Post by: ntrudr on March 16, 2009, 02:20:14 PM
What's with the deceptive numbers you see when logging into an arena?

I see 104 in the Blue arena but when I log in there are only 32 players split 3 ways.

Are you serious?

Or, are you nit picking?  96 v 104?

If B, people logged off between the time you logged in and actually got into the arena.

It can take a minute or two, depending on your connection, to fully download the roster data in a busy arena.

Duh, how to you get 96 when you divide 32 by 3?  32/3 = about 11 per side.  I believe AH counts all the AI as players, maybe you guys just never noticed.  If you genuises are reflective of the average AH player then no wonder 90% of the attacks are HOs.

Well ...

All us geniuses know that there are no AI in any of the main arenas.

We also know that when you first enter an arena and bring up the clipboard immediately, you have not completely loaded all the info for that arena and one has to press the refresh button to reflect any new data that loaded after we opened the clipboard.

ntrudr is a long time Warbirds player.

For those who arnt aware, Warbirds in a desperate attempt to seem populated and alive, introduce AI into the arena - both flying drones and some gv formations that attack fields.  These AI show in the server list as players online. 

Ntrudr, there are no AI in the arenas. Whatever number you see in the lobby for each arena are actual players.  As you log into a server, little by little the players 'draw' into the list.  A 400 player arena will show 52/34/44, for example.  Hit the refresh button after a few seconds, or continually click it to see the numbers climb.

There is no shenanigans here - what you see is what you get, give or take the constant coming or going of players in real time.

Hope this helps,

<S>

Perhaps you should go back to fighting AI for your opponents. Seems you would be much happier. They are more predictable than the morons that participate in this game. Good thing you aren't participating. Sheesh.......(http://www.clicksmilies.com/s1106/spezial/Sarge/Whatever_anim.gif)
