Title: A "quick skirm" arena
Post by: Skyguns MKII on November 05, 2018, 06:14:38 PM
Im thinking of different "game modes" if you will with different objectives and here is one I came up with.

An arena that allows you to dogfight in a never ending skirmish. You automatically airspawn at 10k alt starting at cruising speed at X distance away from the opposing  team using fighters that historically fought. Once killed you instantly restart the same way... fast paced and fun with promised action.

Already available in the DA.. top right corner of the map.  Not sure when or if that feature was shared with the community, so i can see why nobody knows about it.

Quite a bit of fun actually.

Yeah, I guess he was saying it just auto-spawns you right back in.  Yeah, it is only saving a mouse click, but I'm lazy.  :cool:

Its looks too complicated.

Don't get me started... :old:

A furball bowl over land would be better. Show off that nice terrian. The water problem really hurt the furball lake during the switch.

Plus it's boring to fly over and look at.

why do you want a new arena, you have the DA forgot what its actually called(game with drawel's)  where up to 16 people can fight. but like skuzzy said you are welcome to build you're own arena.

Good point. 

Maybe it's all the same plane?  Maybe it changes each day?

And probably it's just an area of the training arena with special behavior.

Planes that fought historically. Almost like a axis vs allied squad v squad. Perhaps when one entire team is wiped out the next round of aircraft would change...

make it like a random death match.
Alternating plane sets.
1st round Spit1 vs Bf109e
2nd round La5Fn vs G14
3rd round Ki84 vs F6f
Maybe do some random match ups

Spit16 vs Yak3s

Tempest vs F4u-4

Hitech PLLLLLEEEEEAAAASSSEEEEEE!! We need a fighter bowl arena separate from the match play arena. And the match play arena needs to allow players to choose who they want to fight. Not being able to choose who you are fighting, or who you want to duel with is extremely irritating. This setup is simply not working well!
