Maybe, say if you had an account you were allowed up to 16 participants.  Would be really great :).

why?  It's really much more fun with 600 in the arena.  Plus it would take a lot of arenas if you only let 16 in each.


:D

Can you not do all this in the Training arena?

You cannot load a specific map and newbies may interfere(they don't know any better).

I was involved once in some air races that were done in the H2H mode.   Nothing but problems with Noobs jumping in and trying to shoot down the guys in the races.   Got the best laughs of my life watching these idiots trying to shoot down racers while kill shooter was on LOL.  While many uninvited people did show up most were good enough to leave when asked.  H2H would be ok if it weren't for uninvited players that just jumped in and had to be booted.

Just set the room for 4 players if you only have 4 players and no one can enter cause it will be full.

Seems to me easiest fix here is password generated by the host. Without it you can't join.

HT might at least look at being able to do that if you asked him REAL nice and sent a case of Scotch.

Makeing H2H 16 player would be cutting his own throat IMO.

For squad practise, intersquad duels etc go to the dueling Arena, thats what its THERE for.

As for the TA, I'd prefer to keep that for working with the new guys who have lots of questions and need help.

Sixpence it was a squadron event, and the squad had 27 members.   The host did not know how many would show up so no limit was set.   If the uninvited people wanted to join in the fun it I think it would of been ok, but they just took off and started fireing away.   Still it turned into a fun night.  I sometimes set up a H2H arena just for the practice and for a change of pace with who ever will venture in.   I have had some pretty good 1vs1 furballs.   I just feel H2H people need to ask if an arena is marked private, or squad training before plowing in.

LOL as I said the squad had 27 people.   We ended up filling the 8 player limit.   Not knowing how many would show the host left the limit to the max of 8.  I think you misunderstood what I was trying to say :).
