JB88 Basically said what I'm getting at HT. You see it as a couple changes, but those little variations and sub sets are the part that is frustrating.
I also think that the view is very different from the end where the money leaves the bank account than the view on the other end where the money arrives.
HT, I'm going to go a little out on a limb here and I'm not trying to be a punk, so I hope you don't think this is meant as anything more than a simple illustration...
By any measure I can use (player scores specifically) you don't get a lot of time to play aces high in the online arenas. Last month, you got in about 2 hours.
But I'm sure you put in tons of time doing the admin stuff and keeping it running. And I appreciate that.
So your vision of what is 'fun' I would suspect must be largely based on feedback from the community?
But if the feedback you're getting really is the majority opinion, how come splitting the arenas resulted in two packed LW arenas, one EW arena that gets maybe 10%, and a MW arena that gets maybe 25%. How can there really be so many people complaining about the LW, and yet when given a choice they play in the LW anyhow?
(Don't get me wrong, I dig MW, but its a drag that there isn't more attendance there).
As far as side balancing, I understand your motives, I really do. But the queue thing is awfully intrusive. Does the 24 hour rule still exist for changing teams? Because if I change my whole squad over to another team and then the weight goes the otherway and I am enqueued there later in the evening after having tried to be a good citizen, if I can't move again, I'm going to be unhappy.
Anyhow, its not my intent to rag anyone, you know your business. But sometimes it feels like you're trying to balance numbers on a spreadsheet, and the real fun of playing the game has slipped your mind.
Thanks for reading.
