"That Arena is FULL, please choose another"

[ZetaNine]

A quick customer service suggestion to the powers that be...

1. I'm sure you've heard this complaint before

2. I'm sure this feature is intentional to protect the sanctity of the game in some way

3. Speaking as a person who typically has small windows of time during the day in which to sign-on and kill some planes for 20 minutes....and then get back to work or a meeting...it is ABSOLUTELY DRIVING ME NUTS not being permitted into an arena with action...and instead being defaulted into an arena that holds 350 and currently has 30.

4. I am respectfully asking you for a customer friendly solution here....and truth be told...I would not mind paying more for a "VIP FAST TRACK" option that permits entry into any arena I choose...when I choose....if it were available.  Money is not my issue.....time is.

Thanks for your consideration.

I like the Taco Tuesday method at the cap at 850.

However, I would say have the Blue arena closed and keep the Orange open at the max 600.  Once the 600 is reached, open the Blue arena so it would look like this.

Orange         600/600
Blue               75/120

or

Orange         600/600
Blue             175/240

and so on.....

Only problem with that would be it could cause "Squad Splits"

And Blue is only slow and boring in the few hours of the morning.  Other then that, there is action.  And even with 20 people, 13 of them are furballing.

And the rest are on the way back to the furball.

of all the problems I have, Im glad this isn't one of them

From euro point of view, i´d say those arena caps really suck.
It´s very irritating to get "Arena Full" message, when you know your friends are flying there and its capped.

I dont see any value of those arena caps working like they currently do, no reason to force people on 2 servers if there is barely enough for one.

[Shuffler]

At what point, in your opinion, is there not enough folks flying.

Well, usually earlier in the evening to around 8pm i would describe it to be quite "not enough for 2 servers"
Or do you think, that 200-300 is enough to divide into 2 allready ?

"not enough"....200 or below, but my chief complaint is centered when most I sign-on....and see 30-75...that is downright horrid.


as evidenced by the popularity of Tuesday's......there is never "enough".

actually 60 to 75 can be a great time....

Hmmm blue looks fun.

And how many people would be screaming about not being able to get into Orange then? Unfortunately there really isn't any other way to do it than the way they do it now.....they have tried many, and we all know that a single arena won't work. So we are stuck with things as they are.

I do like the idea of paying for a "fast pass" type of think.... not that I would pay for it, I always can find something to do when I get to log in. It would give those that just have to get into a certain arena an option.
