Arena Player Limits
« on: April 19, 2008, 05:16:12 PM »
I've noticed that the player limit jumps around a LOT.  A week or so ago I saw the LW MA orange with 100 player max.  I've also seen it around 600.  It is really annoying when I get kicked out(when someone gets on our PS3 I will get kicked out for some reason :huh) and can't get back in.  Does anyone know how it chooses the limit or how I could make sure I'm on at a time when it is high.

Its not even worth a wish!

The LW arenas are set up to increase or decrease in cap limits due to how the other LW arena population is working. It is designed the try and keep the 2 LW arenas evenly populated. If they didn't have the auto adjusting caps, one LW arena would always be full at 450 and the second would have low numbers except at the busiest times. Is it perfect,\? nope, is there a better way to do it? nope, but if you can come up with an idea that hasn't already been suggested, send it to HTC.

My question is why are there arena limits at all?  If we pay to play this game, we should be able to play in whichever arena we wish.  I'm not trying to be a smartass here, just asking why the arenas are limited.

Because with out caps everyone would go to one server. Which would defeat the purpose of having 2 arenas.

Kinda defeats those arguing about how one big arena isn't more popular than a couple of smaller ones, heh.
