Anyone else find the Arena 51 gameplay...
« on: April 01, 2011, 04:55:04 PM »
...super addictive?

The FM of the Claw forces everyone into a turn and burn style fight because it's impossible to BnZ in these things. I also find the weapon balance to be perfect. :aok

If HTC had the man power, they could make a very, very addictive mini game and sell it for a couple bucks through steam. :joystick:

Not me.

Sure, quite fun for a few sorties, but not anywhere near "addictive". Just like the current incarnation of WWI arena or the DA lake ;)

It's addictive, but I usually leave after 30min. Not realistic, if you know what I mean.

The HTC crew has done an EXCELLENT job on the Arena 51 and the claw. :aok

I wish they'd let us know what they modeled the claw on.

With this type of coding already in place---how hard would a Korea Arena be?   :D

It's fun, but expect to soon see 200 blow up with, "You couldn't have done it without the mines, I totally had you but you were just a noob and dropped the mine"

Then as the ultimate April Fools joke, HiTech should code them to self destruct several minutes into the flight.   :rofl  It would be a great way to remove a lot of built up perks from the system.

I'm pretty sure the claw has less in common with korea jets than our 262, flight model wise.

They modled the claw on, well, nothing.

How hard could a Korean Arena be, modeled on nothing?
