Can someone explain how the arena cap numbers work?
Lately I have seen an arena with 100 pilots capped at 100 pilots while the other arena has 130 pilots capped at 200 pilots.
How does this make any sense at all?
I understand trying to even out the arenas but this is the opposite.
There is already the position that if an arena is full and your squad or friends are in the full arena you should get them to abandon the battle they have been fighting for hours to move to the open one with you.
After all a battles a battle right, who cares how much time or effort you put into one just go start another. Or if you can play with the friends you have made, this game is not about relationships its about virtual killing.
This alone is a frustrating position by the powers that be.
Capping an arena with less players is frankly mindless in my opinion.
Please help me understand the logic.

Was there ever a reply as to being able to shoot right thru a tank without damaging it? Because you still can. Mostly right where the turret meets the body.
Don't say oh you missed. Because you do see a little spark, the round does not ricochet. It goes thru the tank and hits the dirt on the other side. This happens at close range. If your far away you cant see it.
If I understand it correctly the tank controls were modified to allow players with no Stick, Throttle, rrudder pedals to have something to do with just a keyboard.
A great idea to increase the number of players and subscriptions. A game without income dies so I'm all for the change.
However the tank battles are still sometimes at 4k (longer if a tiger is shooting at you). I thought one of the changes was to make the tank battles at shorter range?
Example:
I'm a new player to the game, keyboard only. I finally learn offline to drive and shoot a tank. I go into the live rooms and shoot a enemy tank. My round goes right thru him. He kills me in one shot.
I respawn. Some guy 4k away kills me that I cant even see. I respawn, the 4k guy kills me again. I respawn, I hit an enemy tank 3 times, he kills me in one shot.
Is this fun? Would I stay?
