The cap was a mistake, human error. They opened a single arena, that normally they don't allow to go over 450 so that is the default setting. They forgot to switch the numbers up to 850 like the TT arena.

Lack of attention to detail is the human error here ladies and gents.

Funny. the caps said 450 but there were over 500 in the arena.

Maybe someone doesn't like you.

I'm actually in the arena because I never logged out but I feel bad for everyone who can't get in because of this "oversight"

Maybe we should have split LW arenas with a cap system so this problem can be fixed :P :bolt: :rofl

Maybe they should get rid of the naive people who think it was a mistake and not done on purpose. What part of "cutback" do you not understand? Surely you know that these arenas run on different servers and it costs money to do that. Thus the kickback to one MA.

Obviously you know nothing about the difference between servers and arenas; you have no clue what you're talking about.



Quote from: Skuzzy
First, the server IP addresses, to be used for traces/ping plots.

Axis vs Allies, Dueling, Early, Mid, Late War Blue: 206.16.60.39
All WW1 Dogfight Arenas, Training, Late War Orange, Late War Off Hours, Titanic Tuesday: 206.16.60.41
Special Events: 206.16.60.38


Fugi gets it...

the game is spread across 3 server addresses. Even if they cut back to a single address they still could have run ALL of the arenas out of one server seeing as the ones they have don't run over 10% capacity.

Surely you know that these arenas run on different servers and it costs money to do that. Thus the kickback to one MA. Since that is what 98% of the people like to fly in and now some can't, then changing to 2 MA arenas and not having a limited Early and Mid War arenas which hardly anyone flies in (as well as the WW1 failure), would correct the situation. I wouldn't be at all surprised if they thought that if there was too many they could just fly in EWA, MWA, training or dueling.

Not worried. Plenty of room after World of Warplanes comes out.

I'm guessing HTC put that cap in place on purpose cuz the bbs hadn't had a arena cap whine thread for more than 4 days.

WTF?
Sunday night and the areana is still capped at 450? Nobody home at HTC or maybe they just don't give a damn?
Somewhere along the line this company forgot a lot about customer service and quality control. They've been lurching from one screw up to another. I really can't see initially forgetting to change the cap, but forgetting to change the cap and then sitting around two weekend days? That's just a sign of a rudderless ship.
Unless of course the idea is to keep the areana capped at 450. That makes sense if you've decided having more than 500 paying customers is a pain in the rear.
