Then why are there so many people playing WOT?  There is no goal there except to grind your way to a good tank.

Isnt that game free?

There is the ability to create custom rooms now, you can have the dedicated GV arena you crave.

yep

Then that's why there are 6000 players

AH doesnt need anymore rooms to split the population than it has now. And the key to improving the tank aspect of the game is not to remove the historical threats it faced. It needs to improve the strategic aspects of this game and quit pandering to the "I WANT MY ______ UPDATED" wieners.

If spawn points didnt show up on the map and players actually had to recon an area to locate the enemy ground forces, then you wouldnt get bombed so much.

the only thing about wot that caught my attention as "cool" was the damage you could see on a blown up tank. there are a just a few variations per vehicle depending on what knocked it out, but it was enough to catch your eye. in all other aspects it's mario tank. isn't the most people you can have in a battle something like 30?

there's the answer for the op.

If you all say so....I know alot of AH's players enjoy gv'ing and I know it could be alot better easily.

Or we can continue waiting for every 3rd map to come up that has 1 good spawn.

And we will never see numbers over 600 people online at once again.

Oh well.  :)

I started a similar thread looking to improve GV'ing.

http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/index.php/topic,318871.0.html

I would be interested in a GV-only arena but I don't see that happening. Too many people want to fly once in a while. They also have friends and squads that are always in the Late War arena and won't want to leave them. There just won't be enough people dedicated enough to get any decent numbers in a GV-only arena.

I think a good solution is better maps and no icons for GV's. We have a few maps that facilitate good GV battles but too many that don't. There is no reason the maps can't be edited to facilitate GV battles without affecting air combat at all.

I think we should get rid of the Wirbelwind.  That would really help with the bombing problem.   :)

Why not get rid of the bombs?  That would really help the tankers.  :)

Make your own GV oriented arena; if it gets enough attention night after night, I'll bet good money HTC will implement a tank only arena.

Custom arenas are great for allowing HTC to see what is popular, truly a market tool.

The river towns on the TwinRivr terrain were made specifically for tank battles if anyone is interested.  The bridges are even destroyable.

and many of Great Tank Battles have taken place on this Map Already. Short drives to town and you even even range the other countries base's from the other side of the River. So for all the Gv Lovers out there this would be a good map to use

Open your eyes because we do see those numbers spread out amongst all the arenas.
