AVA request

[james]

CM's, can you guys set for a week a two sided conflict with all allied planes open on one side and all axis planes available on the other with LW arena radar and icon settings? Just to try this for a week? Any 2 sided map with land vehicles available the same way. Give the c47's to both sides since there's no axis "goon".

we can, how many people will come if we do this? which map would you like? would you like all planes, or just European theater planes, pacific theater,etc or all of the above?

 sounds like someone wants a two sided lw arena.

It'd be a good way to get more in here, but for  once im  gonna go with the "old hand" AVA guys and say it will attract the wrong crowd or at very laset  not give a good Idea  about what ava is  about. Maybe doing what was asked  except  keeping the icons  at the current ava  standard  would do more and  be a better  representation of what  it's  really  like in AVA.

[Beardawg]

  Yes!!  set the AvA back to where it was years ago and stop screwing around with the se-up.  There were squads playing in here. Now just a small group trying set-up for them selfs. No one wants or likes the present set-up.

hmmmmm.  yea, let's go for it

it will attract the wrong crowd or at very laset  not give a good Idea  about what ava is  about.

"Wrong" crowd...what's the "right" crowd?  At least there will be a crowd, eh?  

What's the AvA about?  Two-sided fights in an arena where you can play however you want?

It would be interesting to see how many come over...and also to see how lopsided the numbers might get when there won't be any 190 vs 190 or Spit vs Spit, etc. fights.  I'd also suggest a medium map set up to require 1000% bases ownerships and no map reset so the arena won't get porked.

Icon range; 3k for both is fine, although it turns some people away because they're used to 6k and are afraid to try something different that might make them actually think and/or communicate while they play.

[trwagner1]

Sorry didn't see that.  Wrong crowd.  Sorry, next time I'll take a bath and not eat any beans.

Pretty broad statement.    Got a list of specific names and their inputs/ideas?

 this would set this arena back to nothing more than a 2 sided ma. it is a bad idea. we have something different and unique. we have the most fun arena in the game. that will all be gone if this happens.

It's been done before, a few years ago.  Brought quite a crowd in the first few nights, then they all went back to their chess pieces in the MAs.

OTOH...don't see how it could hurt to try it again for a week.  The arena might pick up a few more dedicated WWII types.

 do we want quantity, or quality?

What's this we stuff?

Are you implying that somehow the AvA is some sort of exclusive club and that certain players aren't welcome?

Sure sounds like several of you would prefer to keep the rest of us holding little lanterns in your yards.

Not cool.

 not at all. we welcome all. but leave the arena alone. if someone wants to come in and try it, i'd welcome them. just don't expect it to change to what you've already got is all i'm saying.
