    My thoughts on the Battle Arena

    It is a vast improvement on the original where it would start while you were in bed and you woke up to discover that you had died in your sleep. The version immediately prior to this one was probably the best suited for multiple time zones as it gave everybody who had signed up, the chance to fight. The drawback to that, from a mid level players point of view, was that if you played for a while it became a real drain on resources (which I suppose was a good way of filling the Kano Koffers [605 attack, 14 defense]). This latest version is a refinement of the last except that once again like in the bad old days, you have to be lucky with the timing. Consider a Battle Arena starting at midnight:
    • You go to bed at 23:30 (half an hour before the start)
    • You wake at 07:30 and spend half an hour getting ready.
    • You leave home at 08:00 and journey to work/school.
    • You arrive at 09:00 and spend the next 8 hours being told what to do.
    • You leave work/school at 17:00 and journey back home.
    • You arrive back at 18:00 after the one hour journey.
    • You boot up the computer only to find that you are dead.
    I know it sounds a bit far-fetched but it could happen :)

    In short, you need to give people the chance to play. Cut the Sudden Death phase down to 6 hours so it maintains the same ratio it was for the 4 day battle. Battle Arena was only that long before because the contest could not end until there was only 1 player left alive but now with the scoring system, this is not the case. That means that the sudden death phase does not need such a large proportion of the time.

    I would also like to know the reasoning behind not allowing people to buy their way back into the fight during the Brawl Phase. If you only have a 20 minute window to play and you get knocked out it would certainly be worth your while to spend a favor point to get back in the game.

    My other gripe is with being attacked by and having to attack, Viking. People have to spend time picking perfectly good aliases. I would have thought that having everybody taking part being called Viking causes more problems than it solves. How about a system where once you attack someone you get to see their alias name? That way you can avoid repeatedly attacking that guy called Viking with 10 billion health. It would certainly help prevent this if everybody was given some kind of rating similar to Guild Wars so that a Class C Vikings would be able to tell beforehand that the person they were about to attack was a Class A Viking.

    Finally, I can’t really understand those people who want to go back to the original Battle Arena system. They all seem to say, because its better, but they never seem to explain why.

  5. I also find it very confusing that finishing in the top 10 you get a multiplier on strength and xp but because when you got killed there were more than 10 left in the arena we didn't get the benefit of the extra strength whilst attacking, and where did the extra xp go??

    Battle arena used to be fun... Complete failure now. Will never enter it again. And, as I watch the results more and more are not entering either. It's a shame that you and your "team" are slowly but surely phasing all the old players out... Sad day.

    I am saying they should have the game start 1 am PST also. Cents some of us it already starts at 1 am at time or later in the night. If your in the right time zone then you don't have to wake up throw the night for the start of things. But all of the others they don't mind. We wake up in the middle of the night or just stay up.

    Hello VC players! I have never played VC (and frankly I do not intend too), but I thought I would drop in and give you my input about a game that I do not, and never have played before! However, I do play Mob Wars: La Cosa Nostra, and would like to say that I am a bit upset about the Battle Arena starting right in the middle of the Syndicate Wars - if you are not familiar with the Syndicate War, it is similar to the Battle Arena, but you play as a team with your entire Syndicate/Faction. Both require MUCH Stamina, and having them overlap can really put one in a bind, and I found myself doing just about ANYTHING I could to find more Stamina and/or level up! Anyway, hope everyone is doing well in VC and enjoys my Post here about a completely different game. Happy Holiday's! :D:p:rolleyes:

    They should make this fair to everyone with bad start times. Cents it's not right one part of the world always has good start times and others could see things start throw the night.

    Something is going wrong with the saved list in arena, it wouldn't let me save after 2. Other's saying if leave page come back saved list is entirely wiped clean.

    why dont they make it so the first 8 hours based on points to see who wins. And the next 16 hours based on just sudden death last one wins

    If they did that, then the people that play all day will win. Also those would be the very high level people. Many people that revive in the first 8 hours don't stay alive that long. Also don't forget you lose points when you revive. If your able to stay alive and make those points up that's good, but hard when there are people getting over 200 kills. Then in sudden death it would go right back to the old BA with the very high level people deciding on who wins.

    well, in 10 days, BA starts (for me) at 2am (will be asleep)-- so I would be dead when I wake up- sudden death at 10 am- no sense in even joining!! so no free EXP off me this time- GL to all with their 70-80K attacks & 200 kills
