Since many players are still upset because of time zone constrictions perfect solution is this. All time zones should have a decent time to play so have a arena for time zones. Take the top 20 players from each zone reward them with 5 favor points if they get there. Then the top 20 players from each zone will compete in the arena within a weeks time to let them build up there stamina and daily rewards again. The top person from that arena will receive 100 favor points. To me this would be the easiest solution for kano to do. That is why in the first arena the rewards for getting in the top 20 have been dropped. The ultimate reward would be the final arena.
Thanks Skywalker. Can you give a reason why you do not like it. I am trying to help players who constantly say it caters only to us over in the u.s. not the players overseas.
I dont like the idea of having seperate arenas for seperate time zones and then, a whole another arena that would be dedicated to far less players than the other one. I just dont like the idea in total. I do have a suggestion to help those people maybe tho. I guess i should go post that now... ill have to check for my callender keys first tho
Sy John... I think your hearts in the right place but this idea is not working for me either. the reasons as follows. 1. they are already rotating start times...eventually everyone will get a decent start time 2. there is a boat load of diff time zones in the world...thats a lot of qualifying arenas, some time zones may not even have 20 players 3. I think it would actually complicate things with so many qualifying arenas. a. For starters where would u list all the diff arena start times? B. Once diff times were listed...would be up to players to figure out whats best for them? thats a scary thought....lol C. Would the game figure out for u what start time u should have? D. What about players such as myself who have multiple homes/cabins in diff zones...or even players on vacation in a diff time zone E. Some time zones would have considerably more players than others, pulling the top 20 from each really wouldnt be fair F. How about players that play multiple Kano games? It already seems like theres to many arenas....could u imagine having 4 more if u play all kanos games? Sorry.. but Im gonna give it a 5 as I think it actually complicates things. I think if players will just be patient they will all get there shot at a good start time
Jon,you've had many good suggestions and many solid arguments. This just isn't one of them. Believe me I HATE having to agree with Pimp,but he is right on all counts. Only difference is he gave it a 5 I'm giving it a 1.
Hey its fine what you guys rate i know i have hit's and misses. But just throwing out some ideas for the arena. Because i can see what some players are complaining about overseas. While yes they have rotated the times. But it only seems to me in the united states that it has jumped a couple hours difference which doesnt impact me yet. But to others overseas i wonder what it looks like on there time zones. I know someone has a idea for it they just have to put it out there and we all have to agree its a good idea.
There are many things that come into account weither or not you can play in an arena. Life intrudes. The issue is... like the one i had... I got to play in an arena.... but it was the 3rd one.... and here i am in a game... that most of the other players have had some experience with it... know what they are doing, and built a strategy. Im in there blind as hell. so when theese folks that have shiz to do... line thier life up to actually be able to play an arena... They're at an extreme disadvantage. I dont believe the alternating times is suffient... Maybe if there was an arena more offen, but as it is right now... they're comming along once a month... it could be next year before some folks even get to see one. much less know exactly how valuable playing in one can be.
From what has been said soon as they are completely out of beta testing them. That they would look into having arenas for lower level players also. So that is coming sooner or later if that was what you were getting at about next year for some people. But i think its every two weeks they are doing them. But if you do them to much the players will get burned out. Me i enjoy it because i sometimes do have empty fight lists or i hate pounding on the same players for hundreds of levels and not being able to say hey sorry but i am trying to progress in the game and you yield good experience so i keep hitting you nothing personal hit back or beat me also. But in the arena its fair game 100s to choose from good experience all around.
I could have sworn it has been a month since the last arena... Maybe its just been a hell of a long 2 weeks.
There is currently a time zone discussion happening here which i've responded to http://forums.kanoapps.com/showthread.php?7962-Battle-Arena-Discussion-(Round-4-unofficial)
Well how about the time zone for daily gamer points? It never gets changed. 2 am in my time zone. Just sayin'
