New patch - 18-April-2014

Don't speak for "ALL" because we "ALL" did not ask for better rewards. Also just because 2 "pay to win" players ask for something you saying the rest have to suffer ?

Ok right, not ALL players want better daily rewards because tons of players, like yourself, do not like getting free coins and credits and rep every day. Forgot about those players, I am terribly sorry.

Old Arena Rewards:Well all asked for better arena rewards, and well, we got it!
Also MattP and Herby asked for a second arena where all players can duke it out and we got that too, sorta...

I didn't, I was happy the way things were. It's also important to note the forum is only a small cross section of the player base. Generally, it's only the larger players who like the new Arena, most middle ranked to lower dislike it.

I had an interesting experience, got a gem stake and then big players knocked themselves down to come and grab it. Yes, I even did as many suggested, stayed low. Seems there isn't any point in that either, after all I then had no chance of reclaiming it.

Now I don't know about you but I always considered the Arena a place where you have a group and you stay within in it. However, it's obvious it's about the stakes (or at least the better ones) and I'm sorry to say if that's the case then the whole line about it being better rewards and a better challenge is all fluff and bluster. The UA is a breeding ground for bullies which is a shame.

It was perfectly fine the way it was and yes I am a top ranked player that did not pay my way to the top. There are no extra rewards, only pricks you are forced to deal with now that you had blocked.

If you're a top ranked player, why are you so afraid of the UA?

[BestGameFaqs]

Who said anything about being afraid ? Read the thread and you will see it has been mentioned that UA is a downgrade that was forced upon people. Some of us are sick to death of the drama causing ego-centric idiots that act like they are 12 years old. We are in a different realm and block these people so we don't have to deal with them but now we are forced to deal with them. Many reasons have been posted why UA is a bad idea if you read the thread. I certainly am not the only one that thinks this.

If you're a top ranked player, why are you so afraid of the UA?

I love the new arena.
In the rankings you can test your attack against the server but here you get to see how the bigger guys do with attacking you.

Yeah i like that part of it. Love seeing those .... failed to defeat you. and seeing 80% against Boo. Gives me a good measuring stick of where I am in comparison to the other guys on the server. SUre it gets annoying at times when you lose a stake. But hey we all cant be Boo. But I have gained more then I lost. The daily rewards are awesome. If you were in top 10 you can get more now then before. Even with a 5 realm server. The guy who takes 5th gets more then he would have if he was #1 in old arena. SO I think they did a decent job of setting up the new rewards. If you got 10th in your old arena you still get more rewards at 50th/30th.

I guess we are spoiled in server 7, We actually cooperate with each other in the arena. If we have Gem stales we try to find some one on line to share them with. If some one shares gems with us we always let them take them back. After all, we loose nothing if we let them.

After a few days I don't see much difference anymore with the old arena on our server. Places 1-5 are taken again by our most powerfull guildmembers, a small competition between the rest of our guild with 2 of another realm. Sadly but true the first one of the 3th realm is somewhere around place 15 and can't get up.
For the last one the change is a loss for sure.

The 2nd realm is loosing activity cause the gap between them and us is getting bigger every day.

Conclusion for our server: almost dead again and already wishing for a new merger with another server.


Btw, fixing HP is still possible. If you could agree with all realms to set it up in there own arena, you can do the same in the UA. It stays the first 3 + 3 + 4 from the normal arena. If you power down in UA, it takes over the forms to the normal arena. Ofcourse, now 30 or 50 players need to show some discipline.

If you get a server merge (again) then make sure you dont ruin the fun for yourself by merging all top players into the same guild.
