Arena Season 2 - Games configuration changes (complete list)

[serf_tide]

A lot of times it's hard to get 3 player Puerto Rico going...why would you increase it to 4? I agree that it is more fun, but I've been caught away from the screen a couple of times just because it was taking too darn long to find a game.

Puerto Rico is designed as a 4 players game, and is the format for most real life tournament I have heard of. 3 player is slow may be because of players who prefer playing Puerto Rico as a 4 players game are not joining? Can only find that out with a poll

Why did you guys remove special landscapes from Terra Mystica this season?

Good change on carcassonne to do base game only - I don’t like the expansions and they make a long game every longer!

Saboteur would be better with Sab 2 instead of 1. Or increase the number of players to 6 and have 2 Sabs and 4 diggers.

We are following the official World Championship format for Saboteur (Tournament Rules option, see viewtopic.php?t=13163). Reading this again, indeed 6 is the preferred competitive format, so let's go for 6 players.

No more arena for beta games???

Yes, it should not have been allowed in the first place, it was a mistake (like many other aspects of BGA, we have had to evolve our release process really quickly these last months due to the surge in interest). Arena is available only for fully released "stable" games.

Thank you! This will definitely be better than what we have currently.

Can you please let us cancel the arena games which we had tried to start? Or maybe cancel them system wide?
