Arena Players with bad reputations!! :(

Post by Riserblue2000 »

I notice some Arena games have players with very bad reputations allowed to join eg <50% some even less than 30%. Once the game starts, they usually leave when they are losing as their previous reputations suggested. Is there a way or in the future to NOT allow players with reputations lower than 90% from joining Arena? It just ruins the Arena experience, thanks

Sadly no, if it was the Standard Game settings I would tell u to kick em out of the starting game page but problem is that you can't actually chose who you play with on Arena.

The other good thing about Arena tho is that the Timer is at a default value so if they leave or outrun the timer you are still the one in the right here because you don't lose anything in terms of getting bad points for it.

Change your opponent's reputation to be minimum 75% in the game settings, accessible by the cog. Hope this helps 😊

Well the option is there if you look, but I've never used it myself.

Those option settings are identical whether you have Simple Game or Arena selected. The question is whether the preferences are applied in Arena games, not whether a cog appears when you have Arena selected.

So far it appears to work. I'll update if the filter doesn't catch someone it should.

If the option is there, I'd assume it to work. Otherwise, just submit a bug report.

I use the reputation filters for arena games all the time and they seem to work.
