New Arena season corporations

[FrankJones]

Wait they didnt include colonies AND removed corporations?

Why are we still waiting for colonies..

We're not still waiting for Colonies. The colonies expansion has been here for close to a year.

The arena format for this season does not use colonies, but Arena is limited to exactly one setting each season, and more people voted to play arena without colonies than with colonies.

so, this is basically the same as last just with fewer corp choices, correct?

I ask cuz I misunderstood it the first time I played

profile picture checks out

Yea, I'm a known hater of point luna. Still shouldnt mean you should play some houserule.

All game settings are either official rules / settings or were approved by the game publisher.

Yep. Some of the prelude corps (and in particular Point Luna) are considered to be somewhat imbalanced, so gurus voted to have a season without prelude corps.

Colonies is unlikely to be voted in for arena because it has even bigger balance issues.
