A little late but as asked by the admin here: https://boardgamearena.com/forum/viewto ... 45&t=16560

a quick poll to know if you would like to have some change for the arena mode.

You can vote for 5 options.
I am limited to 10 options in the poll.

Personally, I would prefer that each Arena season have some change.
My preference goes to alternate between GT5 and GT6
Alternate also between long track and medium track (but 2 laps)
Random weather all the time (I don't know why it is sunny in arena... kind of boring)

I would prefer 4 players too but I understand that 3 players take less time.

There is just the players number it isn’t a choice (what i want), 2 players (feel more straightforward for competions) because it would make sense to a competitive quite fast and more easier to find 1 player than 2 players.

Arena mode is a competitive mode, telling that most of the settings should be same for everyone. While gt5 and gt6 could provide competition feeling, gt4 isn’t very good for competition (except maybe a strict 2 lanes track that only orange and red lights are indicated, could have damage at 4 all the time and in red’s parts if it 3) or maybe one day, provide three different groups (gt6 arena (3 lanes only), gt5 arena (3 lanes whit a 2 lanes part) and gt4 arena (2 lanes only) )

We need an admin to see this forum. I sent a message to @Sourisdudesert but not sure he saw it...

mhhh, I don'T find 2 players competitive... generally, the luckiest one is the winner. And for a racing game, kind of boring 2 players.

But I agree playing at 4 players instead of 3 will increase the time to play.

Right now, there is a battle between stay in GT5 and play random GT... I agree that I would prefer random between GT5 and GT6 and not gt4 ahah.

Most of the people want 2 laps in a medium track. The only thing is: I don't know how many medium are available (15 to 21 tiles)

If you want to know (random gt) option include all get options, didn’t see a gt4 arena though, but the random could give you gt4, just to notice. But anyway, it’s rare that gt4 get selected in random.
