Arena format cannot be changed

Post by Rsabbado »

The game was released after the voting options for next Arena season were opened. By consequence, the Gurus were not given the options to vote for next Arena format, locking it on how it is now, 2 players with only one car each and Paris Champs Elysees as the only track. The developer tried opening a ticket to BGA in order to allow Gurus to vote for changes, or at least to allow him to do changes at least for this next season, but had no response.

This Report was opened by player Roboky in order to try to reach BGA Admins to allow some change to current format, since most players seem to think it changes could make it more competitive. If you also thinnk some changes would be better, please upvote this report:

You right, this is a big issue!
Arena with 2 players single car on the most easy map is all but entertaining.
Better flip a coin as there is almost no place for any strategy or tactic, just luck.

The highest false comment about the game by rookies is that it's just a game of luck. Having this setting on arena is just playing in their hands!

To balance well between luck and tactics/strategy/odds is to have more cars on track! We all admit arena require a certain pace so 12 cars would not be the best. Somewhere between would be effective like 2 turns, 2 cars per players with 3/4 players on random map.

The current arena format is just about the worst way to showcase all that this game has to offer.

Thanks to everybody that voted on the Report. The Gurus were still unable to vote for changes to the Arena format, but thanks to BaronFraser, the game developer, it was possible to at least change it for a better format than the one was set before, with 1 more car, random circuit, random weather and car customization.
