Anyone has managed to start a real time game on Arena this season?
If yes how long would you wait to find 3 other players?

sadly it is incredible difficult to find enough players… Currently it takes around 1h for me even in the main times. And the premium thing makes it even more difficult sometimes…

Premium requirment is not mandatory for arena, but switching to 4 is hard to start. Even previosly with 2 players I would need ~15mins to start a gameTomatensauce007 wrote: ↑16 April 2026, 10:40 sadly it is incredible difficult to find enough players… Currently it takes around 1h for me even in the main times.

Yes, 4 players is really hard. I fear that popularity of this game gets decreased when the people cannot start arena games, and then, even if next arena format would be again 2 players it will be a lot more difficult than last season. However, I already made the. suggestion on the guru page to make next season as last season with just 2 players. Also 4 players feels a bit random about who wins but maybe I'm just too unexpierenced with 4 player games.

Uhm...hmmm...I thought playing many games is condition to become a guru. There are streetcar gurus with only 51 games played. I dont know why you arent, you played much more games and also many games during short time. Maybe there is any hidden condition, I dont knowrinoceronti wrote: ↑18 April 2026, 21:01

Let's see: https://boardgamearena.com/faq?anchor=f ... agamegurus
* Be an experienced Board Game Arena user with at least 1 year of seniority on the platform. (No, less than 3 months old)
* Have a stellar reputation, corresponding to a Karma level of at least 90. (Yes)
* Play a lot! Be among the 100 most active players of ranked tables for the game in the last thirty days. (Probably)
Hardly a hidden condition, it's clearly written in the FAQ

When was your last real time arena game? I had my last at 5th may. The problem of not finding players became drastically worse. I'm now kinda forced to do turnbased arena games, which I don't like as much as real time.Tomatensauce007 wrote: ↑16 April 2026, 10:40 sadly it is incredible difficult to find enough players… Currently it takes around 1h for me even in the main times.
