Arena Changes
      #149885 - 03/16/08 05:29 PM (74.74.248.205)

January 2002

Several bugs, abusive behaviors, and game balance issues have been addressed by a change in arena architecture and function. There are no longer two classifications of arenas; all arenas will function identically. These new arenas are be virtually identical to the previous dueling arenas. All new empires, will receive up to a $50,000 per nevday income subsidy from the NGC. This income replaces the often-criticized existing "free income" of unattackable A1 arenas. There are no autoclaiming arenas.

INCOME: All empires now recieve $50,000 per nevday minus half their income as a bonus to subsidize small empires and provide income to replace arena losses. For example, a new empire with no daily income will receive $50,000 per nevday. An empire with $40,000 per nevday income will recieve an additional $30,000 per nevday. An empire with daily income of $100,000 or more will recieve no subsidy.

ARENAS: The old arenas have been removed.

NEW ARENA CHANGES:


There is no longer a minimum BV for arena creation.
Arena size is now selectable.
Arena terrain is now selectable
Rep restrictions have been removed
Base prize values are fixed for each type of defending unit(s)
Donation mechs and vehicles are now valued properly in arenas
The attacker may once again bring up to 110% of the defending BV (raised from 105%)
Challenege arenas have been added. These are no-fee no-prize arenas which you may retreat from
???? arenas are re-opened to the public after 24 hours if nobody has won

Arena payouts fixed. Payouts where the loser gets a portion of the money wasn't always working properly. This should work correctly now, but note that the payout happens AFTER the arena claims (not when the loser gets kicked out of battle) and the money goes straight to the empire funds. This means you will need to really pay attention to see your prize added if it is a small amount

The Arena Help files have been almost completed. Players are urged to look through them for answers to their questions about arenas, arena combat, arena prizes and repairing units. There will also be some tactics advice printed there soon. Anyone who finds typos or has some ideas for the Arena Help should write to Ideas@neveron.com
