Why do the Predacon's always win in the Arena???

Postby Knightrun » Tue Oct 30, 2007 7:44 am

Okay, can someone explain to a noob why the past several arena battles I've had against Predacons result in a Predacon victory, even though I'm 20 HP above my opponent at the end of the match??? This just doesn't make sense to me.

Kinda' discouraging when you win, but still lose.

Thanks.

ok I looked through all your arena logs and it happened twice in the 8 matches once by the Predacons and once by the Maximals it is a glitch because of the new factions you were not fighting either. It happens once in a while to all of us OS is working on it.

Ah, okidoke. Good to know. I just wanted to make sure I wasn't missing something in the game mechanics (like maybe damage per hit being factored into the final ruling or something). Thanks!

Besides, we've upgraded. Raid doesn't work on us. And Black Flag was a great band.

Why do the Preds always win in the arena?

Because that's the only way they'll ever win.

OS, don't worry, I've cracked it! The game isn't not accepting new teams, but rather the code has been changed to allow the Preds to claim victory should a tie-breaker arise, it's all part of their evil scheme in this war!

Oh, and the Maxis are in on it too, I've seen them, scheming.

If you need more info, meet me around the back of the bike shed, we'll talk more there

Obsession session complete. The real answer, it's a glitch, but hopefully OS'll fix it soon. Or rather, THEY'LL fix it soon, or else!

Funny, cause I must have a big boot to step on Con's since you claim to be twice or more than my size.

Hollow One: Explains why the cons win in the arena sometimes when they're not there... Because the con's can't win anything without us Preds there anymore.
