Question

Is the game population so low that there's a 1 hour plus wait in the arena for at least half the day for all levels, or is it only 3 and 4?

I'm not trying to start any arguements or anything, I just have a curious question.

Seems the game population is REALLY low at the moment. Apart form that, the distribution across the factions is very much skewed towards 'Bots.
I'm seeing a score of 275 'Bot wins to 121 'Con wins at the moment for the missions in the last 24 hours, and 270 to 160 Arena wins for the Bots. I don't play Arena, but I'm sure I've been in about half of those 396 missions in that time, and a lot of them didn't even have 'Cons in them.

Same happens for the preds against both the Cons and Maximals. Rarely is there more then 1 or 2 Cons in a mission against the Preds. Maximal missions are almost always a free 100xp, which sucks, but compared to a 2 hour arena wait depending on the time of day or night, it's not to bad. Whenever I see the odd Bot mission, it always fills up, which is both good and bad.

Thanks for clearing that up for me though. I wasn't sure if it was across all levels or just level 3 and 4.

As far as I can tell, the wait is less for the 0-2's but not by much.

Guess people are taking it easy before we all have to start over for the new game - lets just hope Moggy doesnt keep us waiting too long.

3 months from when he signed on is what he said, which puts it November/December, right in time for the big holiday releases. Coincidence or conspiracy... :-?

I requested a faction switch, to help offset the low population.

I've noticed the lack of cons too. So basically almost everyone is an autobot or just slacking.

Then you should have gone with Maximal. They need some help.

No, in my dream, all races are equal. *cue music* All factions are fair and balanced and treated as equals. All factions of the Transformers race have a chance to participate in missions at any time of day or night and face opposition. All factions can enter the arena, if they so choose, and not have to worry about being timed out in 2 hours and not facing an opponent or earning XP so that they may grow.

Not as long as the Con faction is divided among Decepti and Preda factionalism. Granted, the Autobots seemed to have jettisoned their weaker bots out into the Maximal faction, but regardless. All Transformers were created equal in the eyes of Primus. Don't let Unicron into your heart brothers and sisters! ... Unless you're a Blendtron, then that's ok. Remember, as one race, we are unstopable! We are equal! Does a Decepticon protoform not start off with the same stats as a Maximal protoform? Does a Autobot commander max out at the same stats as a Predacon general? In the begining and the end, we are all equal!
