Arena Tweaks.

Whilst performing the X4 event it has become apparent of some tweaks I feel would be that would beneficial to improve Arena PvP.

For the Observers:
<ul type="square">[*] Teams were given different colours (easier to identify at a glance)
On a tangent maybe even possible to give a team a option of putting in a team name on a banner to put with the colour that would highlight there team.
[*] A count down timer.
[*] Kill Score during the match.
[*] Score Sheet at the end of a match has a total score at the bottom of each team. Providing the totals score of each team.
[*] Faster Viewing Cameras[/list]Playing in the Arena:
<ul type="square">[*] Respawning, the intangible time needs to be the same for every respawn. I have found personally each respawn vary the amount of intangibility.
[*] Choice of Maps.
[*] More Map Options.
[*] More Fighting Options – King of the Hill, Capture the flag. Anything more than pure fights.[/list]
Theses are what i have found please add your own thoughts.

All of this, /Signed

Edit: one to add: Be allowed to set your own level cap on matches, so if someone is levelling a toon, they don't have a +3 level gap from their opponent(s) while keeping an essential power or two. etc

I approve of this topic.

I'd also like an option to disallow Set Bonus', because sometimes it's needed.

This. ^^

All of your suggestions are /signed by me.

Some good ideas there KS, even if some of them were poached

Very keen on the individual teams showing up as different colours for observers.. Would make watching much more enjoyable, rather than feeling like you're just looking at a swarm of identical fireflies.

Yeah ideas were flying about i thought i would bring them together and sugguest them. Not intending to poach them

I support all these suggestions.

I would like a detailed report at the end of each fight, something similar you to what can be found at the end of a game of halo. Would love to see the kill/death spread and who killed who most, how many assists, whats powers you got most of the kills with, that kinda thing. Would really help evaluate a match at the end.

But /signed for all the other ideas.

Nice like that idea not sure if CoH could support those details mind.

Never any harm in asking.

I'll also support these suggestions. and Xemulas suggestion too. (Damn you fixed levelcap, DAMN YOU!)

Totally agree.

I don't even USE Arena much and still want these.

They're basic quality of life options the system should have had in from the start.

Arena is actually a good example (along with the Auction House interface) about why I'm a bit dubious / worried about the forthcoming Mission Creator in i13. Cryptic / NCNC have never seemed to be very good at making decent interface controls and options for the features they add on, although hopefully they're getting better at it.

Although I feel PVP as a whole could use a re-look, although thats because I seem to try it when its 'Elite' hours or something
