[VC] Weekend Arenas

    We've had a number of comments from players who found it challenging to participate in Wednesday Battle Arenas, and suggested that moving some events to a weekend might work better. To further explore this idea we ran a feedback survey regarding the Arena schedule so we could get a clearer idea of the interest in a weekend event.

    Responses were pretty heavily in favor of including a weekend slot, so we've established a new cycle where every 2nd event will be held on a Saturday, and lined everything up so it won't overlap with other busy events such as the Guild Wars or Raids.

    The next Arena will take place Saturday, May 9th at 10:00 AM PST (this is taking the place of the May 6th Arena that would have happened otherwise)!

    So the next VC Arena WILL overlap with PC Armada Wars which will be going on at the same time on May 9th so those who play both games will be scrambling back and forth with those particular "major events".......at least on Wednesdays there was nothing else conflicting. It's hard to believe that a majority of ppl wanted this on a weekend day when some of us already have wars every weekend.

    I did give input...I said I didn't want Arena on weekends, because we already deal with a war every weekend.

    Events within the same game always fall in different time slots so there is no overlap there, however there simply aren't enough days in a month to ensure that the other games don't overlap with each other. Our content team tries their best but unfortunately we can't set up the schedule so that every game on every network doesn't come into conflict every once and a while. :(

    Any chance to add more Arena achievements? Most of the players finished the current ones more then a year ago.

    The only achievements we have planned for the PvP events are the ones for the Wars. No extensions to the BA achievements are on the horizon.

    really? "most" of the players have gotten every single arena achievement already over a year ago? i find that hard to believe.

    Arenas have been around for a few years it is not so hard to believe,that any long term player has not gotten them.

    I've gotten all but one of the arena achievements and I only play every fourth or fifth one because they always seem to be at crappy times for me. I'm quite sure many folks have long since gotten them all

    are there any stats on this? I would be very curious to know what percentage of the player base has gotten ALL of the current arena achievements. especially considering that not everyone can participate in every single one.
