Don't play a single game in S11 so that 343 know that we want changes. No one play Arena at all. It's been 6 months since Arena was updated. We need something done about it now, and the only way we can show 343 that the settings suck is to not play it.

Arena always sucked anyway.

The population is so low i'm sure 343i doesn't want to put the time and effort into something what isn't doing well and has always had a low population since the game came out.

Sure it might bring back some people in Arena but no update will bring back enough people to make it worth while for them. That's how I feel about it.

Pretty sure its been more like 8months-11months. Unless you count adding Rebirth and Select and also removing Rebirth.

I've been disappointed with the arena since release. There is no persistence and no way to really show off your rank. I never quite understood why Bungie didn't just find ways to deepen (if that makes any sense) the Halo 3 ranks. Provide more of a breakdown and such, instead of the arena idea.

As if Arena will ever be fixed..

I stopped playing shortly after they took Needle Rifles (and Doubles) out of Arena.

arena was gonna be my main playist in s11. since i missed other seasons thought i'd try it out with some people who already have 1% in it.

They updated it to 85% bloom, not ZB.

They also ignored EVERYTHING else that it needs.

Anyone who claims the AR takes skill ought to shoot himself in the head. Preferably with the AR because they'll most likely miss with any other weapon.

I'm going to play Arena for the next 2 seasons to make my 3 recent seasons filled with Onyx's.

There are reasons for why it has such a low population now.

There are also reasons why its never had a very large population to begin with.

The 343 forums suck. They're full of retarded kids and mods who got butthurt in the B.net forums for being told that they're bad.

No, that's backwards. They should invest time in the playlists that have lower populations, and leave the higher-populated ones alone as long as people don't adamantly request a change for it (in which case, it should be tended to first).

They should work on the lower population playlists to try to bring people back. People don't play these playlists because there are serious problems with them; if those problems are fixed, then the population should go up.

Why should the playlist that consistently has 20K people playing it be slightly updated? There were plenty of people that played it without these changes.

Arena has been dead for some time. There are few top players that even play anymore. I wanted arena to be great, but neither bungie, nor 343 has been able to breathe life into it.
