Re: Warcraft 3 Patch 1.29
The question is, can w3arena use this patch? probably cant so it wont affect us. Tyrant is right. And aarni, why do you dislike arena that much? you wanna go back to bnet and play with hackers? February 22, 2018, 09:10:21 am |

Re: Warcraft 3 Patch 1.29
The question is, can w3arena use this patch? probably cant so it wont affect us. Here is why you are wrong: - * W3A admins are completely brainless (what would be better example for this than their autoban system?) --- calling people brainless is not an argument, itīs just your biased personal opinion of what you think of them. Now, personally, I wouldnīt call people who can manage to create another platform identical to battle net in order to safe this game "brainless"; in fact, what they did was the honorable and deserves respect. If you disagree with the direction they took years later, fine, but insulting them like that is just unnecessary. Furthermore, you point out this "(what would be better example for this than their autoban system?) " and later on this "Autoban system (did i already mention this?)". At least explain why this is bad, not just throw it without any grounds. The autoban system is probably one of thebest things theyīve done since last year. It excludes losers who either hacked or behaved like complete morons during their time in wc3arena. Imagine if some immigrant goes to your country and starts behaving the way he wants, without respecting the rules of your country, shouldnīt he be deported? and shouldnīt your country have a process to avoid any person who doesnt deserve to get access enter your country? Same thing with arena. For example, Iīve managed to get 3 users from other serves ICCUP and bnet get into arena by contacting the admins and following the procedures. The autoban is rightfully justfied, it keeps dickheads out of the game. Low player base mainly because admins had no clue what they were doing (W3A had much potential) --- You do realize those of us who still play this game have been doing it for 10 years or more; hence, this game is for those people who just want to remember old times, jump into arena and play few games a week. It was probably never meant for the platform to expand and get more players, new players. The way I see it it was all about keeping that small group of people alive, probably few thousand players. There is no need to expand and get more players. If you want a huge community with new updates or whatnot, go play Overrated or Wow or some new FPS. Admins have been talking 2 years about the ladder reset but it never happened. Ladder reset is one of the most basic things but they don't even have a coder who could make that happen. --- Who cares, itīs not even real ladder where there is a worldwide tournament at the end of the season like Blizcon did. As long as you jump on arena and find a game within a reasonable time, itīs fine really. Ancient 1.26 patch. New 1.29 patch is the final nail in the coffin, nobody wants to play 1.26 after this. --- Yeah, Iīm sure you were eagered to play the useless 1.28 patch blizzard launched. Now this 1.29 at least has some relevant changes, but whoīs to say arena admins wonīt include it if they think itīs actually worth it. Personally 1.26 is fine, blizzard stopped caring about wc3 since 2010, you think 1.29 is gonna make any difference, like it suddenly will become battle net from 2007? Itīs going to be the same desolated platform filled with hackers where search times are just ridiculous after you win 3 games in arrow. Very unstable server, it has been down almost everyday lately. --- Yeah, I bet they have the same resources as facebook or some other major servers to run the platform smooth 24/7. If the server is slow, then play some other time. Whenever I jump on arena, I have no problems with lag; in fact, itīs always running smooth. Only times it crashes is when there are big tournaments and people join in masses, but after 1 hour or so it gets back to normal, so itīs just a matter of waiting. Arena is the best platform atm, it saved the game when it was once dying to brazilian hackers and long search times. We should stick with it to support a community of worthy players.

Re: Warcraft 3 Patch 1.29
I mostly consent with Cumulo here. Not everyone might agree with all decisions the w3arena head admins made, but it played a huge role in keeping Warcraft 3 alive outside of China for half a decade. I was (and on paper still am) part of the w3arena admin team and know they've invested plenty of time and efforts to administrate everything. Many people seem to think that it's just a click to reset the ladder or implement a new patch, which it isn't. Ultimately, head admins showed too much ego and too little understanding for the needs of the community. Pro-active and mutual communication never was their strength. Also, after Pad left, there was no more ressource for developments or ladder resets. We can be happy that there are alternative as Netease and hopefully Bnet again, but I think it's unnecessary and childish to insult w3arena admins and the lag-free platform you were able to play on for years without paying a Cent.

Re: Warcraft 3 Patch 1.29
@Dovekie battle net was great from 2005 - 2009/10; after that it became a nest for hackers. Now, for FML wc3arena works fine, I donīt see why I would come back to battle net when wc3arena delivers a better experience (at least for me). Initially, in 2012 or 2013 I didnīt like wc3arena because it used bots from the Netherlands or Europe so I had a high ping and wasnt able to play smoothly; so I continued using battle net and putting up with map hackers and disc hackers in bnet tournaments and ladder. I probably stopped playing battle net when after winning 2 games in arrow in 4v4 RT it would take hours to find a game; not to mention teammates would either go afk or simply leave to find games faster. It was basically a shitshow. February 22, 2018, 11:23:08 am |
