How you guys messed up on Planetside Arena

    Instead of making a whole new game and trying to cash out you guys shoulda just put the Arena into the normal Planetside game.

    You coulda had just a small gulag fight underneath the map in a little arena room so noone can interupt. You could use this arena room for all sorts of stuff. 1 player challanges another player to a Arena Gulag fight for 1 BC or 100 certs. Winner gets to keep the BC or the Cert. With a max of 3 a day so players cant cash swap on purpose.

    You could also turn it into a global event instead of a Player challanges a Player type of thing.

    10 minutes before an alert closes the continent you could have the top 3 players from each faction get called into the arena and have to fight eachother 1 by 1 until there is only 1 winner and the winner gets 300 certs. So it makes like a "Champion of the war" type of scenario.

    So retool the whole Arena idea so that players can challange other players to duels for bragging rights and also a champion of the war battle by summoning the top players of the war into a small, quick arena match.

    All players should also be able to turn an option on or off that lets them watch the championship fight in a small window in the corner of their screen.

    This will add a "sporty" element to the war and get players known so players recognize key players that are supporting the war and good at the game.

    It would probably be tricky but it would be nice to have an Auto-Camera that moves vantage point depending on where the 2 players are in the arena. So players watching the feed can watch the champion arena gleefully.

    And give the players the option to not just watch the Champion Match at the end of the warmap but also the option to also watch challange and grudge matches that people pay for to challange eachother for bragging rights. Also make it so you can challange your own friends or faction in the Challange Match not just enemies because its a bet fight for game money.

    You could make it on PS4 that players have to hold the "x" botton on the controller and press all 4 triggers L1, L2, R1, and R2 to turn the arena camera on/off.

    Then maybe you could also have a livefeed online of all champion/grudge matches in the arena underneath each map.

    I think as Call Of Duty warzone proves a gulag/ small arena built into the map is a good thing
