I hear many people complaining about their fights being interrupted in arena. this got me thinking of another idea. Making a new arena. This arena would have no restrictions but only 2 people could enter at 1 time.
That was anyone who wants to fight in a 1 vs. 1 battle, they may without interferences.
Tell me what you think of this idea below.
I like this. It could be in the same building as the 4x4 PvP area as well, as it wouldn’t need such a huge floor.
good idea cuz with a 1 vs 1 battle you wouldn’t need much space. at times i wish there was a 2 tile area to fight so lag would be affecting the battle as much.
Some people are over-competitive. Here is a on-topic story of why this is true.
Once upon a time, before I was banned, and I was in The Arena 70% of my time, a lot of people complained or fought because they lost, some may blame a loss on lag, or snap out for being knocked out while sleeping, people often forget that The Arena is for fighting and not much else, you don’t go there, go in, Rest, and expect someone to not knock you out. Not you Richard but mainly people in particular. There would not in fact be any use for changes if people had to apparently complain about The Arena. But everything receives complains, and like Arena, most of them are just whining. As for some people having a fight, I guess I can somewhat support that, or maybe being able to challenge a person directly rather than saying “Hey man let’s fight, meet ya in Arena!” and then a high level user walks in, owns both of them and walks around rampaging destroying everything in sight. I somewhat support that, most users are okay with it, I had a few personal interrupted fights like with my brothers, said brother would be attacked we’d jump the person interrupting us and get back to the fight. Until a change happens I can only recommend to have those one on ones when nobody’s really in The Arena, and to be honest, I also advise to NOT tell people you’re having a one on one, because maybe if you annoyed them or disregarded them they’d try to make some way to mess you up, such as interrupting a fight.
Also, two people allowed in at a time, I can already see people sitting in there not doing anything, trolling people that are attempting to enter the Arena for a match. Let it be, it only takes being calm in the head to deal with that sort of thing.
In conclusion, I agree to an extent and disagree to an extent, there shouldn’t be any special thing for two people, but there should in fact be an option to challenge someone directly and have a private PVP room or such for it. Maybe in a single hidden map, you challenge someone get warped to that map and there be, at least five small PVP rooms only for two people as you suggested, I think that kind of thing would work.
Jay’s post sorta gave me an idea.
What if there was a challenge command/system implemented? For example, you could do /challenge -username- here to send a challenge request in the arena. They can either accept or decline, and if they accept, both of you can enter the arena and the only attacks that will hurt you is eachother’s. That way, others can continue battling in the arena and you can fight uninterrupted. Ever wonder why I didn’t mention when the challenge ends? Like is it after one round or three? Well…
There could also be a /unchallenge command or something that will end the challenge. It makes things perfect for those who want to have multiple rounds without typing the /challenge command every time.
nice idea
There are positives to both the “Limited Arena” suggestion by Richard G and the “Challenge Command” suggestion by XxSorraxX.
It could be fun since you would be able to see all the action without a watch command, since it’s only 4x4 tiles. That’s all the positive spins I can put here… :’:
The Challenge Command allows you to challenge players separately without someone coming in to take the place of the other challenger in the Limited Arena. Also, it would take place in the main arena, so you could also take a friend with you into the arena and just watch the battles unfold from the inside of the arena (similar to the “/watch” command). And finally, you would have larger room to escape AoEs that the opponent uses, unlike the Limited Arena’s 4x4 tile layout.
The problem with both of these suggestions is that they are only limited to “two” players. What if you wanted to challenge a team like CTF, where you are separated into two teams? Then it would be extremely fun to join a team and just get battling. Or maybe have a free-for-all against the two teams, not limited to hitting anyone on each side or any other players that didn’t join a team. They could just put in /jointeam A or /jointeam B (or something like that) and have fun battling. They can leave the teams by putting /leaveteam or by exiting the arena. Of course, the “/challenge” command could still be implemented, as well as the rooms that MrJustified suggested, where they are hidden rooms for each challenger.
Finally, negatives. As I stated before, I don’t like that it’s just restricted to two members for these suggestions. I feel like the challengers could be expanded to the amount of four for a free-for-all, or maybe the teams I posted earlier. Also, I dislike that the Limited Arena would be so restricted with the space to dodge attacks, as well as two people just sitting in the arena, not allowing people to come in and fight. For the /unchallenge command that was suggested, I could also state that maybe it could be referred to as “/endchallenge” instead so it fits with the command phrases that are already used. The challenge could also end with exiting the arena, allowing the score to be finalized on the chat.
For those that thoroughly read this, then props to you! If not, then a TL;DR section will be below:
Limited Arena:

My Suggestions:
thx for summing it up it really shows our points.
We had a Tournament system that was in the works for some time, but it has been on hold for a while… Most of the suggestions in this post were planned mechanics for the tournament system that would give more variety other than our current Arena’s…
Sadly, we have had other priorities, and the system itself would take quite a bit of time to make from where it is now…
… That is really all I can say on the matter, most of these PvP suggestions were already planned features years ago, we have just had many other priorities that are constantly pushing the development of that system back.
ok I understand. staff had the ideas planned but wanted to do different things like dungeons and sprites.
