Since the launch of Arena Combat in Star Trek Fleet Command, we’ve been thrilled by your enthusiastic participation and invaluable feedback. Your insights are instrumental in shaping the game, and we’re excited to announce some adjustments that will enhance your Arena Combat experience. These Arena Combat updates are designed to make the feature more accessible and enjoyable for everyone.
New Arena Start Times for Greater Accessibility
We understand that finding time to engage in Arena Combat can be challenging due to varying schedules across different time zones. To ensure more players can join the action, we’re adjusting the Arena start times in each region:
- Europe (EU): 14:00 UTC
- United States (US): 21:00 UTC
- Asia-Pacific (APAC): 05:00 UTC
*Runtime will be 8hrs
Why This Change?
By aligning the Arena start times to 16:00 local time in each region, we’re placing the events outside of average core working hours. This adjustment provides a more convenient window for you to assemble your team and dive into the Arena without conflicting with your daily commitments.
Streamlined Matches: From 5v5 to 3v3
Organizing a full team can sometimes be a hurdle, especially for smaller alliances or those with members in different time zones. To make it easier for everyone to participate, we’re reducing the match size:
- Previous Match Size: 5 vs. 5
- New Match Size: 3 vs. 3
Why This Change?
With smaller team requirements, assembling a squad within your alliance becomes quicker and more manageable. This change encourages more spontaneous gameplay and ensures that even alliances with fewer active members can fully enjoy the thrill of Arena Combat.
Positive Changes Inspired by Player Feedback
We heard you! Your feedback is at the heart of these updates. We strive to create a gaming environment that reflects the desires and needs of our community. These adjustments are a direct result of your suggestions, aiming to:
- Enhance Accessibility: More flexible timing and smaller teams mean more players can join the Arena.
- Improve Matchmaking: With more players participating at these times, matchmaking will be faster and more balanced.
Thank You for Your Continued Support
We appreciate your dedication and passion for Star Trek Fleet Command. Your feedback is valuable to us, and we look forward to improving the game together.
See you in the Arena, Commanders!
Live Long and Prosper,
The Star Trek Fleet Command Team
