Wow, what a game. That was a close one. Last three minutes, it could have been anyone's ball game. I'm gonna have to admit, I was lucky. If Andrews had better game shape, he would've went off against me.

Anyone did the new arena design and its upgrade? Just wondering, what do guys think of the new major update?

I think it's cool, but I'm not completely sold on it. Design is cool, but I'm not too high on the prestige aspect of it. As for the Merchandise, I wonder if it will pay off in the long run. I think if anyone is to do the arena, it's best to start off large, so there won't be any regrets in the future.

It seems like an interesting idea, anything to add something new to this game is a good thing imo. I have yet to upgrade, but probably will in the future if the merchandise increase has a major effect or not.

So far, it seems like the increase is somewhat high. From what I've seen in forums, it seems the 500k upgrade gave around a 8-10k boost with the 4mil upgrade giving around 20-25k. It's a surprise, the 2nd lowest upgrade isn't that bad and the highest upgrade is gonna take years just to break even.

For me, I think I'll rather avoid the 200k upgrade and 4mil upgrade (too cheap and too pricey), so I'll aim for the 500k, 1mil or 2mil. I think the 1mil choice is probably the best, but I might aim for the 2mil, since it has a nice design.

On another note, it seems you can't upgrade the arena design. So, it's best to just do it once, so you won't have to pay extra cash.
