I have always wanted more from the Battle Dome. I have loved the idea of a Battle Arena ever since I played Final Fantasy 3. I want a huge crowd with a massive fighting arena where its not only possible to fight on foot, but also on vehicles. The Battle Dome in its current state is none of those things. Don't get me wrong, the latest additions to the area were definitely AWESOME, but I'm a demanding person, and it seems like the Battle Dome has wasted potential.
Archeus mentioned the BD being an underground war zone and the idea that has been staring me in the face the entire time hit me. Give the Battle Dome itself its own zone.
Instead of a small underground door that most underground areas have, make the entrance to the Battle Dome more like the entrance to Neocron or Dome of York. In the zone it is in it would look something like this.

The two entrances would not be simply archs to enter in, but sync points. That way the BD could be as large as it needs to be. (After all Neocron isnt exactly to scale either). In the battle dome the entrances would lead to the audience section which is ground level. The fighting arena would be underground and would look something like this.

This would allow for grande scale duels of arena proportions. It would definitely even be cool to have a Vehicle Depot (perhaps a bit smaller in size than the normal ones) so the teams could use vehicles as well.
The entire zone would be a war zone too btw. So what does everyone think?
