Ever since i got the game I was never able to get in a match.Not happy.
At the time you made this post, there were several people playing CQC/Arena Death Match games. Drop in on the discord channel (link in my sig) and you can see if people are playing or ask people to come and join a game.
This would certainly help as you would be guaranteed of a match in a short time. I think they should start with putting NPC pilots in there to fill the gaps and restart development on it when they can see more players are coming back to it.
Didn't FD address this with multi crew where they basically said: 'Yeah, if you don't play it, we're not going to improve it or work on it?' That's what they did with CQC and that's what they did with Powerplay.
CQC was nothing more than their attempt to cash in on the COD market. The fact they removed it from sale as a stand alone game should have told everyone they had given up on it.

Yeah there's so much that could be worked on. But the content is just as deep as the first Quake. It had so much potential....
There's a bug in 2.3 where they can't be clicked with the mouse - joystick and keyboard work fine.
This bug is (finally!) fixed in 2.4
I think we may get updates in the near future. Especially to draw in the console customers for Xbox and now PS4. Fingers crossed. Fly safe
FDev could have easily integrated Arena into the mission system since SLFs were released in 2.2 (I think). Since they have already integrated some of the CQC structure assets in the game, all they would need to do to add a new mission type that offers special rewards for CQC combat, like elimination of X ships or other metrics similar to Massacre missions do.
Ship requirements would mandate a Fighter Bay equipped ship, similar to surface missions require SRVs.
One key reason I hadn't bothered with Arena is that it incurred minimal or no in-game benefits, ranking or influence as far as the main game progress goes. I would go out on a limb here and wager a lot of players felt the same way and simply ignored it.
It would offer a nice variety to expand a much maligned mission system. This seems like a low-hanging fruit that has been there for the taking. It could even be integrated as a chain mission to an Assassination mission, like kill Pirate Leader in CQC combat at XYZ facility within, etc., etc.

I still like my idea of having it as an equivalent of prison following repeat offences, where inmates fight to regain their freedom - which may even involve doing shady backroom deals to throw matches or stuff like that.
Don't mind that at all...
Oh, you don't wan't to be punished for your crimes by being forced into CQC? Well, then... Be good, or good at it.

It needs more to bring back players. It haven't changed since release and that says a lot.
