Well, I guess the Arcade really is pointless now, isn't it?
Besides the occasional dumping of minerals into the gates, I see no point of even stepping foot in the Arcade.
The new Missions tab on top of your screen allows you to start/join parties of any gate wherever you are.
I don't really have anything against this but I take a step back while realizing this and think:
"Oh my, have we gotten lazy."

EDIT:
Totally forgot about Krogmo's store located to the left in the Arcade.
Thanks Rangerwill for reminding me, haha.
BUT I guess the main point of the Arcade, which was a way to access the Clockwork gates, is meaningless now.
I mean, Sullivan and the Krogmo stuff could've easily gone to the Bazaar or even the Town Square since playing PvP doesn't really have anything to do with the Clockworks at all.

the arcade is a superior

the arcade is a superior interface into the clockworks than the mission interface.

1) the arcade shows you the population
2) things actually fit on the screen better. In the mission system (at my resolution) the right pane doesn't quite fit right.

Since my computer loads super fast (SSD and a new i5 processor) I don't mind the 30sec wait to get into the arcade, but if I was on my laptop I probably wouldn't walk in there.
