Well this will most likely become a big thread, so no wasting time and let's get straight into these suggestions.
Survival Games:
First I'd like to mention this thread by Jordanzz: https://www.cubecraft.net/threads/survival-games.180539/ wich I took some inspiration of so his points may come back in this thread.
- Add Golden Apples in Overpowered like the Voting-menu is saying,
This was mentioned by Jordanzz in his thread, when voting for OP it's saying it contains a lot of gapples, but neither did I or Jordanzz ever see a Gapple in-game when playing OP.
- Remove / Balance Flint&Steel, TNT and Lava Buckets,
Again something Jordanzz mentioned I can 100% agree with, these 3 items are just really OP especially in Basic as it's already a pain in the ass to deal with in Normal Mode. Personally I'd like to see Lava and F&s to get added to OP only and keep it out of Normal and lower. TNT can also be ridiculously strong, but a bit less then fire imo, I either want this to get removed, moved to OP only aswell. Another thing I'm also ok with is adding Blast Protection Gear to the game as TNT just does so much damadge...
- The Wolf Kit,
This kit is pretty OP... The wolfs constantly hit and damadge you dealing (A LOT of) damadge making it impossible to properly fight. I believe this kit MUST be nerfed to having only 1 wolf. The wolfs should also die when the opponent dies as it happens every now and then I survive with a small amount of HP after a fight, just to get cleaned by the surviving Wolfs...
- The World Events..?,
When the SG Overhaul was announced World Events were introduced. Awesome! But they are pretty bugged on the map Underwater and Ruins. In the thread Joe told us there would be a Zombie Apocalypse on Ruins, has anyone ever seen any kind of Zombie on that map? Same with Underwater, I mean the chat does say ''something is happening'' but NOTHING happens!! I mean the wEvents are fun, a zombie apocalypse to survive in sounds awesome, the meteor shower in Jurassic is also pretty fun. The lightning storm in Seasons barely does damadge and is only really noisy and should do something.
- Make the warning Teaming is not allowed more obvious,
I honestly get annoyed so much by teams in Solo Gamemodes. Do you really think everyone reads the buisy chat when playing? You barely notice the warning: ''Teaming in solo is not allowed''. Rather then having this warning make it pop up on your screen like in MinerWare, this way they can't say they ''didn't see the warning''.
These were the Survival Games Suggestions and again go look at Jordanzz thread, now on to Arcade:
Arcade:
- Why has there never been an Update anymore?,
I rather wanted to post a good looking picture of Arcade like I just did with Survival Games BUT I can't as there hasn't been an Arcade Update anymore in ages! I mean the last Arcade ''Update'' there ever was was back in August 26 in 2015. And that wasn't even an actual Update! All that happened was Super Craft Bros receiving a new map! can't believe Arcade has never been touched anymore since as it's still a very popular gamemode!
- Being able to vote for CTF-Mode or Kill-Mode in Paintball,
It sucks you are being forced to play one mode on a map you like. I mean I love CTF and I love the layout for CTF Maps (with exception of Flowers), but I like the layout of Kill-Mode maps aswell! I want to be able to play Kill-Mode on CTF Maps or CTF on Kill-Mode maps. I'm pretty sure enough Donators would appreciate this.
- Quick Map Select Armour Stands,
With the new lobbies having those armour stands to pick your favorite map I think Arcade should have this aswell as it can take so long for your favorite map to appear.
- Balance Super Craft Bros,
Since the last ''Update'' Arcade received was in 2015, the server was still full 1.8, with 1.9 being released the kits are way too unbalanced. Not to mention Blaze and Skeleton are your main win kits.
- Add possible Vote Options / Modifiers to the Minigames,
Higher Staff should be able to be creative enough to make up Modifiers for some minigames as Arcade Games can get repetetive after some times.
This was all for Arcade. While we are talking about being ''Creative'', let's head on to FreeBuild,
FreeBuild:
The Update thread says it's back and bigger, wich I can agree on. I do not agree it returned better.
- Reduce the Prize to buy / upgrade any plot,
Getting your plot starts with 1000 Points, and in return you get one that's really small wich is not worth it.
The next Upgrade costs 1000 Points aswell I believe, and the next one 1500 Points. Then you get a decent size 72 x 72 wich is not worth 3500 Points. Then the final size is 122 x 122, wich is 5000 FREAKING POINTS! Honestly! I mean yes, doubling the size of a decent plot should costs more but FIVE FREAKING THOUSAND! It takes so much time just to be able to collect all these points. The amount of points required should heavily be reduced.
- Remove this Diamonds System,
The Diamond System makes no sence. First of all, all Staff plots get in the first page. Yes Efcluke's plots are amazing and deserve the top 3 but let's take Rubik's Halloween Plot for example. It's very small, has a bit of parkour and is not detailed that much. Yet somehow it comes in the top page, why? Because he is staff. Then you also have 2 plots of Andyschofie wich are big but ALMOST have nothing on it. Yet somehow it's top rated because he's Staff.
Outside of the Staff Plots the most worthless plots gets top rated aswell. I mean the most builds are just parkour our EXTREMELY POURLY detailed plots wich don't even deserve to reach page 100. A while ago @Pegozo invited me to her plot, and for once I was legit impressed. She built a giant Mega Charizard Y, and it was legit one of the best FreeBuild builds I have seen out there! So Pegoze had been advertising this plot for around a week.
Back to the diamonds, the top player plot is just lame parkour wich has 3500 Diamonds if I'm right. A week of advertising for her amazing plot only got her 500 DIAMONDS! Crap parkour gets 7x more Diamonds while her plot had 50x more effort and detail. The Diamonds are just not balanced as only the bad plots receive top page.
- Host Building Competitions again,
Last Halloween Building Competition was fun, many people used FreeBuild to make awesome creations so they could build for a prize. But what happened with these competitions? I mean we didn't have a Christmas Building Competition! Why!? These things keep it alive and attract people to play FreeBuild.
- The complicated Friends system,
First of all, why do friends have to be online in order to add them? Also why does the plot shut down when you leave!? What if you want your friend to be able to continue building? I also think the system should be more easy to use, just add a /plot add command, no more struggles! This is the most easy way to fix this issue. Second of all, why can only friends be added to your plot? I mean why can't I add some strangers to my plot? Getting griefed is at your own risk so why not do it?
This was all for Creative, now let's move on to a small Sky- and EggWars suggestion.
Sky- EggWars:
- The Team Warning,
Like mentioned in Survival Games, the warning against teamers in Solo Gamemodes should be more obvious. Rather then a small line of red text add a clear warning like the MinerWare text, no excuses they ''didn't see the warning''.
- Rebalance the SkyWars Kits,
As for now only Swordsman and Iron Golem are the most used kits. Yet there are so many other kits that never get used. The kits NEED to be buffed, (with some exceptions).
As I rarely play EggWars I can't really give my opinion about those Kits.
With these small suggestions gone, back to bigger suggestions. MinerWare Time!
MinerWare:
- Allow Donators to vote for the Boss Game,
With EULA so many things already got taken away from Donators. Voting / Modifiers make the game way more fun! But voting for what microgames will appear might be a bit meh... so why not allow Donators to vote only for Time and the Boss Game?
- Speaking of Boss Games,
As most of us might know the Maze Boss Game got removed due to it sometimes being impossible to complete. And I mean LITERALLY impossible, there was no exit! I'd love to see this Boss Game return as it was fun and requires no PVP.
- More Microgames,
I'd like it if there would be so many microgames no game would feel the same, very short but that's all I suggest for new microgames.
- The Golden Nuggets Minigame,
When you kill a zombie chances are pretty high only one person will receive all the nuggets with 2 people ending up winning by turning in 40+ nuggets. Rather then letting it drop, I suggest when you kill a zombie the nugget gets added to your inventory. If you helped damadging the zombie you won't receive a nugget, only the one dealing the final hit.
- Remove pushing effect in Parkour & Eat Cake,
When Parkouring to eat the cake it's impossible if you don't start the parkour in less then a second. Not to mention if you mess up the first time you're done for since the pushing effect doesn't allow you to properly retry the parkour.
With MinerWare out of the game, let's go to PVP shall we?
PVP:
- Allow Punch / Knockback III, IV and V items in Custom Kits,
Why aren't we allowed to enchant any items with these enchantments? Why is II the max and can any other enchantment still go to V? I see no problem with it as most of the Custom Kits already are ruined with full diamond kits. Some kits can be made even more fun with Knockback / Punch III+ items.
- Add a Bounty System to FFA aswell,
I think the Assassins Bounty System is almost 100% succesfull. Why isn't it 100% succesfull? Because when you start with basic gear your bounty could be a full diamond person that has a team of 4 people. Yet in FFA everybody has equal gear and teams are less likely to appear. Adding a Bounty to FFA aswell can be fun, just running around looking for this one person in a server of 50 people. I think it should give 5 minutes for your bounty and after 5 minutes it will select a new one. You should receive 8 - 10 Points by killing a Bounty immediatly after killing him.
Another quick suggestion for a gamemode, now on to the last one BlockWars!
BlockWars:
- The Summoner Kit needs a buff,
The Gear of the summoner kit is really bad, I mean even combined with it's mobs most kits can beat it. The kit needs to be balanced, example allow 2 mobs to be on the field, shorter cooldown or possibly summon 2 mobs at a time!
- Ninja Cloak Ability and Arrows,
In Core Mode Ninja Kit can be gamechanging when it's Sudden Death. Nobody can see you while you chip away at their core. BUT THEN!! You get hit by an arrow and this arrow takes minutes until it disappears making the Cloak Ability useless. Arrows should be removed from the Ninja kit ASAP when the Ninja gets shot otherwise it's a bad kit.
- What happened to the map ''The Bridge'',
In the last BlockWars Update, https://www.cubecraft.net/threads/blockwars-core-mode-and-more.133680/ , a new map was introduced: ''The Bridge''. Has ANYONE ever seen this or played on this map? Because I have never seen this map appear.
It took me about 40 minutes to write this entire thread and I would really appreciate it if I could receive some feedback from Higher Staff this time as most of the threads don't receive replies due to it being bad or Staff not having time for it. That's why I am going to tag @Mac @Efcluke94 and @Tacosbefriends wich I usually don't do.
I hope you guys and the community could give me feedback and actually implement some of these things.
