🛡️ EggWars Season 1 - Egg Curses, Redstone & Generator Sabotage 🥚

[jimothyjuice]

It’s an okay update.

The curses are pretty good except for mining fatigue. Combined with obsidian, eggs will take much longer to break. It also encourages camping which will lead to longer games. Not many people like long games so cubecraft will lose players here.

Redstone is an amazing feature. It makes you design traps and can work as an automatic bow. One of the best features added to egg wars in my opinion. There is some downsides such as not having red stone torches but it’s still great.

Being able to downgrade a generator is pretty useless. It is too expensive to buy and has no real affect on the game. People will be able to upgrade it again quickly after. It also serves as a method for team griefing. Teamates are able to downgrade their teams generator. I don’t know if this can happen but if it does, please remove it.

An undo purchase feature is something I’ve wanted for a long time and they have finally added it. Many times I have accidentally purchased something and now I can refund it. Very useful.

Also, the new maps are fantastic. I’ve only played on a few but they are very well designed with lots of detail.

Another thing I’ve noticed is that there is some lag on the server. I’ve played maybe 10 games and the server went down on 3 of those. I hope this is related to the surge of players and not a lack of servers.

This is awesome!
I hope the people being in high places in the Leaderboard will get rewarded in the future .
Would be a nice addition

Hello CubeCrafters!

We're ready to finally present our newest experimental update, EggWars Season 1. Read about it below!

Seasons

Introducing our new system for EggWars, Seasons. Every 3 months we'll release a new season showcasing new features, each season will host it's own set of new features & changes which are automatically slated for removal unless the community votes otherwise. This will allow us to trial some new and wacky ideas in EggWars!

In 1.5 months expect a thread where you can all vote and give feedback on the individual features of the update.

Each season will also have it's very own leaderboard which will only show stats obtained during the seasonal period. This will be permanently etched into the leaderboard section even after the season finishes- so whoever holds the top spot of season 1 after it finishes will keep it!

Egg Curses

Our very first feature of Season 1. You can buy curses for your egg which will enact effects on the enemy who gets in their vicinity, giving you an opportunity to protect your egg. Choose your curse wisely based on your island defence setup!

Choose from the following curses: glowing (JE only), slowness, blindness, mining fatigue.

​

Redstone Shop Category

One of the topics we had lots and lots of community discussion on was whether redstone fit into EggWars. A perfect feature to trial in the new seasonal system! What will you do with it?

The redstone category includes the following items: repeater, pistons, oak pressure pad, string, slime blocks, redstone, redstone block, dispenser, observer, tripwire hook, lever.

​

Generator Downgrader

Introducing generator sludge, a new item in the miscellaneous section, this allows you to lower the level of any generator by one. However a generator cannot be downgraded below its starting level and can only be done every 20 seconds. A strategic team can do some serious damage with this!

View attachment 213733​

Undo Purchase

An amazing QoL feature- which was way harder to develop than you think! You can now undo any purchase made in the last 15 seconds which will return your tokens to you in full, this won't work if the item has been used.

EggWars Rank Update

Kawaii Plant Pot - Generator

Cupcake & Plush - Egg Skins

Bakery - Shop Skin

​

Additionally we've added 3 new egg break messages; rammed, cooked & kicked.

Miscellaneous

One of the features we had in the beta EggWars UI shop was that icon backgrounds would be green or red depending on whether you could afford it or not. This will now happen in the current shop without all the UI changes.

We've added 7 achievements to Java for the new features as well, so get them before they're gone.

We've also buffed the Baker kit to give more substantial food items.

I'm probably being stupid but whenever I play a game off eggwars duels it contributes towards my all time stats rather than my season 1 stats is there a way I fix this?

This is amazing, next best thing would now be a new version of Magic & Mayhem (perm gm)..
Other than that I love this update. Block Wars S1 when?

 

[vvel]

There are way too many bugs in this.
Whenever I try to buy something whilst having more than a stack of iron in my inventory it takes all/most of my iron.
Blocks in my inventory keep vanishing.
The leaderboards are wrong and broken and none of my stats are changing after playing and winning games.

Fun update. Shame you can't get on top of the cranes :-( Also.. it seems that all new maps veer towards being on a similar level.. I'd love to see more variety with player islands being different levels to mid on at least a few maps... I know some players absolutely love the fast rushes but I find it kinda annoying when it's all kinda on the one level.

Egg Solos just got fun again as it seems to have drawn out some good players. Not used the new stuff yet as been too busy rushing, but just read Elytra is gone... nooooo.. I love Elytra's for late game clutch fun. Hope they're not gone for good if indeed they're gone.

Good work tho cube :-)

[Gage12354]

Redstone feels like it will add so many new possibilities, especially with slime blocks! I just won my first game of the update by building a flying machine and flying to the other team’s island, and it was just as epic as it sounds. The only thing missing is redstone torches for those epic sticky piston traps, but it is still an awesome update nonetheless. With dispensers being movable in bedrock edition, it’s only a matter of time before people start making bomber planes and the like…

I see a lot of people are concerned about the mining fatigue trap, but I doubt it’ll have much of an effect in OP mode considering how ridiculous some of the higher-tier pickaxes are. The generator sludge, though, seems like it will be pretty useless except for maybe being used on emerald gens. It’s a shame how useless a lot of the “special” emerald items still are after so long, and I’m hoping that some cheaper or at least cooler ones are added eventually. We still haven’t gotten any emerald-bought blocks to place on eggs, which feels like a missed opportunity. I imagine something like infested stone bricks would be a cool addition without being anything game-breaking.

EDIT: I’ve actually noticed a few glaring issues with this update. The first is with the new mushroom map for teams of 4: the starting islands are NOT equal. Some of them have a gold generator while others don’t. The other issue is the textures; I’m not sure if I’m the only one with this problem, but in the item shop menus, all the textures are the black-and-purple placeholder. This could be an issue on my end, but help would greatly be appreciated.

 

[Fesa]

Absolutely loving the update

The curses are pretty good except for mining fatigue. Combined with obsidian, eggs will take much longer to break.

This curse is only obtainable through emeralds, meaning the team has to have been mid for quite a long time. The curse will thus not be present on islands that only farm; this should also give some extra protection for teams that are mid and thus have less people on the island.
If it turns out that the price is too low, and way too many teams have the item. It can always be adjusted with balancing updates

Being able to downgrade a generator is pretty useless. It is too expensive to buy and has no real affect on the game. People will be able to upgrade it again quickly after. It also serves as a method for team griefing. Teamates are able to downgrade their teams generator. I don’t know if this can happen but if it does, please remove it.

This item might be aimed more at tryhard games (more so on Java) to find its true use case. It was decided to allow downgrading of your own islands gen since it is common to switch bases after Egg breaks.
If a teammate is team trolling with it, you're always able to report them for it.

but just read Elytra is gone... nooooo.. I love Elytra's for late game clutch fun.

The Elytra is not gone, using a leap feather to boost yourself upwards is gone. Which is great, people in the void should be dead. You might still be able to use the item if you fall from a greater height than the lowest island height.

The first is with the new mushroom map for teams of 4: the starting islands are NOT equal

I told the designer of the map, hopefully fixed soon :D

Hi @Soulless_Unity someone would like to have a word with you.
