2 Eggwars Suggestions (From November 2016)

[Qin Shihuangdi]

So, I wanted to bring 2 suggestions back up from November that never got feedback from staff, however the community thought they were really good suggestions.

Raising the Void

This suggestion is really straightforward, just bring the kill line up to 2 blocks below the lowest point of travel (the lowest part on the top of the lowest island(s).

Why? I was playing on a game of tropical today and it was one of the four maps I actually somewhat enjoy OP so I stuck with it when someone else voted for it. Immediately, I saw the island behind me had a hacker. I speed bridged over, took out their egg, and killed them.. almost. This hacker was very strange as they ran away for 30 FREAKING MINUTES because even with fly hacks they were too scared to fight me. They did the jump off and fly technique, just barely surviving the void. However, if it was higher I easily would of killed them.

Bomb Jumping

Basically, this is the anti-camp measure that I've always supported for both hardcore and normal.

If you don't know what bomb jumping is, check out @Lezappen 's video.

Prices:
Normal:

Non-Igniting, Self Harming TnT: 15 Gold
Redstone Dust: 10 Iron
Button: 10 Iron
Water Bucket that Disappears in 5 Seconds: 10 Gold

OP: All Normal Prices Cut in Half (Except the TnT which becomes 5 gold)

Hardcore: All Normal Prices Doubled

Now, I do some team trolling problems occuring with this but it takes a few seconds so it should be easy to avoid.

With ten pieces of TnT, I can get over 70 blocks distance, easily beating all three types of campers!

Make sure to vote in the poll!

The void idea is great! But I need to learn a bit more about bomb jumping.

 

[Thaus]

I like all of these suggestions. +1!

 

[lil naz x]

This sounds amazing! it would definitely rule out camping! +1 :)

 

[Gainfullterror]

Sounds fantastic to me!
But one thing I feel needs to change incase of bugs:

Water Bucket that Disappears in 5 Seconds: 10 Gold

Instead of that, why not a still water source block and have that dissapear? (The one that doesn't flow)

 

[Power Ranger]

Raising he void sounds like a good idea as the only people it will really affect are fly hackers and in very very few cases being trying to get an e pearl save on op eggwars. I don't really mind adding the TNT but I probably would never use it because I'd probably kill myself xD

 

[Supreme_Wolfy]

Raising the void would be good to kill hackers faster that have fly hacks and the other suggestion which was bomb jumping should also be added so that the game will be harder and funner I mean you could just bomb jump to player's islands and take out their egg without a bridge.

 

[TheZeroAssassin]

Yes to both.

 

[Ping Ether]

I'm gonna be honest here, I hate self igniting TNT, and I would love to make traps n TNT jumpin' n stuffs...
+1

 

[Minaa]

I think both of these ideas are great. +1 Also there's a few fly hackers these days and it's annoying how they just fly in the "void"

 

[WolfShine]

The void one sounds great! Their are a lot of fly hackers, and that would really help!

 

[RushRush]

In my personal opinion adding tnt cannons would ruin the game.

 

[Netflix_Addicted]

if it was higher I easily would of killed them.

I think you meant would have/would've killed them (Sorry I saw it and I thought it was nice to say xD)
But to stay on topic. I really love both ideas, there could be a problem with the team trolling but as you already said because of the ignition-time of TnT they should have more then enough time to run away :D.

I have a suggestion. What about being able to buy a new egg? I don't know if that would work with mod and all, but maybe in op you could buy a new egg for like 5-10 stacks of diamonds. What do you guys think?

I recommend that you make a new thread for this idea. So it is much easier to see.

 

[Lezappen]

+1 I like both ideas ;)
