Hey CubeCrafters!

We're here to announce the release of an awesome BlockWars Quality of Life update! Read below for more.


🎯 BlockWars Side Tasks!

If you love playing BlockWars but want an extra challenge, then you're in luck. From today, BlockWars now has side tasks!

In every game, you will be given 3 randomly generated side tasks, tiered: Easy, Medium & Hard. Everyone has different side tasks. You can view them in the chat on join/start of the game, you'll also have a hotbar item to view them. If you complete them, you'll get rewards!

Care Package - Medium side task reward
Porkins Airstrike & Tank upgrade - Hard side task reward


🎉 New Maps!

In this QoL update, we've added a new CTF, Giga Bridges and Bridges Duels map!

Cave - BlockWars CTF

Put a cave face on for this map!


Mangrove - Giga BlockWars Bridges

Don't get too swamped playing on this.


Farm - BlockWars Bridges Duels

What a legen-dairy map!

Along with side tasks and new maps, we've made many other QoL changes!

⚡ New Powerups!

There are two new powerups, Thorns and Slow Falling. Which will give all of your teammates and yourself either slow falling, or add thorns to your armour temporarily. Along with this, we've refreshed some of the looks of the existing powerups!


Slowing Falling Powerup


🥳 Pit Skins Revamp!

One pet peeve we had in BlockWars Bridges, was the pit skins were all designed differently, inconsistent and you couldn't place blocks on the pit.

We've overhauled this! - Each pit skin has been recreated on a strict new template, making them all consistent. You can now place blocks on the edges of the pit, and the base of the pits is now animated!


New pit design/structure and block placement


🎉 BlockWars Rank Refresh!

As mentioned above, Pit Skins have been overhauled! We've also changed existing flag skins, even ones not in the BlockWars Rank, giving them an up-to-date polish. The cages in the BlockWars Rank have also been snazzed up! - This means the BlockWars Rank has had a full refresh with newly designed pit skins, flag skins and cages!

i have a big feedback to do in this update 💙❤️

first i will start saying that i loved the update, same as the lucky blocks update it embellished the models (the old ones were fr outdated and too blocky (unnecessary voxels)
7586E094-50D8-4A94-9339-F0EFE6DB5103.jpeg
) and i loved they touched some old flags too and gave them animations (which they didnt have) without changing their style in a negative way
here are some previews:

F415A7FA-1DB5-483A-8DFE-293764161D92.png

(the bunny one is so funnyyy)
D36CC7E5-1DD4-4C60-9F8B-B34F080C8C33.png


another positive thing is the pit skins, the old ones were kinda meh, i love that the new ones have animation inside the pit, and i love how they improved the animation with blockbench (if you compared the old gift pit skin and the tamagotchi buddy is just 2d pixel art that moves very fast to act as an “animation” but now if you check carefully is actually a 2d animation)
894E3D56-BBBF-452D-887D-E035CE74EBA8.jpeg


after all i said, i will go with the negative feedback, while the cosmetics nowadays have a consistent style (not changing in every bundle), i disliked how some of the pit skins got oversimplified (like the cake skin)
8301247B-E40D-468E-9926-713235F8861E.jpeg


another thing i hated is that they reused the pit animation from the toilet pit skin on the hot tub pit skin, if it is a hot tub it should have animated popping bubbles in water, as it is boiling water

i hate the fact that the cauldron pit animation is just a recolor of the cake one, and it is even bad painted

the last thing i didnt liked was the color palette they used in some cosmetics, like the christmas chimney pit skin, it looks off, and the shading in the castle cage also looks weird and exaggerated (in the red and blue tips of the castle)

thanks for this update because it gave me more will to play blockwars as it the least game mode i play 📕📘

You should not get in 100°C "boiling" water it is very bad for your skin
(They use water jets to make bubbles and its like 40°C at the most)

Hi! I'm new, and I don't really understand necroposting. There is an option to tick that says 'I understand that this post is 3 months old and would still like to reply', should we just never tick that? If so, what is its purpouse?
