A suggestion to stop campers in egg wars

[DarkEndDivinity]

I like this one! Good idea!



Endermen would be a problem as they would teleport away (and it would be difficult to patch)



Let's say you are playing on underdasea... The players are all by there egg (protected from lava) Other players can't invade their island, But they can shoot arrows at you...

I do really like this tho!!

Thanks for the support. I admit the lava one isn't as good an idea especially considering it's slow. and for Endermen, it's true they would teleport away and are too tall for most doors so they could just remove that one.

You don't seem to be understanding this... There are warning a minute before the catastrophe to tell everybody to stay away, lightning would be changed to one shot players and destroy all man-made blocks, including obsidian, there is earthquake to destroy parts of the island and meteors to just destroy everything. Some of these are easy, some are not. It's not like many of the other anti-camper suggestions were foolproof either, now were they?

You're right, I really don't understand.
So because this suggestion is supposedly "better" than the others, we should just add it in? Just make a bridge or if you're in OP grab pearls. Literally all you have to do is make a little platform right off the edge of your island and you'll be safe from the lightning (of course unless you change it again)

I never said this suggestion was better then the others. I am fully aware there are many suggestions 10 times better than this one. But again, nothing is perfect.This most likely won't be added anyways, and also if they make a little platform outside of their island and get stuck there, they are out of generators if their island gets destroyed by earthquake or something so it isn't as much as a problem, the campers with generators are the biggest problems.

That's not the idea; you build out, wait for the storm to end, then build back. You can't prevent this.

But if the island gets destroyed there is no point in building back, he will still have to find somewhere else to go.

But if he does not have enough building blocks to go somewhere else, what does he do?

I mean, you said the gen areas and villager (and I assume egg) would be unaffected. He could just build up a new island.

On the one hand is a good idea, but on the other No:
Good Reason: There will not be so many camperos.
The Bad Reason: People who are not campera and have to do high bridge les Kickeara, as the option you have said...

I love egg wars as much as the next person, one of my favorite games on Cubecraft by far, but if you've played minecraft for at least a decent amount of time, you would know that campers are a big problem from time-to-time, break bridge, get a bow, and just not allow anybody near while profiting the max level gens on their own island. That is why I would like to suggest a new feature in egg wars, I honestly don't know if this would be worth it to add or not, in my opinion it would also make gameplay more difficult for some people who think egg wars is too easy. My suggestion is, adding Catastrophies. Say every 10 minutes or so, a random catastrophy, ex: Lightning storm, hits a random players island (With warning like a minute before) for a minute or so, and if you stay on your island you will either get damage or killed forcing players to retreat to middle. Every 30 minutes it would add an extra catastrophe so say after an hour and a half there would be 3 different catastrophies hitting 3 islands (they can hit the same one if your unlucky)

List of catastrophies:

Lightning storm:
Clouds appear over the players island for a minute and strike down lightning with 3-7 second intervals.

Invasion:
Mobs spawn all over the players island and hunt you down, Zombies, Skeletons, Creepers (Charged if during a thunderstorm), Endermen, and basically every other mobile enemy mob and disappear after a minute (Creepers don't damage the natural environment but can destroy player placed blocks). (Player can fight them off like every other mob)

Lava rain:
Lava falls from the sky all over your island drenching it in lava for one minute, no fire spread.

Anti-gravitational field
Similar to invasion, except all the mobs are shulkers, as the name suggests, their abilities will make you float into the air until you eventually fall and die or avoid their attacks.

Meteor rain
Only possible after first 30 minutes, most rare catastrophie, meteors fall down from the sky for a minute like the rest, but they can destroy the natural environment and player placed blocks (can't destroy generators).

That is all for now, might add more some other time if the idea is acceptable.

I think that its fun to actually beat the campers, Like trying to build over or things like that. It would be boring if everyone keeps attacking and the games would take 5 minutes. :P

Ye actually I realized that a while ago so the generators can be affected by this, just not the egg or villager.

But if he does not have enough building blocks to go somewhere else, what does he do?

He should've prepared in advance if that becomes a problem, unfortunate things do happen from time to time.

On the one hand is a good idea, but on the other No:
Good Reason: There will not be so many camperos.
The Bad Reason: People who are not campera and have to do high bridge les Kickeara, as the option you have said...

Yes I know, many people have pointed out the big number of cons that greatly outnumber the pros. :P Also, that is why there is a warning in advance, so people know to leave that island or face the consequences.

I know there are many bad aspects to this suggestion, I also feel this isn't really in the right "nature" of egg wars, so I think this might do decently as another game mode. "Catastrophic mode" or something like that so people can play it if they want. If it's really unpopular it could become like hardcore, where some people just chose it to get easy wins because half the server leaves.
