Hello! I am Remi, and I created this thread using some of my own ideas, and some of the ideas that were made up by @Foxy011 and @MFHfrosteh (Doesn't have a forums account). We think that Battle Zone dies too fast. It's a very good gamemode, and I really enjoy playing it. But, there are problems. When it first came out, everyone complained about the bugs that were in the game, and some of them even abused them. (For example, the water bug, the bug that you could not jump off the pig plane, the incredible high ping players got, etcetera.)
When the bugs were fixed, everybody left. The management team kept updating battle zone, with awesome features, but they came too fast. You simply can't release 6 updates of 1 single game in a row. (I know there was a skywars update between the first and the second update)
The problem now is that the games simply don't start. You can even wait for 4 hours, but I'm pretty sure you won't be able to start 1 single game. This is very sad, in my opinion. Battle Zone is an awesome game with incredible guns like the flamethrower and the shotgun, and I do enjoy it. But there's no way to enjoy a game if games simply don't start. I don't want this game to die like Ultra Hardcore, SG and other games did. You spent too much time to update and improve the gamemode, and I just enjoy playing it too much. That's why we have to start something! Here are ideas to make battle zone less dead. Ideas for a last update in a certain period of time.
Our ideas:
The problem is that if we wouldn't do it now, you can just remove the game. The game won't be played more if the games don't start. Everybody thinks "The games never start, and I don't want to wait. So I leave. Never gonna play this game again, it just takes too long for this game to be filled.". We won't get anywhere if we simply don't try. Everybody knows that there's never gonna join 100 players in 1 game again, and 30 players to start a game is just too much for a game that's almost dead. Try it, please. Just like our best football players ever said (Johan Cruyff): "Nooit geschoten is altijd mis." (Translation: "If you don't shoot, you will anyways miss."), which is a saying to symbolize that you should always try before saying no to something.
This is the start of a new movement. Who joins?
That's it! Thanks for reading, and have a nice day,
Remi
By the way please don't lock this thread for being a complaint thread since this is a thread to convince the management team that we urgently need changes! :>

Our ideas:
- Decrease the amount of players needed to start a game. This has already been suggested in countless of threads, but I just can't skip this suggestion. One of the best ways to make a game start is by decreasing the number of players needed to start a game! This could be reduced to 15-20 players.
- If the amount of players needed to start a game has decreased, decrease the maximum players that fit in a game. 100 players. First, it was easy to get a game of battle zone filled. But since many players have quit the game, it's most likely that this is never gonna be reached again. Please decrease the maximum amount of players that fit in 1 game of battle zone. In solo, the maximum amount of players could be decreased to 40. Or 30.
- Make the maps smaller. We don't need such a big map if we play with 40 players, so my suggestion is to remove some cities, and the blocks under them. I have nothing against the cities, since the builders spent very much time to create them, but otherwise, the map would be too large. That would decrease the amount of fights in the game, which is the actual goal of the game. For sure, there's still the border that's shrinking, but it's just too large to have many fights in.
- Add messages that remind you of battle zone. If there'd be certain messages like "Check out our great game! Battle Zone has been released", or "Gunfights, buildbattles, you can find them in Battle Zone!", more curious players would play or at least try Battle Zone. The reason why I've added bold words is because if you'd click them you'd be teleported to the battle zone lobby. The messages would show up every hour, and there should be variation.
I've asked multiple times for the starting minimum to be reduced, but as I understand it, reducing it for this game would require us to redo how every game on the network decides when to start. Sadly, I don't think this will get implemented, but consider it escalated.
The problem is that if we wouldn't do it now, you can just remove the game. The game won't be played more if the games don't start. Everybody thinks "The games never start, and I don't want to wait. So I leave. Never gonna play this game again, it just takes too long for this game to be filled.". We won't get anywhere if we simply don't try.
