So a long time ago Cube got like in a rock bottom so I made a complaints thread (which got a little bit too...) and the staff got up to date about our thoughts in one single thread.
So now lets do the same thing but specifically Assassination, what are your complaints, what is bad right now. After we got strong ones. We could search and find a way to fix it.
At this point of time I'm getting tired to be one of the few people trying to revive Assass on forums and in-game, alongside some people (@vinlir@Sijpieboy@iLoveYouu@Marieke2001)
So maybe this will be a historical moment where everything turned in our favours.
*TO NOTE: EXPLAIN AS DETAILED AS POSSIBLE WHAT IS WRONG ABOUT AND WHAT YOU DON'T LIKE ABOUT IT!'
So i have noticed that there are less people playing now, not sure why.
I havent really played it a bunch though, i guess its just something that im not really fond of.
But i do hope that it will go from dying to being alive again for all of you who love assassins <3
But it's really annoying when you have literally a chain chestplate and nothing else and someone with diamond gear is focusing you. Yes i've had this and that was before I became helper. I can't even get a set of iron on my own without getting killed by someone in full diamond.
The game is more fun since the AC has been released, most of the time there are 0 - 5 hackers online. But i'm missing achievements.
I do agree Assassins is kind-of dead.
I personally play it now about 1 or 2 times a month for less the half an hour or so.
It's indeed quite annoying to get full diamond with all other full diamond guys dominating the entire map.
There is only one thing I still enjoy wich is using invisibility potions to mess around with ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
When I'm playing with my friends it's like always fun, just trying to get full diamond. Finally we got a diamond chest plate and things, it's fun! Untillllll
We are getting focused by people. I cannot go out of shops because of the focus. It isn't only if I have some good gear it's when I have just the beginners kit to.
I don't know why? It's because of the tryharders or something? I don't know, but it's very very very annoying.
I have never personally liked assassins. Every time I try to play it I either get targeted by someone after I kill them or I don't have enough gear to kill them. Also, when I am much more undergeared than someone and im about to kill them, they always run into the safe zones. I don't know if this just happens to me but its the main reason why I don't play.
@Marieke2001 Thanks for the tag.
So you wanna know what I hate about assassins? Sure.
Clan targetters, people who have previously been killed by me, who are too salty about when i killed them.
So they target me for no reason, I hate that.
I just hate the fact that I like assassins, no joke.

- Shops Prioritise Coalwhen buying items in the shops. It's a very simple idea and it helps out so much, platinum coins barely take up any space in your inventory but they always get used as first when buying items.
- Selling armor and weapons. Assassins is about killing players and especially killing players who have good gear, it's nice when you kill someone who has good gear, but you can't do much with it if you already have gear so if it's diamond you usually end up keeping it in your inventory and if it's iron you just dispose it. It would be really need if you could sell these items for coins or maybe even trade a certain amount of armor in for unique items.
- Armor repairing npc. Currently most players buy new gear when there armor is almost broken, but they don't want to throw their old armor away because it still has some durability, this does however take inventory space. You should be able to repair your gear here paying for the durability you lost on your armor piece, you can repair it by right clicking the npc with that armor piece in your hand and it will pop up an interface if you really want to do it. So let's say you have a diamond chestplate with half durability, you pay 250 coins to repair it, instead of 500 for a complete new chestplate.
- A small solution to shop campers. Either make the timer for losing hunger in shops not reset instantly when leaving the shop, so you would have to leave the shop for at least 5-10 seconds (just an example) in order for the food to not go down anymore. Or change it so when you enter the shop you have to at least walk 5 blocks away from the shop to reset the food draining, this means players would have to risk leaving the shop a bit further in order to stay near/in the shop without losing a lot of food.
- Potentially adding a ranking system. It would be neat to see a ranking system in Assassins, lt would add some more end game achievements, you would rank up and get a nice prefix only in assassins. Players would start of with for example the beginner prefix and after 100 kills they'll get the next prefix and so on, and maybe not only with kills also with playtime and other things.
- A /truce command. Most players that play assassins are in a team or truced with players, This command would allow players to truce others so they can't hit them, for example I /truce someone and the player can still hit me but I can't hit him, but if he hits me once I he gets automatically untruced and I can fight him. This would be to prevent back stabbers.
- Adding leaderboards to assassins. Leaderboards should definitely get added to assassins, it has been requested by loads of players. I think a leaderboard for Kills and maybe even blocks walked should be fine.
- Coin exchanger fix. Change the coin exchanger so it only exchanges coal and gold coins instead of all the three types of coins, currently when you exchange all your coins and you had platinum coins in your inventory you will also pay 'taxes' over them to exchange them to platinum even though they already were platinum coins.
- Ingame tutorial. Even though the assassins community is very helpful, new players always ask a lot of questions. I think it would be really helpful to have a tutorial on how to play the game, preferably an npc in the assassins lobby that teleports you around the map (Maybe spawn in the exact same map a couple coordinates away from the playing map and teleport the tutorial watchers around there) and gives info about how things work and what the point of the game is.
- Fix bounty farming. I've already reported this on Active Collab, but it really should get fixed. Players go into empty maps with a friend of them and they abuse the bounty system to gain loads of coins. Instead of having to deal with the complicated bounty system another sollution could be to only have 2 servers for assassins at all times, one desert map and one trees map. Once one of these maps reach 50 players it could spawn one new server with that map, and if the one that had 50 players goes down to around 40 and the other has like 10-20 players it could shut down again. At least maybe something along those lines.
- Scoreboard. Add a scoreboard/sidebar to the side in assassins showing how many coins you have, and show how many kills you've had in that life (killstreak), also show how many kills in total you have since you logged into assassins that time and show how many deaths you got since you logged into assassins that time.
- Bounty. Change it so players who are in the assassins spawn/lobby can't become your bounty.
- Automated drop parties. At a random times drop parties will appear in the map. There will be a select amount of locations available for drop parties and before a drop party happens it will select one of these locations. Around 5 minutes before the drop party starts it will announce in the chat where it will happen and every minute afterwards it will announce this again. These drop parties will contain some diamond gear, maybe some enchanted armor and weapons, but not anything too overpowered. Basically what @Tacosbefriends used to do, but then automated.
- Coin pouch. This is a chest that has 9 slots (could be changed if you feel like this is too much), the chest can only hold coins. You can obtain this pouch by buying it for a certain amount of coins in the shop, for example 5000 coins. You won't lose the pouch when you die, but you will lose the coins inside of it.
- A level/ranking system. I already mentioned something like this in my previous suggestions for assassins, but back then I thought it'd be cool that players would get a certain prefix name when ranking up. I think it'd be better if this was changed to an a level system with numbers. This could give players a bit more motivation to keep playing assassins to level up.
- An extra bounty system. There will be a new NPC that allows you to put money on player their heads, so let's say I want to motivate people to kill a certain player then I can put 100 coins on their head and the person who kills them will get these coins.
- Quests/goals. Everytime you freshly spawn in on assassins after you've died you will get a quest/goal you can complete to get a small coin/armor/weapon reward. You can only get these quests/goals when you spawn in freshly, so not when you switch maps and spawn in again.
- Some enchantments. It would be nice to be able to buy certain enchantments for your items, I would only want to see unbreaking 1-2, punch 1, infinity, projectile protection 1-2 and feather falling 1-2. These enchantments would cost quite a bit and aren't really overpowered.
- Bounty streak. When someone has a bounty streak of 5 or higher they will get the glowing effect from time to time for a short period of time.
- Selling armor and weapons. Assassins is about killing players and especially killing players who have good gear, it's nice when you kill someone who has good gear, but you can't do much with it if you already have gear so if it's diamond you usually end up keeping it in your inventory and if it's iron you just dispose it. It would be really need if you could sell these items for coins or maybe even trade a certain amount of armor in for unique items.
A black market between armor and food (where the market is) you can use the trade in npcs in the stands and if you hit someone in the black market, (because pvp is allowed) you will get the spectral effect for one minute.
