Java Middle-map loot and side-rushing.

[MadBadJK]

It really depends on the map. Maps like Rainbow, sundae, sports and Ice (these are removed or still existing maps) are easy to rush on. Since Paris has been altered it is harder to rush with. Treehouse/birdhouse (forgot name) depends on the player next to you, tryharders will rush others not. Usually you have on flowers some time. Just select the maps where the chance of rushing is less likely to happen, we have loads of variation and you can choose rusher or non-rusher maps.

yeah so basically we need to code different loot for different maps?

That wasn’t what I said xd. Only that there are different map layouts and not every map is being rushed.

I agree on improving mid loot. Right now it only gives big quantity of blocks (around 50 blocks) and a small chance of getting mid exclusive weapons (diamond sword sharp 1 and gold sword with sharp and fire 1) alongside normal loot. Either increase the chance of finding one or slightly buff mid gear, like buff sharp 1 diamond sword to sharp 2, add a small chance of finding a pearl in a mid chest and maybe add protection 1 diamond armor pieces

Mid island should at least get a chance to have pearls. Seriously though, you get to mid, you kill all but one dude who's camping with bows and throwables on his starting island, and you've got soft blocks. You're not going to win. Only way to get to them would be to pearl to them. Mid island needs a high chance for at least one pearl.

Or you get the enderman kit

Now there's the problem of being forced to play a specific kit. "Unlucky enough to face off against a camper who is stacked with throwables and arrows on soft blocks and you don't have one specific kit equipped? TOO BAD!"
This shouldn't be the case imo.

I know not every map is being rushed, but the non-rushed maps are in clear minority. And i think that decisions are made on behalf on majority, not inclined towards minorities.

Yes, people just camp on starting islands, also have fat bridges to neighbouring islands. This gets them stacked with projectiles and gets VERY annoying. Especially when you get egged off after so much hardwork.

You get 1 pearl like every 3-4 minutes, and you also can also get egged off. So you need more than 1 pearl.
