More complex crafting in SG and skywars

[betty's oldies]

Feel like you can craft only armor and swords in SG and skywars? Want flint and feathers? Then this is for you!

Suggestion
Add flint, feathers, and gold to SG and skywars but increase the rarity of arrows and gold. That means players are encouraged to craft more in SG since SG is based on hunger games (you craft, steal, or find tools). Crafting is also one of the main skills of Minecraft survival.

Flint and steel can be crafted, but it will start with 3/64 durability for each one crafted (so 4 uses initially).

For 1.9 and up, disable god apple crafting recipe (make god apples exclusive to OP only and lower the chances of god apples appearing in chests).

I can see this as a thing but in my opinion I like being able to go through with out having to craft tons of stuff I mean sure its not exactly like the real Hunger Games but I like it the way it is :)

Yes I have always wanted feathers in SW! There have been so many times I have run out of arrows and I can't get any more. You have my support!

Hmmm. I thought feathers and flint were already a part of survival games on here, guess that's what I get for barely playing it. XD
Anyways, Yes! I think this would be a great addition. Don't know why it wasn't already a thing, but ok. :P

I do not think this should be add to the game.

SG is fast pace game and crafting should not be added.

I barely have time or the resources to craft a sword

Poll has been added; man, I forgot to add that when I created this suggestion!

@mciq: Memorize crafting table locations. Every map has at least 1 crafting table (don't know about enchant table though). Some maps keep the tradition of having crafting tables at spawn.

@TheBrownster904: In the official SG, flint and feathers are in that game. I'd also want less food in game (so chests hold less than they currently do).

I should've reserved a slot for changelog but I'll post it in OP.

Mojang disabled crafting god apples in 1.9 already so no need to change anything there.
My only issue with your suggestions regarding adding these items to survival games is that cubes SG is known for being the way it is, its quite op, has plenty of armour/food/weapons. I don't think I've played SG elsewhere where they've had it the same way. They always have a lot of flint/feathers/sticks/gold bla bla bla. So I'm against that for SG.

Nope, CubeCraft re-enabled god apples for 1.9+ skywars.

Closest SG gamemodes CubeCraft has to other SG servers is basic SG. All others, you're right about that.

I think this should get added to SG because it's based on the original hunger games. However, I can't agree with you on
adding it to Skywars, because skywars is a fast paced game- the islands are way to close to craft yourself some arrows.

I could see why you would want this, but in my opinion that would just lengthen the games.

I don't see how adding flint and feathers would lengthen the game at all. In fact, it would probably shorten it because you won't always have to look for arrows. And crafting really doesn't take long, just 4-5 seconds. And if there is a limited number of crafting tables, it would promote fighting at the crrafting tables. :)

I think it would lengthen the games because you will not have things like arrows in a chest, and you will have to craft them instead. Also I just do not really like crafting. XD

I'm okay for everything, except for this:

For 1.9 and up, disable god apple crafting recipe (make god apples exclusive to OP only and lower the chances of god apples appearing in chests).

In OP mode in SW, finding enchanted golden apples isn't at all hard.
But disabling it for normal kind of ruins the purpose of the feature.
But then again, if you have one of these on BASIC mode, it's heck of an advantage.
I'm okay with disabling it for basic, but not for normal.

There would still be arrows in chests, you just also have the materials to craft them in case you want more.

As they said, they would be rare. Making it take a lot more luck to get the flint, feathers, and sticks.

 

[Ping Ether]

IMHO loot in Skywars has always been lame and repetitive without an actual way of improving your gear, just opening chests trying to find fulldiamond.
I would like more crafting items, and especially a loot table revamp.
+1

Just as much luck as finding diamond/iron gear in a chest. They aren't going to make these items super rare because you need three separate components for just a few arrows.

True, but either way. I guess this would depend on everyone's opinion.

 

[Power Ranger]

I would greatly prefer if crafting had a bigger prescence in both of these games. I like the idea of crafting arrows and don't really mind if the flint and steel had I'll durability when crafted ♡
