Well. Wasn't expecting to do a thread here at all anymore, but this is quite enraging, so let's get started. My name is Oreo btw. I would usually try to make a joke or something, but this is just too enraging and disgusting from CubeCraft's side.
1.- This gamemode is a blatant copy of HYPIXEL Bridge Duels.
I've searched, looked at threads and NO ONE besides @Sweetenerera has mentioned this. Which is VERY disappointing.
I could see you guys taking inspiration of other servers. Everyone does that, and there's nothing wrong with it.
But there's a difference between taking inspiration and copying the concept, and also the way of how they did the game.
Let's just take a quick comparison between BlockWars Bridges and Bridge Duels on Hypixel.
Do both games have a bridge that leads to an ender portal that when you go in you score a point?
Do both games have the same starter gear? (more or less, even though Cube put 30 arrows and a stone pickaxe instead of a dia one):
Do both games consist about people going in a ender portal to score and the first people to reach X points win the game?
And that's more or less about the whole game. A whole game CubeCraft copied from the Hypixel Network, with a few minor changes that I am not too sure if they make the game better or worse, as you can mine iron to get iron gear and u have WAY more arrows.
I wouldn't be too mad about this, if at least CubeCraft had mentioned the Hypixel Network on their release I wouldn't be pissed. But as far as I can see on the OFFICIAL release thread on the forums absolute no credit has been given to them.
2.- The game has absolutely nothing to do with BlockWars, and it baits people into thinking this is somewhat of a spin-off of the old BlockWars.
Well, the title of this point is self-explaintory. But sadly this is true. A few persons came to my DMs yesterday telling me that they were excited about the new mode, and that perhaps it could come close to being somewhat close to the old and beloved version of BlockWars. Sadly this is not true.
It has nothing to do with BlockWars, and it itself having the name doesn't make sense. Blockwars is already a pretty hated game by some players because it somewhat has a double chance to appear on the featured game rotation and that somehow triggers people. Im not about to talk about that.
But just the chances of having another BlockWars gamemode that people can hate only because of it's name, and people can hate because of it not being a "real" Blockwars gamemode doesn't seem too smart to me.
Nontheless I don't think you did this on an ill-intent to somewhat make the nostalgic players come back thinking that BlockWars could become permanent.
Besides this two points, I don't have anything really against the game. I am just very angry about the fact people can steal a gamemode completely from another Network without getting called out whatsoever. In my opinion this game is probably just gonna be a flop, it's not really popular on Hypixel with 100k players I don't think its gonna be too popular on Cube, people are probably just leaderboard seeking right now.
Don't take my opinions too harshly anyways, it's just not ok to steal someone's job without giving recognition.
I might respond to your messages in the comments if you reply.
Bye.
