Escalated Obsidian rank

[Quis]

maybe also obsidian rankers, would be able to make clans?

I feel like clans are more personal. You can do it if you want, but it shouldn't be a Cubecraft thing.

Seeing lots of comments discussing this current topic makes me feel like we should maybe involve some admins to find some good additions to the Obsidian rank as it's currently overpriced.

Therefore I decided to escalate option 2 so everyone their voice will be heard once we discuss this important case!

Thank you so much! This has been a problem for a while. I'm glad you escalated this!

I agree with extra friends slots and maybe loot for the people who find it fun to stay on lobbies- id hate to give people with ranks access to more multipliers bad idea ,pay to win clearly. so ig i agree with loot and access to more friend slots

edit: i kinda wish i stayed with emerald rank theres 0 difference between emerald and obi and tbh i like the colour more :3 so kinda says it is kinda useless imo

That’s what I want to change.

Also, thanks for your opinion on the suggestions, but option 2 got escalated. That meant that there might be a community talk about this topic soon!

I don't think I like the sound of this. Obsidian people being more lucky with their loot just sounds unfair to lower rank players in a way.

I understand what you mean, but you're paying so much money, like a big amount just for cosmetics. You don't actually get any in-game benefits apart from voting, but many other people vote and usually everyone likes it, so I think they should add this feature. You're paying so much money and all you get is a purple 'Obsidian' tag next to your name and voting benefits, I still think this isn't worth the money. You should have a more permanent type of cosmetic boost, and I personally think this is actually a fair idea for Obsidian Ranks

They get a discount at crafting super & uber cubelets and there are other ways to boost obsidian than something that would just not be fair for lower rank players.

Besides, what I find intriguing about the cubelet system is that you basically have a cosmetic collection with good loot that you're missing and that you are aiming for. If you always got good loot and just got all you aimed for, eventually it will be lost of its fun

True, but then you’ll go for all loot. And to avoid you getting only mythical loot duplicates and still needing normal ones it could maybe be changed to a higher chance of getting loot you don’t have yet?

That sounds much more reasonable!

Great idea, maybe even add as a suggestion?

How about giving obsidian rank access to hosting private games. (p.e. retro maps etc)

This has been suggested before and we came to the conclusion that it’s more a plus feature. Even though, you can suggest this again if there will be a community talk about the rank. :D

+1

I completely agree with the fact that obsidian rank needs to be more special!

I have considered buying obsidian for a while now, but I didnt really see the added value compared to my current rank (emerald)... Some of these ideas would possibly tip the balance in the favor of buying the upgrade.

Then it will be partly an obsidian rank feature too, considering you (might) get Plus every X months with Obsidian. When will that talk take place?

Option 2 got escalated, so all the suggestions in option 1 aren’t relevant.

I don’t know. Younisco will probably make an announcement when he’s ready to start one.

Good suggestion. The only reason why I'm not upgrading to Obsidian rank is that it's nearly the same as Emerald and (IMO) it's not worth upgrading. The things you suggested would make the rank much more interesting. As komododragon said, it might also be a good idea to allow Obsidian ranked players to host private games. :)

allow Obsidian ranked players to host private games. :)

This has been suggested by @FleurSchx before and I liked it too, but I have to agree with @Loubey.

I think this would be better as a plus rank feature, as there are a lot of players with an obsidian rank to much players would make a private game. Also being able to create private games would be a good selling point for plus ranks.

It's more about cubecraft recources, if every obsidian rank would be able to create a private game it could affect the overall performance of the network.

I still like the idea, but it might affect the performance of the server.

Make it a few private games every week or so then
