Bedrock Purchasable Prefixes

[InsaneOrbitzz]

Ive titled this as purchasable prefixes however I feel there should be a bit more to it.

So with Eggwars rank, you get custom egg skins, custom prefixes, custom shop skins etc. I feel like there should be more purchasable options on the shop.

I am in no way saying there isn't loads already, so please continue reading before you assume anything.

My point is, you can buy separate buddies, separate cages, separate shop skins, separate egg skins.

But what if we were able to buy separate capture the flag skins, separate prefixes that aren't rank specific.
Not everyone is around during Easter for the Easter rank. People may have missed the valentines rank etc.

But if I want a cool prefix, as well as to support the server, I have to buy a seasonal pack or spend £8 on a gamemode rank. So I think a prefix pack, or just separate purchasable prefixes could be cool. Especially if all I want is a cool prefix in chat. Not everyone has the facilities to just buy a gamemode rank is my point.

I dont know if this is actually possible, already in the works or a bad idea, but ill add a poll to see what others think anyways.
If easy to do, wouldn't harm anyone.

Hi there!
I dont like more prefixes, because they make the chat look messy. Here is why:

Whats the whole point of having a prefix? The prefixes from the Eggwars and Skywars ranks will show the player has a rank, so thats kinda useful. The limited time prefixes like Egghunt or Presenthunt shows you played the game already during that period, so thats useful af well. But if they add purchasable prefixes, it will only show you spent money for cosmetic stuff on the server.
In my opinion this will make the chat unnecessary messy.

Kind regards,
Vrachtschip // Jeffrey

I personally don't really like how prefixes work on bedrock compared to CubeCraft Java. It's already messy enough imo and they aren't really that special anymore. That's also the reason why I disagree with this idea, I'm sorry.

Isn't that the case already for seasonal packs, or gamemode specific ranks already?

On Bedrock you cant earn loot. You can only buy it...

Also if Cubecraft felt prefixes looked messy. They wouldn't have already created over 90 possible prefixes.

Even more stuff locked behind paywalls? No thanks, it's bad enough on bedrock as it is.

The current prefixes are already like this. So it wouldn't make a change, + no one is forcing you to buy it.

I know that, they make too much profit to remove them ofcourse. I think it's messy

I think its a cool feature personally. But each to their own.

The more payed items Cubecraft adds, the less content is accessible to people who aren't willing to spend lots of money on the server. I think items should be unlocked, not payed for. But since that likely won't happen, I'm not going to suggest it, but the last thing the server needs is even more things to pay for.

I think it's way cleaner and better to have prefixes actually have something to say about the person that has the prefix. Having all kinds of random prefixes makes it more difficult to see who is a moderator for example, but that's my opinion of course.

This is a point I 100% agree with and I have mentioned this several times before.

I am not disagreeing with the fact that there should be items which are earned not bought. My point is since my suggestions I have no clue if this idea is even in the works. So I pitched this instead.

Prefixes should be above the head instead. Then special ones like YT or Staff in chat.

That's a perfect solution, they obviously can't remove the prefixes for people who bought it, but this would make it 10x better in my opinion.

Ill write up another thread with that idea.

i wouldnt mind buying a prefix pack with like 5 prefixes for 1-2 bucks tbh

Well like I said, it can be useful to activate a Eggwars or Skywars prefix so people can see you are able to vote. There arent that many seasonal (purchasable) prefixes.

Also if Cubecraft felt prefixes looked messy. They wouldn't have already created over 90 possible prefixes.

I never said Cubecraft felt like that, but I think it would make the chat look messy.

Ill write up another thread with that idea.

If you make this thread I will vote +1 ;)

I think just being able to buy them from seasonal packs is enough.

We have prefixes from ranks, which are useful because they show what rank a player has. The prefixes from egg hunts are useful because they show how long someone's been playing. And then of course mod and youtuber and all the special prefixes are obviously useful.

We already have prefixes you can get from seasonal packs, which kinda show how long someone's been playing as well. I don't think there'd be a point to adding purchasable prefixes because they don't really show anything special about the player, and would only serve to clog up chat more.

To show how many time people have been playing, I think it would be better to get a level prefix in chat or in the game tag.

Example: "(27) ExampleName1", or "(30) ExampleName2".

Showing the level doesn't necessarily tells how many time a person has been playing, but I think is a way to deduce it.

Obviously the time a person has been playing can be shown in their profile stats.

With ranks, the prefixes look cool but we have "/who".

Actually you CAN earn loot from seasonal hunts
