Java Skywars map ice

[GeldHaftige]

I don’t understand why the map ice is removed from solo skywars. This was a very lovely map around whole the community. My suggestion is to bring it back.

And a short question: why are most of the time all the maps broken when you want to choose your map (map selection)

 

[Sweetenerera]

I do love Ice, it's an old map so it'll always have a place in my heart. But it was removed, probably, due to the fact that PvP on ice is an absolute pain. I agree that they should keep it removed. Maybe they can re-add it with a possible next nostalgia week. I don't think they added Ice last time.

It was a great map but as @Sweetenerera said pvp on ice is terrible

Unfortunately indeed, but it was probably removed because the map was not popular enough, and this answers also your other question: it is to prevent players from waiting too long. If everyone could choose more maps, players will be waiting too long before a game starts. So, that is the reason.

I suppose staff decided to take it away… as I was (maybe) played less and as said above, you can't pvp on ice… Well you can but you can't

It’s a very beautiful map, but sadly I remember how hard it was to fight people on it.
I want to see nostalgia weeks coming to cube more often, but I definitely want to see this map getting added permanently, because it’s just not comfortable to play on.

Let's not act like a re-add is unimaginable, things can get adjusted. It completely depends on how many players would like to see this map return to the game, but there's always the possibility to retexture the map by adding some more snow type blocks.

So yes. If enough players want it to return, why not?

Because the map is called Ice, ice is known to be an annoying block to fight on. If they want to changed It so it wouldn't be an annoying PvP map, they'd need to change pretty much every single block to none ice onces. Conpletely destroyed the name of the map. Which is Ice.

And yes, if the demand is high why not but rn it doesn't look like it is.

Adding variety and different blocks won't completely change the map. Adding a little more snow or snow type blocks will still give you the 'icy' idea.

And what if the name of the map changes? Would you actually bother? To me, you like a map when you like the way it has been built and the concept of it. I assume you wouldn't mind it getting a small retexture and/or rename as long as the thought and idea of the map stays the same.

It will still give you the icy idea, but not as much. If they want to re-add Ice, and they first need to change pretty much all the blocks you can walk on, they might as well remake the entire map. Especially if they change the map name.

I know a lot of you said that you cannot pvp on ice blocks.. but let's be honest, most of us have ranks and can decide not to join this map, and even if you have no rank, you can still leave this map before it starts, if you don't like it.
That being said, Ice was one of my favorite maps, it needs another way of winning the game.
To you, SkyWars is all about the PVP part.
To me it's about strategy.
I loved this map, it made me good at void knocking.
This is just one other way of playing the game. Lots of people say when a new map submission is out "It needs different ways of play, so you can choose if you are rushing, trapping, to go to mid, …".
This map gives an entire other way of winning the game.
For me, I personally would love to see this map back.
In fact, I'd like 2 maps that have ice on them, so it's not all about pvp.
This way, not every good player has a higher chance to win, but less advanced players can win too.

I'd like this map to return :)

Of course not, but the 'icy' notion won't disappear since there are ice blocks.

True! That's exactly what I am pointing out. The map required some parkour skills, which made it even more challenging to play on. I personally don't think that aspect of the map should disappear. The ice blocks can stay and prevail, as long as there is a good balance between the substitute blocks.

Especially if they change the map name.

Take the map Time for instance. What if the name would be changed to 'Clock' or something. I don't think the map has to change depending on the name, but in this case calling it 'Icy' would be the best option. No need to change the map because of that though.

This suggestion was about re-adding the map Ice. I'm fine with it if they remake Ice completely, make it good for PvP. My point was that if they remake Ice, they're not re-adding the original map.

The map looks like a clock, so I'd work. Changing 'Ice' wouldn't make sense because there's no snow. They'd need to change the map to change the name. Icy and Ice is pretty much the same. If they change the blocks you walk on, with normal blocks. Blue glass, quartz, they can still name it Ice if they keep things like the little ice castles.

That's exactly what I'm saying, heh.
