Best Posts in Thread: Meep Skywars: Why I don't like it

This isn't a hate thread, more like a suggestion thread on some things I think they can improve upon. I, and many other people who play skywars often, have all thought the same thing. I know it's still in development, but we don't know whats being added so mine as well suggest some stuff.

1. Remove Kits or Change them - Edit: Kits have been changed a lot, were added and removed. I haven't tried all of the kits yet, so I cannot give an opinion.

2. The Maps - I love how the maps look and I know the archs put a lot of effort into them, but they just aren't skywars maps. The islands are to spread apart, and are also very hard to navigate (a lot having details in the way such as water or holes). I think that a good builder who also plays skywars should build the maps, as they would make the maps look good while also making sure they are fit for skywars. There is also a lot of obsidian (which is unmineable for most players). The maps are very big with the middle being VERY far from the player, so they should be shrunk down a lot. I personally really like the design and ideas of the maps, but they are more looks than actual gameplay, in my opinion.

3. The Loot - The loot is VERY bad loot, and I mean VERY. Sometimes I spawn with no sword in my chests, which is pretty much a death sentence. I also get a lot of duplicate loot. Things that I think should be removed are: The duplicate loot, the cakes, raw food and leather/gold armor. The leather and gold because some people can spawn with diamond and iron and just destroy others. Things that I think should be added: more food, player trackers and xp bottles (once lapis is added for enchanting).

4. The Bugs - This is literally just a list of bugs I've found and others found while playing in case staff don't know any of them.

• Remove clearlag. It's skywars so loot should never despawn.
• Remove the water at the bottom, just leave void like every other skywars.
• If you update the water with a block, it falls down into the void.
• The rates for lava and water buckets are pretty low, and should be upped.
• A lot of the kits in /sw kit aren't capitalized smh. (Fixed)
• There is no lapis on the map to enchant with.
• Player collision really shouldn't be on. (it is on sometimes, other times not, It's weird)

5. Remove 1.9 PVP - I really hope this is already planned. It's no question on whether the majority of the server prefer 1.8 or 1.9 pvp. Most of us want 1.8 pvp.

That's it for now. And once again, this isn't a hate thread, just a thread I wanted to make to point out some things that could be improved upon. Thanks to @ajlpikachu for helping me test and write this.

And yes I know that skywars is being worked on, but since we don't know what going to be added, this is just a list of some things that I think should be added. And for the 3rd time, I mean no hate by this thread, and just want to help make Meep Skywars enjoyable for all.

And if you have any suggestions or feedback, let me know and I'll edit the post! Thanks!

Also big thanks to all the people who liked and gave feedback (including Fuzzlr :O) This thread blew up overnight haha.

 

See, this is how you complain about things in order to be heard. I like you. Good job.

Aside from that, I know this is being looked at and stuff. If you have anything specific about kits rn that would be cool.

And yeah 1.9 pvp removal is a plan, not sure about serverwide but for stuff like this yes

 

We released skywars with feedback in mind! Submit kits, make maps in creative plots, make me a list of items you want in chests, ect! The game is for you to enjoi so lets make that happen!

 

Small complaint, but enderpearls spawning 4 at a time is absolutely nuts, especially on starter islands. Another complaint, pretty important one, you can hurt your own teammates. And earlier I spawned on an island that wasn't even a regular starter island

 

Yes, it's already been made by someone else. All we'd have to do is download and apply it. Boom, back to 1.8 PvP.

 

add in stacks of 8, 16, and 32 wood/cobble, its a nightmare when u get no epearls and have to mine ur base.

 

First off when I hear this I get t-t-triggerrdd so I will sound angry.


But listen pal it's not called spam clicking. You know how long it takes in practicing to find the perfect jitter or butterfly click. Its a pain and takes tons of skill. On top of that you also need to focus on hot keying and strafing. It took me over 3 months to get a jitter of 12.7 cps and I needed to pvp everyday to not fall out of practice.

I doubt you can butterfly or jitter. Try to aim and jitter you can't, at least right away. People just get angry and call it spam clicking but its a skill thats hard to learn. And any good 1.8 or 1.7 pvper will easily agree with me.
