    Anyways, on topic. I really would like to see this server, but there are some problems.
    1. The Smart Pistol
    Sure, it's kind of like aimbot. We could easily make players aware that it isn't aimbot, but how would you know when it's locked on to a player, and when the player is standing still so that it can lock? It might be kind of confusing, and if we used a chat indication, your chat could be spammed. The main problem is the lock on system.
    2. Pilot movement abilities
    In the game, you can double jump, wall run, and even fly for a bit. Now, double jumping is easy to take care of. Wall running and that fly boost? Not really. While the fly boost would take some time to correctly balance, it is able to be done. The wall running, however, would cause a pretty big problem. How would that be done? Also, you can like hang off walls. Right...
    3. Titans
    Well, this is kind of obvious. Using the spectator feature of 1.8, we can probably have the ability to enter a Titan and control it. However, ejection will be annoying, and the weaponry and defenses will be annoying as well. For instance, the shield that grabs projectiles and when you let go, throws them back at the enemy. How will that be done? Many other things, too.
    4. Epilogue
    The epilogue feature is one of the coolest new and fresh features I have seen in the game so far. While most shooter games just end, here, there's an actual ending to the fight. Now, how would this be done? Players would have to know where the drop ship will land, and we would need a way to spawn in the drop ship itself. After that, the winning team would need to be able to destroy the drop ship if they damage it enough.
    Those are a few of my concerns, but I really would like to see this server as an McBrawl server. It would be a great addition to our servers.

    All valid points... so lets brainstorm!

    1. The Smart Pistol
    I honestly don't know if this is possible, but there is some in way the server can recognize which direction you are looking, maybe we can use that to tell the server that if the player looks at a hostile player for a certain amount of time, (it felt like 3-5 seconds to get the all 3 locks, but I don't know for sure) it will activate the aimbot, let you know in chat, and you can fire. Since i don't see the need for grunts/minions in a MC version, this wont create chat spamming because it takes that that long to lock on. Did that make sense?

    2. Pilot Movement
    I was thinking for the wall running, and the only thing that i have seen in MC that might work is blocks spawning under your feet so you can "walk on air". When you jump within one block of a wall, glass blocks, or even the 1.8 barrier blocks, spawn under your feet (and immediately de-spawn so it doesn't get in the way) for a period of time, so really your just running right beside the wall on a glass (or barrier) block... just a thought though.

    3. Titans
    I haven't done/researched enough about coding to know it the magna-shield or whatever its called would be possible. My guess is as good as yours :/

    4. Epilogue
    Aside from punching pilots into blood pudding as a Titan, this is one of my favourite parts of the game :grinning:. Just very simply, the server could spawn an activated beacon at the pick up site, and the chat would have the countdown. When the ship arrives, the beacon de-spawns, and a pre-built dropship spawns in (Ive done this with programs similar to WE). If you make it to the ship before time runs out, your safe, if not, it de-spawns and your left 4 dead <-(Anyone notice what I did there???)

    What do you think brawler, could the brilliant minds of the men and women of MC-Brawl come together to make this server happen?

    Ok, now my thoughts about it:
    1. The Smart Pistol
    Coding Aimbot in Bukkit is pretty hard, because you have to calculate the rotation that the shooter needs to have to aim on his target. I think it should just be a normal pistol with some extras maybe.
    2.Pilot movement abilities
    WallRunning, DoubleJumping and other stuff is actually possible in Vanilla Minecraft (Snapshot 14w08a+) and i saw that stuff on other servers too already.
    3. Titans
    Golems.
    Right Click to Mount. (Maybe use the "Mob Desguise Plugin/API" for that.)
    Different items for different weapons. Left Click will just summon some "bullets" (for visual-effects only) in front of you and make you invincible for a few seconds.
    4. Epilogue
    Beacon Light or blocks in the air to indicate there the ship is?
    And maybe some invisible mobs on the outside of the ship, so when they are dead the ship would explode.

    True, to be honest, I do not have a Beta Acces to this game, but this has to be an exclusive feature then.
    We are geniuses.

    They do not play a huge part in hard point, but in attrition they actually count towards the team's kill total. I guess you could just use skeletons that would randomly spawn. You can only really die to a grunt if he melees you, you are surrounded by them, or you get double teamed by a pilot and the grunt helps. They are mainly there so you have something to kill when no pilots are around. Specters are actually pretty useful, as you can hack them. They are mainly better grunts who can actually do a lot of damage to titans.
    Plus, I would like to tell everyone that even though the beta of the game came out, there are probably a ton of other features that no one knows about yet. I will get the game, so I will update you all on what else is in the game that is important.

    This would be awesome, but hard to code, may be possible.

    Liar, the game comes out on March 11 for Xbox One and PC :V. You might be downloading the beta, which ended last week I believe.
    I am getting it for the one, just going to point it out.

    This actually sounds like a good idea.

    I imagine this would be very similar to mc-war with probably similar map sizes, though with all the moving around (jumping possible wall jumping etc etc) so yea besides titans this would most likely be very similar to mc-war but I would still like to see this :V
