    Regarding the new Survival Games server:
    First of all, since it is a seperate server, shouldn't it have it's own forum?

    Another thing is that I find that no one really plays that. If not fully removed, atleast 2-4 of the serves allocated to that gamemode should be used for different gamemodes.

    Oh! I have a question: What the hell happened with McBrawl wanting to have unique gamemodes? I mean, SG is one of the most mainstream gamemodes ever known to mankind! And when you top it up with it being rather unpopular, I'm starting to get confused with McBrawl's unique game policy and image. The only three servers being uniqe is WarZ, war and Minestrike. Thats what? Half of the servers?

    Idk, maybe they have unique features within the gamemodes? I haven't seen a creative server where you apply for ranks like world edit.

    On it.

    Remember, SG was just invented, there is not even an official announcement yet. Take Skywars and Pvp Survival as an example, they are both classical gamemodes, yet they easily reach 100 players and more.

    MinecraftParty is unique, McMOBA will be unique. The 'classical' gamemodes like PvP Survival, SG and Skywars have been invented because they are very popular and we want to offer our players a diverse experience.

    I don't think we have a policy of only and exclusively making unique servers.

    McMoba doesn't exist yet...

    We don't have a policy of being unique? When a normal player suggests we add a mainstream gamemode, it gets bashed up in a matter of seconds by lots of people that say brawl only adds unique servers.

    Truthfully, think about it. Why is McBrawl popular? Because of unique servers like McWar, WarZ, Party and Minestrike. Yourtubers like BajanCanadian have never gone to SurvivalPvp, Creative or Skywars, because there are millions of other servers that are mainstream. McBrawl wouldn't be alive without unique servers, but if we keep adding mainstream servers, new people wouldn't want to go on mainstream servers, but rather popular servers that are mainstream.

    The simple fact is: fpsHG needed to be either completely redone or scrapped for something new. With the classics we have intended to release and our new found goals at completely polishing the servers (thus, making a better experience for the players), we made the decision to dump fpsHG for a superior plugin.

    While it is new and quite different, there's still a lot on the drawing board and it's not like we're closed to ideas; after all, this is a game for the community -- we want you guys to like it, and we are prepared to make changes to better suit you all.

    As far as unique content goes, these classic servers do not infringe on that whatsoever. We have PLENTY of unique content planned and the only factor in its release is time. And I'm not going to ask you all to be patient, since I know you've waited long enough for things such as McWar 2.0. But -- if you pay attention -- you'll see change: that's what I've promised from the beginning and (so far) I haven't deviated from that.

    Those classical gamemodes can be found on many servers because their concept is good and many players like them. Whats so bad about McBrawl offering those popular and classical gamemodes as well? We didn't remove any unique gamemodes to replace them with classic gamemodes, we just added them onto the servers we had before, making McBrawl more diverse and interesting.
    Youtubers who visit unique servers might make servers popular, but it is even more important that the PLAYERS enjoy their time on our servers. Many, many players like the classic gamemodes, so why shouldn't they be able to play them on McBrawl?

    Roke has a very good point, the players are what McBrawl was built around. The reason for making survival and sg is because we want a diverse game playing experience. You can play both the classics and our new games that we take the time to invent. it's even more important to notice that our classic games are different than most. Survival always has new events being thought of, new maps like every week for skywars and our SG can be played on both regular or with guns. We try our best to create new games but it's kind of hard running a server with almost 10000 people on everyday. please be patient and there will be newer games in the future. Btw when is Kitbrawl coming back? and what is McMOBA?

    No. You don't understand... The old FPShg is not like any other survival games server. Now we are like everyone else. I mean like wtf. Even my friend when playing a match for the first time (New FPShg) said it was like all the others...

    Why did this thread go from a suggestion to a bash session between staff and players?

    Alright, thanks for the information! But to stop the classic servers being a complete carbon copy, I think adding a unique Brawl twist to it, like the sponges on Skywars, will attract more players. But seeing as that's what you've always done, you'll probably already do :grinning:

    Just to clarify if anybody misunderstood me above: I'm not against adding servers based on a mainstream cocept, but I don't think adding complete copies without any unique features is the way to go. However, since Brawl are going to add small twists to it, it's all looking pretty cool now :smile:
