    Well, after playing for a day, I realized how much I hate this one thing. I don't know if this can be fixed, but it's absolutely awful.

    So, let's say we are on D-Day and I am on blue and you set up on the cliff edge with a sniper. The time before you can actually see players is when the red team pushes up halfway on the beach, even when you can see the other persons spawn. Now, in my mind, I feel like the render distance of players should match the bullet drop-off distance (When the bullet no longer travels and just falls). It's quite rediculous to only be able to see players 50 blocks in front of you when clearly you use a sniper for LONG RANGE. That's the whole point. "Engage enemies from a distance", but with the shortened player rendering, you have to make only close range, snap decision shots.

    OR you could just spray down a tunnel with dissa on express like @Exotic_Bread scrub (jk don't hurt me).

    So, I don't know if this is fixable, but I'd just like to rant about it.. Who knows, maybe this will the first thing Brawl actually implements from people's suggestions.

    Mini-Mini-Rant:
    I mean comon, have you seen any ideas from the War Suggestions section get implemented? Nuuuupe. Just get rid of it and re-name it "Crushed Dreams" xD.

    This is all on Minecraft's side, this has nothing to do with Brawl, although it is annoying.

    Sadly, but I wish they would code something to fix it. I mean it almost completely destroys the meaning of a sniper.

    Nice call out but I don't think anything can be done about it.

    I recently had a very frustrating experience on war concerning this issue. Map was carrier, and this one dude on the red team sat alll the way at the back of the map. You know, where the blue's flag is--there's this sort of lane that leads directly to the red's right side? Anyway, he sat so far back with a dissa and spammed the **** out of everyone stupid enough to try to walk in that general direction. Render distance was so low that nobody could see him; he ended up double nuking our entire team. Then he called me a targeter when I flanked him through the tunnel on blue's far left (which was being camped by his super armor, skully-spamming friend ). Go figure. I remember thinking to myself, " Is this seriously what war's become? People stoop this low for a number on their profile?" If so, it's sad, really.Very sad.


    m8 you should know better than anyone that I like rushing with my famas. >:V xcept on that one map.

    Oh, I could preach a hella lot about this, but what good would it do?
    The majority of the Mc-war community's been indoctrinated with this "KDR IS EVERYTHING" mentality, where kids'll camp and spam because that's what everyone else seems to be doing. They look up to the 100+ people. And when they see them doing these types of things, of course they're gonna imitate. The cycle repeats itself.


    Anyway back on topic.

    No, this is a rant post, so all this is on-topic. And yes, newer Mc-War players do idolize these kind of play styles, but keep in mind, a lot of this could change with updates. As @Gynamo said in his rant, Quality over Quantity for servers. If we keep adding more and more servers and game modes, the community will disperse, creating a vacancy of player numbers on the best coded ones (War and WarZ). If Brawl actually fixed things and took suggestions, things would spark up again, creating a whole new range of players, skill and strategy wise. This would make the server have less of the skill gap it has now. You're either really good, or really bad. Now you're right, ranting about these things won't do any good, but maybe it will open up some of the players eyes to realize what Brawl is trying to do with it's community. For example, you're a ginnea-pig, testing ice-cream flavors. If they keep feeding you the same flavor, but making it better everytime, you give that flavor a high rating at the end of the tests. But if they feed you 20 different Alpha flavors, you're not gunna like some of them, making the success rate of the flavors something like 15/20. Compare that to the 10/10 you gave the one flavor, and it seems like you get a higher success rate perfecting that one flavor. It gets confusing, but in the end, all this means that we, as Minecraftians, want QUALITY, functioning servers, not 20, flimsy, half-assed servers. My fingers are tired from ranting, time to take a break...

    I am dissapointed that kids look upto random other kids on a minecraft server because they are over level 100. When I was a kid my role model was Optimus Prime.
