    Its come to my attention that multiplayer servers seems to be un-population on war. Hopefully this is due to waiting for the update. Anyways, at night I see out of 1120 players , only 60 are on. 40 of them are on server 1. I believe we should cut back on servers so we only have 10.


    Benefits from having 10 servers:

    1. Less lagging servers as we can better fun 10 compared to 20.
    2. You will always have a fully lobby ready to play instead of completely empty lobbies.
    3. The community will definitely be closer and finding people will be easier.
    4. More people to meet
    5. Easier for mods to patrol servers for hackers, glitches, and exploiters
    6. Competitions are more fair and intense
    Downs from having 10 servers:
    1. There is a possibility of servers running out of space
    2. Small maps would become far less

    The benefits out weigh the Downfalls 3 to 1. What do you think of this idea?

    Lag is not due to the amount of servers. but yeah it would save money (like they need too) i don't have a problem with it.

    Well, I certainly do like the idea, and it could cut down the budget for MC-War...
    Well, it could mean that they can afford better servers
    By "Better" I don't mean they are bad, but have higher stats (RAM, etc)

    It's a shame, because it will be impossible to do 1v1s, etc. If this is implemented

    That is a good point though, maybe there could be an Mc-war lobby server, where you can challenge people to small 1v1 matches, hosted on the multiworld plugin...

    I should agree to Sir_Blackalots , cause the server doesent need to have 20 instead you can yust go with 10. And its a rare occasion when the whole 10 servers might be full :stuck_out_tongue:

    As well as all this, One of the reason there is so many servers is so chat can be more 'spaced out'. The broadcasted messages are important on War such as Next Map, Who killed who and whatever. If the servers are more condensed, chat gets much more filled and spammed.

    GreenPeas does bring up a huge factor. Cutting down to a 500 player cap would fill up very quickly in afternoons. I think, considering how much money we take in, we should keep all the servers.

    To counter @GreenPeas_ point, the chat is fine the way it is. I've played on server 1 with 70 people on the weekend always. Its totally fine. Over 50% don't even talk at all. Also @mma0648 brings a good point, once you have done that, the chat size goes down significantly compared to with it on. Another point brought up by a friend on skype...

    • New MVP functions including access to full servers :V
    This brings even more money etc. to the server because MVP is now so desirable.

    Why another option for donors? Think of people who don't donate every month

    It would definitely save a lot of money for the owners...
    But 1v1s aren't that common as far as I can tell. There will probably still be empty servers.
    On server 1, even when all 70 people are on, there is no problem seeing the broadcasts. As long as you are paying minor attention to the chat, you probably won't miss it.

    EDIT: Shouldn't this be under Server Ideas?

    And have the majority of servers be 35v35 cluster****s?
    No thanks.
    Some people like smaller matches (~10v10).
