Disclaimer: These are simply rough ideas I’ve found from old documents, threads, and discussions I’ve made; they are not polished, balanced nor complete. I haven’t played this game in ~ a year, so please bear with me if some of my logic is lost to what Raid’s player base feels of the game . These are just my opinions, so don’t get your willy in a knot, thanks.

After observing Raid as an outsider for the past several months and trying to get back into it within the last week or so, I have noticed that A LOT is wrong with the server and that it has lost a ton of players, and most importantly, the fun of it. After talking with several people, we could agree that Raid is no longer the fun, fresh and exciting server it once was. To me, the whole idea of Raid just seems old fashioned and boring it needs a complete rework in my opinion and needs to freshen up the entire gamemode. A rework of it should focus on the things that people love, such as pvp, tracking and team competition, while also bringing in new aspects that make Raid truly unique compared to any other server out there. This, in theory, should spice up the same, monotonous server that’s essentially been the same for years now. The (dedicated) player count has just been declining even since when I was still staff, and something huge needs to happen to Raid to restore it. Note: I do realize that reworking the gamemode will make some players quit, however, it will be better in the long run **if and only if** sufficient advertising is done to promote this new, unique survival server. With this being said, I guess I’ll get into my proposal.

Goal: Give incentive for players exploring features in the game and promote activity / dedication

XP earned by completing custom quests such as building a tracker, killing end dragon, collecting 1k gold, etc

Rewards given per level earned, with milestones giving extra special rewards

Rewards could be gold, exclusive gear, etc

Milestone rewards could be special tag / name appearance, extra warp, exclusive crate or something like that

Goal: High team competition and commitment, high advertising feature

Have a “season” ranking system where the season / map will last a specific amount of time

Each team will earn points by killing other teams, claiming bounties, and raiding

Team points will also be achieved by individual player scores (ie gold, etc)

More details below

Goal: Promote raiding, tracking, and competition

Each player will be able to summon a “core” that will allow them to instantly warp from a personal warp set

This core will be deleted if the warp is deleted, and set if a warp is set

If another team destroys your core, your team will have their points stolen and given to the team who broke your core

You or your team mate cannot break your own core

To avoid “farming” of raid points, you can only break one person’s core every 72 hours (think of more ways to prevent farming)

Make farming points of any type having your team disqualified from the contest + have an easy way to track this.

The team with the most points will win an actually valuable prize at the end of the season (cash or something)

This will attract people very well if the prize is something externally valuable

Goal: Promote rivalry and pvp

Use a command to set a bounty on a player, and have another command to track current bounties (+ see new spawn section)

Bounties would essentially be paying someone to go and kill them for you by using gold

Bounties will fail after X amount of days, returning the gold to the person who set it if their victim wasn’t killed

Shows the bounty on the person similar to ROGUE on WW

Todo: find ways to prevent farming of this or sneaky ways to claim it (possible?)

Goal: Keep things fresh, exciting, and competitive

Have events every 2-3 days similar to Koths that will have a /event warp to them or something

Prizes / loot gained, and team points for winners

Last man standing, breach the fort against OP mobs, tower race thing, etc

End cartel capture

Whoever captures the cartel for the longest time of the day wins points per day

Yes, people could afk here, but you can just warp and kill them, perhaps bringing more pvp to the end

Make the end custom if possible to have features that promote pvp and activity there in general

Goal: Provide income for Brawl + make ranks actually valuable

If possible, say **** EULA and have all rank info in spawn instead

Have a kit command (not as often or OP as factions, but still worth something)

/Portal command to transfer dimensions easily

Saving % of xp on death

Etc.

Individually purchased, monthly allowance of them with ranks, prizes for things

Different tiers of them with different loot

Monthly ones, more expensive / valuable ones etc, "series" such as pvp pack, etc

Note: People love crate keys; they are fun to open, and somewhat addictive definitely need to add them (can you get away with naming them “cosmetic keys”?)

Sick animations for warping (like skins if you will)

Purchase boss fights

Custom bosses that have epic loot and are fun to fight

Purchasable events

Update koths somehow

Do research to see why people complain / suggestions

See if there is a way to update tracking

Make easier to learn and more interactive maybe?

Add an ingame calculator for math / coord stuff

Major source of frustration for people learning it

Damn degenerates (I’M KIDDING)

Rework Boosters

Uninteractive, generic, and not too valuable atm

/Base command

One time use to create a small starter sky base for noobs to be informed + have a starting point in the game

Spawn resets daily up to 500 blocks out, then have another 250 out from there that resets weekly

The 250 area is where the sky bases would be

Equipped with a bed, furnace, etc but most importantly signs explaining what to do

Have a “glade” sense of spawn

Safe haven full of resources

Have a farm with food (replenishing like the WW crops)

Helps noobs a bit / takes away from some of the boring grind of MC

Black smith

Minor custom enchanted tools sold here

Spend X amount of gold to gain the enchantment

Ie a pickaxe that digs a 3x1 area for you, Axe that cuts entire trees down, armour that gives fire resistance etc

Bounty hunter cantina

Yes, star wars

Have a place visible for all bounties set and the prices for each person

Perhaps you need to bring the players head (which will drop with the bounty set) to claim the prize

MUST have music playing in it

Mainly for fun, not anything serious

Other features to the spawn?

Make exiting the “glade” dangerous

Can’t just walk back in

Traps maybe outside, pvp enabled etc

Thank you for reading my post. I hope some discussion can be made about it - I am open to hearing other suggestions working off of mine and would love to hear if the feelings I'm facing with Raid right now are shared. Again, please be aware that these are just rough, incomplete ideas, and that this is a REWORK of the entire Raid idea - old principles and ideas are NOT the focus of this proposal - creating a fun and new survival server is. I understand if this is not a popular idea, but again, this is my opinion on the current status of Raid.

Cheers.

Great ideas! I've always thought that spawn should be more interactive! Anyone remember years ago when there were furnaces and crafting tables at spawn? Also the under the seas spawn map is just a big pointless and obnoxious

Under the sea spawn, there is a pig spawner, and a few regenerating blocks - This allows new players to get a few resources before heading out into the world, giving them a better chance. Why do you feel this is pointless?

I just mean that all the mountains and design features are pointless.

With the new line-up of custom kits, I feel as if the incentive to go under the spawn is kind of lacking.
