    That will NEVER happen ! HG is not a gun gamemode , just because you suck doesn't mean you have to ruin it for thousands of people .

    I'm sorry but that is a brawl thing, Brawl players love guns and those kind of plugins, McPvP players prefer pure skill and not insta kill weapons like y'all do. Change was made to McPvP because it was getting money hungry like most servers do. Plus the developers didn't have much to do since most of their servers were already perfect. The reason they changed it was because they could...

    personally i dont disagree with you but i dont think that your reasons are the main reason why hg was as successful as it was in 2012. It was called "Hunger Games" and notice how the highly successful film "Hunger Games" came out in 2012???? welllll guess what! The last hunger games movie comes out this year and it will cause an immediate love of everything Hunger Games once again. We just need to act on it and somehow legally use the movie to attract more mc players. Then it will cause another trend of hg once again.

    I agree with no guns. It's a bad idea to do that. As far as no instakill weapons go... McPvP can't exactly plead not guilty to that.

    I agree with the Guns/Vehicles point you made , +1 . As for what you said about MCPVP i disagree with , MCPVP was never perfect ... Regardless i dont think you can coin the term "money hungry" in this particular situation ... Thats like saying that your average employ is money hungry for wanting a raise in their wage , MCPVP was a business and needed money to support their growth .

    Of course but you need to note they were growing fast. They were already gaining enough money from the ranks trust me. Most players were spending around 20 bucks per month on it. They got a little money hungry like most businesses do to grow.

    Like i said you cant use the term "money hungry" for MCPVP , a business selling a product to support them selves and try to stay afloat is not money hungry , "money hungry" is used with the implication that their monetary "situation" if you will was healthy enough for them to make profit of their service , that was obviously not the case all they were doing was attempting to maintain themselves for abit longer . That said no offense but i highly doubt you have any insight into the economical situation of MCPVP , and trust me 20 bucks a month x 100 or so isnt that much considering the amount of money they needed .

    Brawl ≠ McPvP

    At the time, McPvP was 15 times bigger than Brawl is now. I doubt Lionsgate would waste their time on Brawl.
    Because McPvP thought that HG needed change just because they wanted to change something. In reality, nothing needed to change. (BadBoyHalo didn't respond either :c)

    Its hard to explain. Its all the things that make HG frustrating now put together that made 2012 HG awesome.

    Also, with that guns suggestion... although I don't think it should take over HG, it could always be tried out. I think it could be quite interesting to have a HG with more advanced gear.

    I don't find anything about it frustrating O_O
    I like HG with more kits and more things. Updates and all that jazz...
    I guess it would be easier for me to understand you if I knew what frustrates you about HG today...

    OP teams, OP traps and OP towers. They don't happen so often, so people become less used to them so when they do occur, they're a lot more frustrating.

    I feel in order to get new players they need to make it so you can tower/trap effectively. Being able to tower and trap is great for new players because it gives them a way to win if they don't have insane souping skills. This instant-kill thing at 40 mins is the worst thing yet. The pit was better, but not the best. The best idea I could come up with was shrinking boarders and ceiling. That way, people won't get completely teleported from their trap/tower, but the game won't take too long. Also, Brawl should update HG to 1.9 as soon as possible because new players will be looking for pvp servers to test out the new combat features.

    Agreed a lot with this. Back in the day, hunting was very tricky to do as every other player was either in a tower or trap, and this made the gameplay more diverse - you'd get regular soup PvP half the time and a different type of fight where you'd have to use your instincts and survival skills to take someone out. That's what made it more fun - now, you get regular soup PvP most of the time and only occasionally you get towers and traps.

    Also, since 1.9 only adds new items and stuff, updating will be very, very easy. If they change Hardcore Games back to Hunger Games, they'll get a lot more people to play the server.

    Make Kangaroo die from fall
    Remove forcefield.
    Gladiator can only arena if 2+ ppl around

    and we should be good back to old HG

    Maybe even revert endermage so they can mage randomly but players still get the 5 seconds invulnderbility.

    I don't think changing 2 kits and forcing feast winners to run for hours just to get to each person in the map will revive HG.

    My opinion is they just need to revert the name back to Hunger Games, so many new players will join
