A rant

Hello! I've been part of this community since the very beginning and i have noticed a lot of things change for the better, but also a lot of things for the worse, which is the reason i don't play anymore.
Before i begin, i just want to tell the staff that i don't want you to remove this thread if you find a reason to, please edit or lock it instead.

The servers problems:
Mc-war was a brilliant idea and it was something very different and innovative from the other minecraft servers, it was fun and updated often which added a ton of replayability. That is no more. I feel that instead of adding new servers, you should actually listen to what the community wants. A BIG part of the community has asked for a new war update (2.0) for over a year, maybe even two, but instead you decide to start working on new servers, which we did not ask for. Quality servers over quantity. We know you started working on it now which is great, but it's far too late, i'm sure that if you actually started coding 2.0 when you teased us with it, a lot of people would of kept on playing, but instead a lot of the older players quit due to problems not being fixed.

There are tons of fantastic ideas on the forums, but they are not being added. It feels completely pointless to post a idea in "server ideas", it even feels pointless to make this thread as i know that nothing is going to change at all. Staff even replies to the threads but not one ****ing thing has been implemented.

Then the lag. I feel like brawl earns a lot of money from OUR donations, but instead of using that money to actually improve the servers, they keep on hosting the servers from potato computers in chaploo's basement. Take CS:GO (not a flawless game by any means, but they are doing their best to fix their issues) as a example, they have a big coding team that makes the game, and after the game is released their team is solely dedicated to update and finetune the game, and their salary is being paid by the gamers that play their game. A solution for this is to have different locations for different servers. For example, server 1-3 is in north america, 3-6 is in south america, 7 is in scandinavia, 8-10 is in europe, 11-13 is in africa and asia. That would give the players their best possible connection.

Another thing is how incredibly pay 2 win the server is, nuking with a weapon with scavenger is FAR FAR easier than nuking without it, then the gamemode infected is ruined because 15 ray gun and cbow spammers sit in their corner and spam away into the zombies spawn, followed by saying how eZ the game was and bragging with their score. I feel like the donator items should be nerfed, and players who devote a lot of time onto the servers should be able to get the items for free for their dedication.

Then the skill gap between "pros" and new players has become so huge because of op clans with the best players. Clans should be for a social aspect, not for getting the big advantage. Take the old FLUX for example, nearly all the good players were in it, whilst the "bad" players are trying their best to get a kill with their ak-47 and not get bombarded with the nukes and cbow arrows flying in.
I think a good solution would be that if there is more than 5 members of the same clan online, they should be split between the teams to even out the game.

There are many flaws with the community itself, but i know thats not something the staff can do something about as you cant ban someone for being a cocky asshole, thats something the players need to solve themselves.

There are a lot more problems than this, but i don't have the time to type it all.

Thanks for reading.

That's 4589 rants that hasn't opened up the admins eyes, hopefully this one will

 

Well, as i said above in the thread, the fact that they are doing it now is great, but it's FAR too late. We really couldn't care less about getting new servers as we know they will be another server which will be broken as ****, but won't be fixed. The point of a tease is that you hype us for something that actually exists, not saying some cool things that we want and instead give us something else.
My grand kids will enjoy 2.0 when it comes out though

Rants has been posted for years now and they haven't changed a single thing, they haven't opened up their eyes yet.

 

Exactly, altough a few staff members rated my post agree. Props to them!
