Idea Revamp The Mcbrawl Community

No, how about it doesn't exist.

You forget I was a Systems Administrator when Gizmo was a thing.

arguing with you is pointless.
it.
doesn't.
exist.
it.
is.
not.
possible.

If the community has survived this long, it can survive much longer.

 

@chickenputty I just kinda want to put in a small input into your video. (Nice seeing you btw, shows you care). The thing about programing, and I won't pretend I know everything here, is that having programing TEAMS is the MOST important aspect to coding. I have talked to them and they seem really dedicated. I myself have spent hours looking for a bug in my code to have a friend find it in a few minutes, because a second pair of eyes means the difference. I do not agree with the screenshare, that should be more of a volunteering thing. I really dislike being forced to do that and I agree with you on that.

Also with finding volunteers to help go through the servers and moderate, I agree again that it isn't easy finding someone who will not abuse but you just sometimes gotta take a leap of faith with a lot of people. With the /reports, I myself can agree the staff is slow to responding on them, I have been in TS's where moderators where more interested in doing something Non mod related other than checking the possible hacker. (Not naming names) I do not agree with this and I like the idea of not being able to play. I can see why that sucks but it does take a lot of possible abusers away from the table when applying.

With cleaning the chat, encourage the /chatreport a bit more. That is a amazing tool and should be more pushed onto the players.

For people interested for WarZ staff. I myself, (Stupid right), I LOVE being involved with every community. I would actually apply for WarZ if I played it a lot. I am not good at it but when the small occasion I do play, I normally killed by a hacker. I want to be a small part of every community possible and next time I apply I will try my best to jump into WarZ as well Was WildWest to rid of the en-legit players. When it comes to Brawl, I for some reason am just really excited to jump into a game and watch people or just chill out. I don't really PvP or do much game wise other than get other players amped up to play. So you got a volunteer here for your WarZ!

@LuckyPop This post is more of a rant, I do agree with a lot of what you say. It will take everyones effort to heal what is broken. All we can do right now is keep playing and spread the word about Brawl.

@chickenputty You should slow down on the projects. I think more programmers should be shifted into the old projects since that's where the players are.
With the builders, I have talked to a few (Still not naming names). They don't do anything really, Not saying ALL of them don't do anything, but some of them don't do much. Example. WildWest, the houses are amazing but everything else is repetitive and just dull. Make a rebel base in a cave! Add some spark to it! Make the map worth going over. I mean, a huge chunk of the map isn't even explored! Oh there is a few building here and there but make HUGE rewards for exploring, Diamond armor, illegal guns! All kinds of cool stuff. Make them map worth exploring, the builders would be pretty busy. Add more minigames to minecraft party, do more build contest (Yes there is one atm, but do more! Find more builders that way... ect.).

 

Good to see someone who cares returning to the community. I agree with everything in this post except the adding a new map. The warz community is currently not big enough to play actively on a new map, but if it grows, then yes.

Good job lucky!

 

I would . Some people would jump to help a dying game they love. I can name a few too, other than myself. If you want their names I could name a handfull.

EDIT: You don't play the games yet you moderate. That's saying a lot to what you said, I can see a lot of staff quitting because they can't play. I say what ever, Let people who CARE a lot join the staff and do what they can to help.

 

At 5:50, you state that all the coders are working on different projects.

I'm confused. Wouldn't it be more beneficial to have all coders working on the SAME project, which would help get that out quicker, fix all the bugs, and generate more income (depending on the gamemode) Wouldn't it also help in the speed of other gamemodes. If all coders work on War 2.0, how quickly could it be busted out compared to just one? Sure the other gamemodes won't be getting attention, but you guys will be finishing the new gamemodes quicker, which, as I stated, possibly generate more income and make the community happy?

If I recall, War 2.0 was announced in 2013. Here we are 3 years later, still not done?

If you had multiple coders working on War 2.0 from the day it was announced, I'm sure if they all worked hard enough, Brawl could've had it out within a year.

EDIT; WarZ has recently been receiving a lot of "Lambos" aka Speed Hackers.

Is it possible to make a simple plugin that will not allow you to go over the speed of Speed 1 (Sugar) while walking, but you are able to still grapple?

 

They teach coders in college to work together as a team. Not meaning anything by that, just pointing out it is important

 

Advertising is a very difficult thing to do with a server like WarZ

The server has been composed of basically the same group of players for the past several months. As a result, there hasn't been anyone new because WarZ is only fit for a specific group of people.

You can't receive an influx of players on a server like WarZ because the play style is so different. New players won't come on and know what 'comboing' is or be able to grasp the concept of it very easily, so it's difficult to understand the concept of how the meta of the game works when you're a new player, and you can also take into account how completely uneventful the server is if you're a non donor.

That's why WarZ was very successful in it's early stages, because the meta of the game was very simple to understand so any player, new or old, can come on and fit in easily. This also made the server quite enjoyable for non donators as well because there would be 40-50 people on per WarZ server.

So, what is the solution to making WarZ great again?

• Archive the current WarZ by significantly cutting the amount of servers that exist by roughly a half or so. Also do any last minute changes and requests on WarZ so players will be satisfied and then ultimately cut development on the server fully
• Have a developer on the team dedicate their time to working on and constructing the new WarZ. Keep in mind that it would be different from the current server by drastically limiting the pay to win aspect, make the game easy for people to pick up on, and whatever else is necessary to make the new server enjoyable for the comminity. This also makes advertising much more ideal for a server like this because it would be fresh and for the other reasons listed above.

Finally, in the end, we would have the archived WarZ server still able to be played and the new fresh WarZ able to be played as well thus making everyone satisfied

 

Would you like to screenshare me? See my downloads? See my history? See my versions, see my files? Go for it. Won't find anything.

I agree with you on basically everything stated.

WarZ 20 / 21 should be brought back, but since there's the idea of cutting the amount of servers in half, make it WarZ 6 or 7. When someone joins ANY WarZ Server, have it broadcast

"If you would like to learn how to play, click here" or "Do /play WarZ #"

Then have a detailed explanation of how to play the game. Find Media people who would record themselves teaching how to Combo, Strategize, Play it Smart, etc.

For Example..

Title: [MC-WarZ] Zone Explanations
Title: [MC-WarZ] Tier Explanations
Title: [MC-WarZ] Item Explanations
Title: [MC-WarZ] How to Combo
etc. etc.

Sure Shayne made a video a while back on "How To: WarZ" but we can't forget how long ago that was, and how different the community is. Give an in depth explanation.

Use the Wiki for the form of the videos. Go by the titles of each Wiki Page for MC-WarZ and put it into a video. Put a disclaimer at the front "This information is from the MC-WarZ Section of the Brawl Wiki. If you would like to read about it instead of watch a video on it, go to the link in the description."

Plain and simple, getting the point across, maybe adding some humor in there, and have some fun with it.

 

Comboing was really a... donor thing from the beginning. I prefer no comboing at all.

 

Can't classify Comboing as a "donor thing" seeing as all ranks can do it. Donors are the main ones that know how to combo because they have donor friends who taught them.

Have a video teaching EVERYONE how to combo, so not only a small portion of the community knows how to play.

EDIT; I've heard rumors about WarZ 2.0 not having comboing, so you can wait for that.

 

I am, Can't wait for it. It's more a donor thing because donors are the main players. White names aren't really... a thing. Not saying this to sound one sided. I've played both sides. Being a donor with a donor team is 100% over powered. I've been killed by fresh spawned donors because of the tp powers. I couldn't rush 4 guys with pistols but they can rush me and die with no problem. Donors get more chances to practice and use it is what I am saying.

 

Hi my name is Admiral and I have no idea what's going on but I agree with @chickenputty

 

What does it make you tink i have a botnet dalton? You've been saying this alot lately & even attacked me for this.
I can tell you that i don't OWN any Botnet/Booter or whatsoever.

 

Can you not just pay some big minecraft youtuber $100 for them to play around on brawl? surely that'll invite a lot more players and you'll most likely make that $100 back and more..

 

It doesn't cost $100 to get them to play...

 

Depends who it is TBH.
This is just my opinion, but I don't think we need a YouTuber with 5 million subscribers to play.

Someone just with 50k-100k could easily be enough. And if not, then expand in the future.

 

Youtubers costs around 1/2k Per video.
