    Alright, X is out, yay! The only problem is that the new maps are super laggy.

    I've been playing CTF for about 3 hours this afternoon/evening, and I've only been able to play on 3 maps. Halo V, Night Raid II, and Dragon Valley. Halo V and Night Raid II, I can't go in the flag room, or else I get 1fps. All the other maps in the update, I can't play. They all drop me down to 0-5fps. It's really upsetting, since CTF is my favorite game out there to play. I'm eventually going to have to quit since the maps are too laggy for me. I can play on almost every one of Wave 9's maps.

    The only computer I have is a 6 year old Toshiba laptop that I got for 7th grade graduation.

    I know people are going to tell me to get Optifine, so this part is for you. I use Optifine, the most minimal settings possible: render distance at 2, no particles, no fog, all the quality settings are at "off", rain and snow are off, everything is either off or minimal. I also have a 4x4 texture pack I use.

    Basically what I'm trying to say is this. I'd love it if the maps that are created and implemented don't involve a ton of glass, or they don't consist of a giant castle/build. It would make it so people with super old/bad computers, like myself, would be able to continue playing. Not everybody who plays can afford a $2,000 gaming computer.

    Thanks for reading this. I doubt it made any sense, kinda threw this together rather quickly.

    Edit: In my years of playing Minecraft, I've found that flowing lava or water, and tons of glass lags computers the most. That's why I mentioned not containing lots of glass in maps.

    Seconded. My computer isn't even that bad, and I have Optifine. I was FPS lagless until a few months ago, and I still don't know what changed. It got a LOT worse with Wave X. I originally got ~45, max 100+. Then it changed to ~30, max 90. I now get 10-15, max 20.

    I get lag too, but I never drop below 20 fps with all my settings super fancy. Perhaps your computer just isn't equipped to handle multiplayer gamemodes?

    I have a 2008 iMac and get constant 60 fps. So... Don't see why other computers can't do that lol

    I play on a desktop Mac (2012 I think) and it works about the same.

    Now here's the thing. I can play HG when running around in fields, mesas, and snow biomes. I can play SG on certain maps. I can't go into jungles or roofed forests, on multiplayer nor single player.

    I agree, in my opinion, the number one priority for the server "Brawl" has to be to stabilize the lag with in it. The lag is a major problem that still hasn't been fixed yet. Literally, I'm not a type of person that knows how to run a server, but come on, lag has to be fixed very soon.

    That's the issue: your computer isn't equipped to handle anything mildly intensive. Maps can't not include mildly laggy structures: that'd be very bland.

    If you like I can make you a 1x1 texture pack.

    1x1? I've never heard of a 1x1 xD If you can make one, that'd be great. O:

    Also, in my opinion/to be honest, Wave X wasn't that big that I had expected. Most of the maps aren't that good like Wave IX. Kindof a disappointment if you ask me. :/
