Ideas to Help Increase The Player Counts/Make HG More Appealing to Players.

Hi,

(Caution: Long thread... Please don't let this prevent you from reading it though because it is very important)

I am not really a big forum guy with posting threads and replying and all, but I felt I needed to get my thoughts and ideas across to the Brawl community. I have been playing HG since the early McPvP days, and I have seen alot of s**t happen. And, as of lately, playing hasn't really been as fun as it really has been through the past couple years. I am not one to completely abandon the HG servers here on Brawl, so I thought I would make a list on ways to improve through a players point of view and this I'm sure would help Brawl's HG revenue increase as well as it's player count on the HG servers. So here I go:

1) Fix the border. I have seen MANY, MANY, MANY players complain about the border. For those of you who don't know, the border starts to shrink after the feast begins and it keeps shrinking until the map has 100 by 100 block dimensions. My idea to fix this would be just get rid of the the border shrinking all together. It ruins player strategies and heavily favors PvP combat.

2) Decrease the amount of time you have to wait in an HG in order for the game to start. This is very frustrating, especially later at night when there tends to be no players online. It is one of the main reasons players don't join HG games because they simply don't want to wait in the lobby for a longer period of time than they should be.

3) HG needs to be more well-rounded. What I mean by this is that nowadays, HG tends to be a giant hardcore KitPvP server. And, it seems to be the best PvPer always wins games (unless there is a team of 3 or they blow up to a creeper, etc.). This can be fixed by nerfing some of the kits that are aimed to destroy towers/trappers (Gladiator, Ninja, Kanga, Grappler), and by fixing the border! A lot of the new players that come on the HG servers don't know how to Soup PvP and that has what the game has basically become nowadays. New players are attracted to HG by having a chance to win the game and being able to effectively play without knowing how to soup pvp. This could be towering, trapping, or hiding. But, adjusting to the needs and likes of newcoming players could absolutely help the player count.

4) Stop adding kits to the game and focus on fixing the ones already made. A lot of thee HG kits are messed up, need reworks, are overpowered and really annoying (Grappler), or simply just useless to gameplay (Woolymorph). Kits need to fixed and balanced to players likings before new ones are made.

5) Add More Staff Members to the HG Team. I'm not saying this because I want to become a staff member, I don't have interest in becoming one. But, the fact of the matter is HG needs more staff. New players often times have no ideas how anything works so the presence of a willing-to-help staff member would be appreciated by the player.

6) Get rid of some of the HG biomes. For example: the Nether biome that appears sometimes. This biome is unneeded and shouldn't even be in HG.

Please consider all of this. HG used to be the top hit at McPvP and was where all the money was made for the McPvP servers. On Brawl, HG isn't nearly as close in popularity at all. By making changes to the players likings, HG popularity will increase without a doubt. Thanks for reading if you actually made it to this point in the thread .
