The only way to continue to sell kits

I don't think mojang would allow that, coz although everyone is able to pick the kit that someone chooses, they are still limited in their options, whereas the elite or whatever still can pick from 20 other kits

 

No this is allowed. The point is to not get the advantage, and with everyone having the same access them it should work. I dislike this idea though. My elite friends could just let me play whatever kit.

 

Elite would likely have to be changed for HG for this to be plausible, though I do see it as a viable option. Problem with elite would be that everyone would just get all of the kits, making buying kits somewhat pointless.

 

I feel that this would ruin the game. For example, if someone goes stomper and another person goes endermage, everyone is going to know that there is an endermage-stomper team. Plus, players will go endermage so they can mage those players down, which kinda ruins towers/traps. I think it would just be better if HG implements an XP system like mcpvp and offer server-wide XP boosts for money.

 

It would be useful to know that there was a kaya in the game, or a fisherman, or a switcher, or an acrobat.

 

I think that a xp boosters would be good because you could make it so you get very little xp and then people would need an xp booster to level up. (Level up to choose 1 kit you will get)

 

So... what if someone chooses their kit at the last moment, specifically so no one else can have it? I think this would simply degrade into everyone waiting until the last moment to choose their kit.

 

I think it would you begin with 1 kit. Then you level up and you need boosters because you get so little xp otherwise. Then when you level up you got to choose 1 kit.

 

.....
That feels like the worst kind of cheating. I mean, seriously? I thought we were gonna be talking about how to actually make it work, but you just wanna fly by on the technicalities.

 

How else would Brawl make money to survive?

 

It makes it technically EULA compliant, but it doesn't really make any difference if people only choose their kit at the very last moment. :/ I just don't like the idea of totally bypassing it like that. I mean, I get why. I guess I'm just not the type of person who would want to get by on that.

I guess this is why I'm not running a server. I don't like to feel like I'm cheating it, but I would need the money.
I should probably just leave this conversation, cause it doesn't really apply to me anymore. I won't have anything helpful to contribute if its going in that direction.

 

Good news, your integrity doesn't really seem to be compromised. That'll be great if you want to have a future job in a convent or some sort of pious habitat.



For what it's worth, there will still be players that will choose their kit right away. It's not as if Kangaroos in games are any sort of secret; a Kangaroo has nothing to gain by waiting until last second to choose kit, because everyone uses Kangaroo for some reason.

Many many many servers are trying to get by as best as they can because of the EULA. The biggest servers are "living on the edge", by using business models that are just within EULA boundaries.

"You can get a Mythical chest after a few weeks of playing games on our server, but why do that when you can just pay 4 dollars and get one? But we're still compliant with EULA! You don't have to pay real money!"
