    Hello Brawlers,

    We've realized that the view distance of other players have been low on all servers that need it (WarZ, Raid, WildWest, Battle Royale). We've decided to raise the view distance of players from 48 blocks to 96 on these servers to see how they perform. Let us know what you think about this change.

    Keep on Brawling,
    Brawl Staff Team

    How about on Wild West? IIRC there was some controversy about the player view distance.

    EDIT: Thread was updated to include Wild West, sick. Nice changes.

    I love the update, because it gives players on raid an advantage when they are raiding. The low view distance + trackers sometimes being slightly off made it hard to raid people while they were online.

    Very happy about this change, it's annoying when you're chasing someone and they go out of render and you have no idea where they have gone. This will certainly make fights much more intense.

    sweet, but can you still do the glitch where the blocks dont load but the players do (basically letting you see what people have)

    Didn't get to try it yet, but I'm positive it'll be good.

    This will definitely make long range weapons more viable in a lot of situations, especially Wild West. Great change imo.

    Good change. I'm tired of running in the open straight into a team of 3 people that were on my compass, but I couldn't quite see them until they were running right at me and shooting lol.

    Great changes. Also, after we tested if we could see eachother from nether echest to sniper tower, I had a fight that involved sniping back and forth between the two buildings. Made for a very fun and interesting fight. :grinning:

    Pretty gamechanging and I'm not really thrilled about it. Regardless, it'll help resolve a bunch of issues on Wild West right now, such as cuffing. I'd love to see potential decreases in weapon prices alongside this. It'll introduce a new aspect of PvP for essentially all gamemodes impacted.

    Glad to see this implemented to Battle Royale, too. Hopefully, this will make the games better.
