"The new server is bad"

Remove Rares to have a balanced skyblock

 

Sorry, but in my opinion I think the new server is very boring. This is my opinion. I believe this server came out to early because it does have a lot of issues still. Even though the server is okay, I still believe it isn't the best possible server which could have been made. I think that there isn't enough good, unique features as you can find many of them on other servers too. In addition, this classic server is much more fun and exciting and at times more people play classic but it is to consider that classic is very unique from other servers. In my opinion, the classic server is much more fun than the new one. When I play the new server I get bored really easily whereas, the old one had more to do. I do understand it is new and things like skin competitions, trade shops, games and more will take time to be build however, I still don't believe this is why I find it boring. Also, moderators are too much. What I mean by this is that, moderators keep banning, warning and being a bit bossy. I do realise this is there job and they help to make the place much better but still they ruin the whole experience and moderators don't do the best job sometimes (not all) In conclusion, I believe that the old server was better and that the new server needs more unique features and some more time to improve. Touching on MikaMelody's point that people are becoming over powered and some people have 100+ diamonds too. Rares are making skyblock unbalanced. Before I go, adding to my moderators bit, what I mean is that I wrote something in the chat that is not bad to say or not illegal chat feature but because the moderator found it annoying , she asked me to stop. It shouldn't be that moderators do things like this. Thank You for reading my response to krissy

 

Some people play to trade rares, some people play to build. I don't see how people becoming "over powered" will result in an unbalanced skyblock. Personally, I love trading and I don't find myself being affected in any way when I see people having 100+ diamonds.

Trading rares are a big part of Skyblock for some people. Maybe u can enlighten me what do u guys mean by a "balanced skyblock" . The economy is never balanced lol. Naturally, people who work harder will be richer (or crafty-er)

After all, they removed the way to grind iron, gold, emeralds. I guess u can say that the economy is going to stabilize soon?

 

I think there were/are many major problems in the release of a "new" skyblock:

1) "Fresh Skyblock" - This post was made on July 4th 2017, 215 days later the server was released. Before the release I think the server was averaging at 150 people online at its peak times, after the announcement many people quit, probably thinking it would be a month at most before it will be released. This killed the player base of skyblock in general.

Yes they wanted to make it "perfect" and "bug free" before they released it but wouldn't you release it when you know its nearly or basically ready to release rather then in the midst of development?

2)

I'm pretty sure no1 has been given elytra wings

the "new features", nearly nothing has changed from the old sky block they added custom starter islands which, with the resources anyone could make, they added changing biomes, which biomes used to be something actually valued such as swamp.
3) I think they changed something from a passive server trying to turn it competitive which I don't think skyblock is about



This is all my opinion however and I THINK that it was overhyped and the release and everything was unorganized

 

Trading rares was a big part of skyblock, and still is on the classic server. On the new server, it does not have as big a role in the economy thus far.

I wholeheartedly disagree with your statement that 'people who work harder will be richer(or crafty-er). There exists no viable situation where a greenie who is on for the same amount of time as a high level donor can ever surpass him in wealth. This is part of the reason why donor kits and perks were nerfed.

 

I personally think the server has been created for the hype so people start playing again cause as we now the server died during the winter with barely 30 players (aka the addicted 20 and 10 greenies) or for the people who quit because the old server was boring for them to hype them to a "new beginning" which CLEARLY didnt work.
The only difference is that there are different rank colors and hoppers are enabled. Instead of making a brand new server to add hardcore mode or hoppers they couldve just added them to the old one which wouldve made more sense. What people are trying to say with this

is that its just a disappointment for alot of us.
*edit and the people who were banned previously didnt get unbanned so Im struggling to understand what they mean by a new start

 

I completely agree! When I first joined I thought, ok, there should be no kits and everyone should have one spawner. That way everything anyone has is obtainable by anyone. But the groups of rich donors have already formed and it's exhausting.

 

The only time skyblock was "balanced" was wayyyy back in the day when the highest donation level was $100 donor. No inflation on anything and the barter system was actually pretty good to the new people that would join.

 

The only thing I dislike in the new server is that the island is deleted. I find nothing else to complain about. It is a great server, and the mad rare collectors should just wait. Some have already shown up, I have seen people selling creeper heads on chat. Rares are coming back.

 

Well said

 

Personally, I am preferring the new server to classic. I've enjoyed the fresh start where it can be aggravating at times that I can't just go to my grass chest and buy whatever new material I need for my island.. I have to wait, or earn the grass to expand.

Whilst I agree that rares have already begun to be traded, that is something which is found on most economically based servers - be it "god" armour or a head, it is still in high demand and considered a rare. It's no more competitive than classic was, and at the moment less so.

It would also be a little boring for everyone if everything worked perfectly to begin with, otherwise there wouldn't be room for community participation through suggestions (Talking about minor bugs here).

All in all, the new server is providing people with fun, be it 20 or 30 people, they're still players which the server can be considered a success by.

 

They released the server too early is all I’m saying. And I already found a glitch in mob arena (not during battles) which I will not be posting to the public.

 

I believe this too

 

I would Certainly agree! Make a few upgrades to the new server and maybe just maybe one or two upgrades to the old sever! Their practically the same but with a few twists and changes!!!!
