If you're lost on what's going on...
I recommend reading this thread: https://www.cubecraft.net/threads/⚠️-notice-were-updating-our-network-to-1-12-2.283171/ . Do it, it takes 5 minutes if not less. Don't be a bum.

Introduction
First thread in a long time, but with the removal of 1.8 planned, I had to make one. I'm sure a lot of people are going to be disappointed with the future roadmap. While they make up a small fraction of the entire player base, it's not exactly that small of a number when placed in terms of Java solely. That said, I want to focus particularly on one group, players from FFA.
There has been the occasional thread from players from the classic FFA community asking for it to make a return. Which didn't exactly matter since there was a 1.8 FFA version made available. Now that, you know, it's going to be a relic of the past, why not consider adding it back? I understand it might not exactly going to be that big of a priority since it's going to make up even less of the Java player total player count. But it's surely a replacement (maybe not for everyone) for die-hard 1.8 mechanic fans and players who still wish to play on Cubecraft.

Here's a quick list of threads/comments from the past asking for it's return:

If that isn't enough, here's a few more reasons why it should be added back!
  • It makes it a lot easier for players to switch to other gamemodes if they want. I personally didn't really like playing on 1.8 FFA because it was annoying for me to switch versions to play games like Minerware, Layer Spleef, and more.
  • Attractive alternative for players who want to try something sorta new. I mean, it's literally FFA, you can't go wrong with it.
  • The kits in that version was probably the most balanced out of all the versions. Even in wings. Of course most players prefer playing with speed. (please don't make it overpowered.)
  • Alchemist was actually to play with due to how pot mechanics worked in 1.9+.
  • When player shopped, they didn't exactly have a huge advantage like they do in 1.9.
  • Also didn't really like it because that version on Cubecraft has always felt awkward for me to play on when compared to other servers. But hey maybe that's just me!
  • Limitations on maps isn't a big issue now because you no longer need to convert maps like Mirage to a 1.8-friendly map.
  • Future updates should be somewhat easier to deal with (?)


tl;dr
So in short, could there be a possibility of adding Classic FFA back? It's got a loyal fan base even in the lowest of its history. If not immediately, maybe some time in the future? Most of us don't exactly want to or can't switch to bedrock to experience the same mechanics, because frankly... it isn't the same.

🙏 I really want Classic PvP back
I used to play Classic PvP, when they removed it I was so sad and then they added the "real" 1.8.
It wasn't the same, hence I stopped playing. Bedrock is also not the same like 1.8 or Classic PvP.
I really see this as a big opportunity to add Classic PvP back!
I'd love to see it.

I agree with this. I've been playing this server for years mainly for the 1.8 ffa gamemode and I'm sad to hear they are taking it away :/. Plus it gives a choice of combat. Would love to see 1.8 classic come back !
