Adding compasses to UHC

[Lepzi]

So the games take a really long time... Until it gets to deathmatch which takes a long time for deathmatch.

So there should be some way to find your closest player like a player compass, I think more people would like it as the games wouldn't take as long.

Should it be added? Let me know!

I don't think compasses are really needed, as most of the people hunting for the leaderboards are going to get boosted. If compasses existed, all the better players would just hunt for players instead of playing the game. UHC is supposed to be hard and tough, having a compass makes it super easy.

Deathmatches are usually shorter, as the space you're given is less. So I don't think this is a good suggestion for normal UHC. Even in Speed UHC, I don't think this is a good idea. Compasses never existed and shouldn't exist. If you're looking for people to kill go to the center of the map.

Maybe i'm not really sure.
But I think it would be cool it be able to craft a compass to track players.

Games don't take long enough in my opinion. Mostly due to the fact that there's such a drastic reduction in the amount of ores compared to vanilla worlds.
Adding a compass would actually make the game more fun in my opinion, it gets a little boring mining stone for 99% of the game.

Maybe add a kit for it, and plus the game lasts way too long I see other servers with compasses it makes the game so much easier, I played at least 6 games of UHC since its been out, and every game I have been hunting players for like 20 minutes which is just frustrating, sure pro players may use them to go hunt/kill everyone, but don't forget this is UHC so there hearts wont regen which means when it comes to the last fight, and the other player is there with full hearts and your there clueless of what to do because you have no hearts, its all about using the compasses wisely and being smart about the way you play.

Still, hunting isn't a really popular strat among famous UHC players. but I get what you're trying to say. (Remember it's just MY opinion)

I agree plus I don't like going mining due to skeletons constantly bowing me to death.

That's only because in a real uhc, you actually have ores to mine, enchanting to do, apples to cover in gold.
This uhc has none of that.
The point is, there's nothing to do in this uhc other than mine stone constantly looking for diamonds that you're rarely going to find.

Get yourself a shield buddy, skeletons can't penetrate the shield so they're very easy to take out.

True didn't think of that I got to find out how to make it first.

Personally I haven't played UHC yet, since Im banned :P But Im looking forward to it. @Chimpeeze Really? I thought it was just like the other UHCs, I haven't played one game yet :D

I don't want compasses at all. For me the selling point of UHC over survival games is the PvE and mining phase in the beginning, I think with compasses there would probably always be that one guy that got lucky and had full iron after a few minutes going around killing people.
If you start a UHC you know it's going to take long, and in the end you'll either get the deathmatch or a glowing effect in a small area.

I'd rather see a more normal ore generation and a classic vanilla map option than this.

It's nothing like real uhc. It's all custom worlds, I haven't seen any natural structures, ie village, mineshaft. There's barely any ores. Probably the worst uhc I've played.

Uhc is about mining?
Of course that's the best part of it, but it gets a little boring mining all that stone for the whole game.
If they don't correct the ore generation then they should add a compass to stop people being so bored.
