Hello CubeCrafters!

It's been a busy few months here at CubeCraft HQ for everyone, the whole team have been busy working on new games, new maps and plenty of updates to the games you love! Our aim since the start of summer has been to deliver you new content at least every two weeks, and we've been hard at work giving you just that!
This week, I'm super happy to bring you a SkyWars update that I've been working on...

CHESTS

Following your feedback on the forums, we've rebuilt whole chest system from the ground up! Starter Island Chests are now weighted meaning everyone will get a fair playing field on equipment - For example, getting a good sword means that your armour will be weaker and vice versa. Alongside this change, every starter island will have food and blocks to survive and you'll no longer get duplicate things like armour pieces, like 3 helmets on your starter island! (This mostly affects Solo SkyWars) Furthermore, there are no more hidden or difficult to access chests on the starter islands, this will make it easier than ever to grab your gear and get into some PVP super fast!

Something I'm super excited about is the chest refilling in both solo and team mode. There is now a timer on the scoreboard which shows when chests are next being refilled.

The refill timer.

This time varies for each map to ensure a fair balance of refills. Smaller maps, for example, refill slightly quicker, but on average it’s every 5 minutes. Within these refills you'll now also find more Enderpearls to help combat those ridiculously long games!

MAPS

Along with the updates to the actual game, we've got some new maps to introduce for you! Luke and the rest of the build team have been hard at work, so there are 5 new maps along with a few subtle changes to existing maps.

MODES

We also know that not everyone enjoys Projectile PvP on SkyWars and as such have added a projectile options which you can choose from. This lets you choose one of three options.

No Projectiles - Chests do not have projectiles and projectile kits are not usable.
Normal Projectiles - The standard, normal mode.

Soft Blocks - Just for fun! This keeps loot same, but will make snowballs, eggs, exp bottles and arrows break blocks on contact. You can break through walls and stop those campers!

We also heard your feedback and noticed that very few players played, or liked, the "No Kits & Abilities Mode" so this has been removed to allow other games to fill up faster.

KITS

Again, we have listened to the communities opinions on kits, and as such, we have balanced all kits to make the game much more fun and enjoyable for everyone. The OP Swordsman kit for example, is no longer as OP it used to be.
Along with the balancing, we have added 4 new kits:

Farmer (500 points)
Golden Hoe (Fire aspect I).
Golden Pants (Protection I).
3 Golden Carrots.
Spawn with 5 Chickens when game starts.

Healer (1150 points)

Potion of Healing II.
Splash Potion of Healing I.
Splash Potion of Regeneration (10 seconds).

View attachment 138083

ABILITIES

Alongside the new kits, we have also got 6 new abilities to show you! These can be bought in the Shop just like normal.

Enderproof -
Chance of not taking enderpearl damage.
AutoSmelt - Instantly smelt ores when mining.
Void Treasure - Get a random item from enemy inventory after pushing them into void.
Extra Protection - Get an extra protection enchantment for random equipment after getting a kill.
Projectile Magnet - Pick up projectiles that hit you.
Quick Heal - Get a splash potion of health after killing someone.

STATISTICS & ASSISTS

Finally, we've also added Kill Assists into team SkyWars, so you know just how much help you were to your fellow teammate. Assisting with kills now gives you hot bar message, showing how much % of the total damage you did to the enemy. There is also a Kill Counter next to all the names so you know exactly how many kills everyone is on.

Further to this, when there’s a kill with assists you can now see in chat exactly how many people assisted with that kill, and hovering over the assist message shows how much damage each person did. Kill Assists will give you 1 point if the amount of damage you dealt was less than 50%, 2 points if it’s more than 50% while getting a kill gives you 3 points. Dying in a team game will now also give you a win if your team wins.

View attachment 138085
View attachment 138086

Alongside these Assist statistics, we've also added current game statistics which will show after you die or game ends. This shows : what place you got, how long you survived, number of kills, number of assists and bow accuracy (percentage of arrows that hit an enemy) We've added auto re-spawn which means when you die, you'll no longer have to click a respawn button.

That's the problem, it was too good. All kits should be valuable in some way, but a few kits were by far better than others. They also nerfed the iron golem by giving it less armor and the scout by giving it speed 1 instead of speed 2. Also the enchanter/anvil combo could be less op now that knockback and punch only occur on higher levels, although that was more or less ruined by adding thousands of xp bottles.

The chest refill and stats at the end of the game has just something similar to Hypixel, but we still didn’t copy it from them. Majority of the people asked for chest refill and etc, we gave it to them. We can’t satisfy everyone, which is why we try to satisfy most of our players. You can like it or not, i’m sorry, but most players voted for these changes. Btw, there is no need to fix the game as it already is fixed, just not in the way you want it to :).
Most people aren't good at the game. They think camping is the name of the game so that is why they want it. Every game now I have campers that hide in blocks in their islands until 1-2 refills then they come at me with stupidly OP armor and weapons.

Hello CubeCrafters!

It's been a busy few months here at CubeCraft HQ for everyone, the whole team have been busy working on new games, new maps and plenty of updates to the games you love! Our aim since the start of summer has been to deliver you new content at least every two weeks, and we've been hard at work giving you just that!
This week, I'm super happy to bring you a SkyWars update that I've been working on...

CHESTS

Following your feedback on the forums, we've rebuilt whole chest system from the ground up! Starter Island Chests are now weighted meaning everyone will get a fair playing field on equipment - For example, getting a good sword means that your armour will be weaker and vice versa. Alongside this change, every starter island will have food and blocks to survive and you'll no longer get duplicate things like armour pieces, like 3 helmets on your starter island! (This mostly affects Solo SkyWars) Furthermore, there are no more hidden or difficult to access chests on the starter islands, this will make it easier than ever to grab your gear and get into some PVP super fast!

Game in play.

Something I'm super excited about is the chest refilling in both solo and team mode. There is now a timer on the scoreboard which shows when chests are next being refilled.

View attachment 138084
The refill timer.

This time varies for each map to ensure a fair balance of refills. Smaller maps, for example, refill slightly quicker, but on average it’s every 5 minutes. Within these refills you'll now also find more Enderpearls to help combat those ridiculously long games!

View attachment 138067
An example chest refilling.

MAPS

Along with the updates to the actual game, we've got some new maps to introduce for you! Luke and the rest of the build team have been hard at work, so there are 5 new maps along with a few subtle changes to existing maps.

MODES

We also know that not everyone enjoys Projectile PvP on SkyWars and as such have added a projectile options which you can choose from. This lets you choose one of three options.

No Projectiles - Chests do not have projectiles and projectile kits are not usable.
Normal Projectiles - The standard, normal mode.

Soft Blocks - Just for fun! This keeps loot same, but will make snowballs, eggs and arrows break blocks on contact. You can break through walls and stop those campers!

Eggs in Soft Blocks mode, destroying the blocks beneath Rubik's feet!

We also heard your feedback and noticed that very few players played, or liked, the "No Kits & Abilities Mode" so this has been removed to allow other games to fill up faster.

KITS

Again, we have listened to the communities opinions on kits, and as such, we have balanced all kits to make the game much more fun and enjoyable for everyone. The OP Swordsman kit for example, is no longer as OP it used to be.
Along with the balancing, we have added 4 new kits:

Farmer (500 points)
Golden Hoe (Fire aspect I).
Golden Pants (Protection I).
3 Golden Carrots.
Spawn with 5 Chickens when game starts.

Smuggler (850 points)

Enderman (1000 points)

Full Set of Black Leather Armour.
Receive an Enderpearl 2 minutes into the game.
Receive an Enderpearl 5 minutes into the game.
Receive an Enderpearl 10 minutes into the game.

Healer (1150 points)

Potion of Healing II.
Splash Potion of Healing I.
Splash Potion of Regeneration (10 seconds).

View attachment 138083

ABILITIES

Alongside the new kits, we have also got 6 new abilities to show you! These can be bought in the Shop just like normal.

Enderproof -
Chance of not taking enderpearl damage.
AutoSmelt - Instantly smelt ores when mining.
Void Treasure - Get a random item from enemy inventory after pushing them into void.
Extra Protection - Get an extra protection enchantment for random equipment after getting a kill.
Projectile Magnet - Pick up projectiles that hit you.
Quick Heal - Get a splash potion of health after killing someone.

STATISTICS & ASSISTS

Finally, we've also added Kill Assists into team SkyWars, so you know just how much help you were to your fellow teammate. Assisting with kills now gives you hot bar message, showing how much % of the total damage you did to the enemy. There is also a Kill Counter next to all the names so you know exactly how many kills everyone is on.

Further to this, when there’s a kill with assists you can now see in chat exactly how many people assisted with that kill, and hovering over the assist message shows how much damage each person did. Kill Assists will give you 1 point if the amount of damage you dealt was less than 50%, 2 points if it’s more than 50% while getting a kill gives you 3 points. Dying in a team game will now also give you a win if your team wins.

View attachment 138085
View attachment 138086

Alongside these Assist statistics, we've also added current game statistics which will show after you die or game ends. This shows : what place you got, how long you survived, number of kills, number of assists and bow accuracy (percentage of arrows that hit an enemy) We've added auto re-spawn which means when you die, you'll no longer have to click a respawn button.

Hi cubecraft i appreciate your work, but i really dont like the update: 1. chest refills 2. chest items 3. blocks can break with projectiles and the enderman kit
Can you please make skywars old and skywars new so if you like the old one you can play that one, but if you like the new one, you can play that one.

Well, I never post in this forum because I like playing and not posting but due to the things that are happening I am forced to do it.
I gonna give my opinion about this update since skywars is my favorite game of the server and I play cubecraft mainly for its skywars (at least until now). I hope people can read this post to the end, specially staff who decided to change skywars... I gonna give my opinion of SOLO skywars, which is what I play.


Things I like of the update:

-New achievements, I think they are good, they are new objetives to goal without changing the anything in the game. so it's fun.

-New kits, same, they are quite good, you can decide if buy/use them or not.

-New maps. Same case, you can play it just if you want, you decide and personally I like these new maps.

-Statistics. It's very interesting see what is your bow accurancy and how many people you have killed saving you having to count the kills by yourself.

-Some modification of the kits: I like the changed in kits which give you an extra item such as a chainmail chestplate in archer kit or more tnt in some kits.


Things I don't like:

-The mainly mistake of this update are the chests, you tried to be similar to Hypixel, as many people have said, although you say the opposite. I played skywars in cubecraft and not in hypixel precisely for the mechanic of skywars, I do not like to have a lot of -in my opinion- very low level items in the chests and wait for a refill to get better ones. The things I do like of this new chests are that OP games used to be very very OP; so, change this mode added to have blocks for guaranteed and no repeated armor are the only 3 things I like of these new chests. But now I have to play a new OP to be able to play as a normal game used to be. Normal game now are very weak and it may be a bit chaotic because at least I knew the enchantments of every piece of armor so that I could know how the enemy was equipped. Now there are too many different enchantments for the same piece of armor so you don't really know if the enemy is better armored or not.

As opposed, you decide to do weaker (you call it balanced) normal and OP modes but you then give tons of items in refills, included ender pealrs, a very usefull but OP item in my opinion... I like pearls, but I have had like 10 in a normal single game, as I said, too OP.

Another thing that I think it's not ok is to reveal hidden chests, I think they were a nice detail in the games because you had to look it for in the new maps so it forced you to explore your island, this gave you a very slight advantage over the people who don’t know where they are (this does not mean they are worst players, they may be even better in pvp for example), and now you just pick up all the things of the 3 chests one next to each other and run to the next island... you are creating even more rushers... and I remind you this is skywars, not pvp.


-Some modification of the kits: I don't like the changes which delete some items or change them into worse ones such as irom golem or the iron sword with sharpness 2. For example in this last kit, the sword one, it was the one taken by the 90% of the people in all games, in my case I never choose because I consider it useless but I want you to see that things don't have why to like me in order to complain about their changes, I don't want you to think that I write this post just because I liked white and now all is black so I want white back for myself, this is a bad update and I'm trying to make you see it why. Well, coming back to the sword kit, I never choose but I know that it's the favorite of the people and I understand they are displeasd for the change, I can kill someone equipped with that sword in the distance or even in pvp if I am similar armored to the enemy, but people wanted that kit because they always choose it, you just have to play a game to see it, you don't need to read posts of just some part of the gamers of cubecraft. People felt happy with that kit, they felt stronger with it, you can think it's too OP and that's why you decided to downgrade but I don't see it OP because I could beat it easily.

The fact of existing what is considered better items or strategies or whatever you want, force people who want to win to elaborate and think in different and better strategies to beat those others, I think that the key of skywars and not deciding who is better or who take the win just for being better in PVP. I think this is an important idea to think about.


-Changes in maps, this may be more personal than the other things but I want to say it, although I stay as a minory..., I don't like the modifications in Paris map and Sundae map. Starting with Paris, I think that middle ring should not exist, and specially in the middle, I like that there are anvils now, but I don't like that bookcases have dissapeared. Sundae map is even worst, I liked a lot the cake in the middle with anvils, a enchantment table, gold and diamond blocks, now that has dissapeared and there are a horrible outter ring where everyone is going to clean, you pick up the chests quickly and you reach the ring in 2 seconds, ready to do just pvp all the game and since the ring is common to everyone, I have seen like 2 o 3 people waiting a pvp to finish so that they can clean the remaining player, and another cleaner behind that previous one and several times like this.


-Proyectile mode, starting with soft blocks, it may look like fun, as I though of old OP games when I started in cubecraft, but I am pretty sure it's going to become tedious quickly. You complain about camping but you do a mode in which you can destroy every bridge with snowballs.. how are people going to leave their islands? oh yeah with that OP pearls you decided to place... (irony). And what to say about no proyectile mode... what is the icon of skywars? a bow, a game with no proyectiles... no thanks I'm not gonna play that, there is a game in the server called pvp to do that.


To finish this and with the aim of avoiding to become this on a book I gonna do a review

a) Everything that has been added but not changed, I mean, everything new it's ok, it’s fun and I like it. The problems come with things that have been changed, specially chests, I think you may try to appear to other servers... and that's not good, cubecraft must be itselfe.


b) The main problem I see to this update, and I think this is the most impportant is that forum does not reflect the truly opinion of every player of cubecraft, because not everyone come to the forum and reflect their opinion like I have decided to do, in this case against the things. I think that of people who come and express their opinion approximately 70-80% are that kind of people (I say people not to say kids o teens since most of players are under 18) who always say yes to everything and they agree with every change just because staff decide, this is a problem because you don't listen to the truly opinions. Kids/teens always agree for 2 reasons: 1) if they are new, they didn't know how the old cubecraft worked so every change it's ok, this has happened even me in other games out of minecraft, this is not a fault of the age, it's just the moment you join the server. 2) "Rebel or insurgent" people are bad seen, the fact of disagree in staff decisions makes you an outcast person who must be ignored and moved away from the community, when what must be made is having this people as the main point of consultation in those moments you are posing to change something since they provide a critical point of view different to yours.

That's all for the moment and I hope that if you have reached here was by reading everything before. I am very glad of people who read this and I hope it has maked someone think about it (specially some high staff). Now I may receive a lot of hater comments, most of people who has not read the full post or are the case 2) of the section b) but I don't care. So this is my opinio and I had to say it due to the point we have reached.
Thanks,
xaremander
