Hi everyone, I played a few games of Beta Eggwars. And be sure I have some things to say about it! I'll try to be as clear as possible, and promise to not keep it short!
I'll be comparing it a lot with "normal" Eggwars to really show some differences that are good and some that are bad. the order in which I write things is not special and just random.
Here we go!
As everyone noticed Beta Eggwars has a different shop that claims to be faster:
While the new buy system may or may not be faster, (more on this later). The placement of the item in the shop is what annoys me most! Take a look at the blocks section before,
Now take a look at the one in Beta Eggwars
As I agree that having a different slot for a different amount of blocks is a bit pointless. They made a big mistake. Buying blocks is not the upper left corner any more! This might not seem like a big deal to most players but for the players who play a lot and have made buying the right stuff a muscle memory, me included, this is a nightmare! You but the wrong things. With blocks this is not that much of a problem since builders are overpowered, more on that later!
The biggest problem is the food section!
Buying steak is 4 to left and 2 down, counted from the upper left corner.
In the new shop,
That place is carrots, carrots! Since I mostly play overpowered, buying carrots is straight up stupid, saturation is a big thing in Eggwars (1,9+) for regeneration, carrots give nothing compared to steak, that's why we buy steak (12,8 sat.) It gave the most saturation. Now the new food source, golden carrots gives more saturation (14,4 sat.) This may not seem like a big difference but it is! Since most players eat from the moment they need to eat, this makes a huge difference! The change in placement has made me, and probably a lot fo other players with muscle memory to be buying the wrong item, yes we could just learn to use the new placed. But I think making the placed back to normal (compact but in the right slot) is a better idea.
On top of that, golden carrots where previously exclusive to the rabbit kit. I use this kit all the time and feel a bit betrayed, the golden carrots where an amazing thing of the kit (for the saturation) but now you can just but them in the shop. I'd like to see them remove to be honest.
This being said, the shop is slower for me now. xD
About the new items,
Milk: No idea why you would but it, please enlighten me!
Ladder: Nice, ladder saves but *cough* Bedwars *cough* xD
Wood: Please removed it, Eggwars had the amazing point of only needing a pickaxe to break the egg fast! This should stay so! And again *cough* Bedwars *cough.
It's something that changes the game for ever, yes! I'm not saying it should be removed but it needs a gigantic nerf!
It's 18 iron for 20 blocks that is placed in about 10 seconds. 20 Blocks without builder costs 7 iron which is less but you can't place them in 10 seconds plus you risk getting shot of. I would ask for a 1 iron a block in the bridge builder and 1 block a second to make it more balanced!
Since a lot of players who have worked hard to speed/ breezily bridge feel really sad :( (That's not the real reason, the real reason is that they are crazy overpowered!)
The 30 block one that can be bought with emeralds has to get way more expensive or removed. That's an insta bridge to most islands, which is not something that shouldn’t be able to be bought for this price.
The wall builder seems fine to me and has a lot of amazing uses! The stair builder has to be last fast, and the nerd pole is something nice but I don't see myself using it very soon since it uses are very limited, and the price is not worth it in my opinion.
OK, now the premise of the update, emeralds! I do like that the shop is "close" to the emerald generator it makes mid more valuable!
- Speed spot
- Endermite
- Leap feather
- Blast ball
About the placement of emerald gen/shop. This has to be rethought, it has to be fair for everyone. The shop and gen have to be connected by land at all times or with a maximum of a three block jump.! I think this is really a must!
It needs a lot of updates to be balanced, and the shop has to be remade. A lot of bugs have to be fixed, liek that you can't play half health. xD
Just something extra, why did you change the indicator for when a team has an egg, it looks weird and really seems a bit pointless... it doesn’t change it thing just makes looking at the scoreboard unfamiliar...
Whatever happens to this gamemode, no matter the situation. It must never replace "normal" Eggwars!
I'd really like to see what you guys thing of what I think and about the gamemode itself!
